Plum Cake... Amazon... self delusion...

 Egad, my i-phone is a bad bad thing.

I took a photo of these 2 books whilst on holiday and browsing a Book Shop.

Then, on an evening lying in my bed, i found these photos and had placed my order on Amazon before you could say: "stop it you crazed bedded down i-phone shopping NutJob"

 But by Golly they are Jolly!!

And then there is this self-delusional element that makes us feel....

that when they arrive in the post - they have somehow been GIFTED to us by Amazon themselves.

We conveniently forget that we did, in fact, pay for these books.

 Sigh - pretty pages.

The DK Preserves Book is especially great and i am just putting in my shopping order (online of course) to make up some Kilner Jars of Potted Peppers, some Elderberry Cordial and Fig Jam.

I usually shop online but i am especially shopping online forever more as i bought a new car last week and have a morbid mistrust of OTHER DRIVERS in any Car Park!!

 In the meanwhile - Plum Tray Bake Cake!

Made from the Plums down at my Brother's house.

 Just scrumptious...!

Now Lord, would it be too much to ask, to send me a big burly man with a love of sport and the healthy appetite that might appreciate Sweet Honey Plum cake?

Yes, his amazing sporty physique would be a bonus,  But truly he would be doing me a great service (!) if he were to come and help me eat cake and the such.

Here's hoping.
