Look around my Wardrobe

As i sit down to write this very fun blog post- I think to the last time i had written a blog post and that was back in early December. Id firstly like to apologise for this. I had such a magical time around christmas that i just forgot to blog. But here i am- back in the new year and i'm going to kick A**. Ive decided after watching hannah maggs for so long doing flat lays- that i would give it a go. Hopefully this will mean that despite the disgusting weather we've been having, i will still be able to blog.

Vegan Carrot cake

A few weeks ago  I was completely submerged into a Mary Berry cook book and came across a rather scrumptious looking carrot cake. I obviously couldn't just flick the page over as it was screaming out of the book for me to make it so I took myself over to the pantry and picked out the ingredient to assemble this delicious looking beauty.

 You will need;
175g/6fl oz sunflower oil- plus extra for greasing
175g/6 oz dark muscovado sugar
9 table spoons of apple puree
175g/ 6oz of grated carrots
85g/3 oz of saltanas
55g/ 2oz walnut pieces
grated rind of a orange
175g/ 6 oz self raising flour
1tsp bicarbonate of soda
1tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp grated nutmeg

 Whist this cake is delicious as well as being nutritious it is also vegan! So all the vegans out there, watch out this is a heart breaker. First pre heat your oven to 180o c/350o f/ gas mark 4 . Then make a puree of apple. This acts as the eggs and binds the mixture together.

Next grate a carrot. It is the main part in the show, right?

 Add the muscavardo sugar, the apple puree and the oil into a large mixing bowl and mix up until smooth

Next gentally stir in the sultanas and walnut pieces and dont forget the vibrantly orange carrots that really give the carrot cake its name- carrot cake.

 Sift together the flour, bicarbonate of soda, cinnamon and the nutmeg and combine in your large mixing bowl.

 With your oven preheated, place it into the centre of your oven and bake for 40-45 mins. Then remove the cake from the tin and place on a wire rack to cool completely before icing.

By the way- this cake is very delicious if, like me, your the sort of person that likes, nuts, berries etc.

And with that- the end approaches and its time to kiss goodbye. Im going to lounge around next to the blazing whist eating christmas ckae from the church service this morning and drinking very english tea. Good night! Happy sunday!

Leather&Fur

On a cold autumnal day, you would probably find a girl about the age of 14 wandering the local woods. I love the woods, they make me feel so minuscule in comparison to their heights. The tall elegant trees, leaves blowing wild in the wind.

 Trying to look sassy, despite my hair looking like a birds nest.

 So i took it down and restyled to my liking

 Hello? I found a tree, quite a funny sentence when you wandering around a wood right?

 I find it fascinating when the tree grows green moss all over it. I think it looks so fairytale like and as if it had a green wolly coat on- which it obviously hasn't but, i like to believe.

 I cannot pose for any pictures at all. My brain just changes mode and I dont know how to stand or how to even look. I find it so impossible.

 In a mist of this wood is a big wooden house where the forrest school students come and sit around, playing games. It was a very good place to shelter under the rain, which in any case was rather heavy.

 I love these gloves. I just think that they are so nice to look at. I found them at a christmas market 2 years ago and dig them out every winter and wear them loads so que the blog post involving them.

We finished our little blogging photo date with a swing on the rope swing. A very good way to end a very lovely few hours.

P.S Does anyone want more vlogs? Please comment because im being left in the dark a little as to wether i should post them or not.

Lots of love
