Everything About Sarah..

One of the main things I've been doing through lock down is baking and cooking -I've always loved baking and cooking but I normally only get time to cook dinner nowadays so I thought I'd make the most of it and get on Pinterest for some cheeky ideas and recipe inspiration and give them ago. I've got lots of recipes to post that I've loved doing but a Gin & Tonic Lemon cake was definitely one of my favs- Nick's too.

It's super easy to make and realllllly yummy - this will be a perfect Summer Party (if we're allowed them!) cake:

INGREDIENTS:

FOR CAKE:
250g Caster Sugar
250g Butter
250g Self Raising Flour
5 Eggs
50ml Gin

So that's what I'm going to do (£100 says by the end of the year I've given up again) - but I've dug out my old blog planners and set myself targets and lists of what I'm going to post about so here we go!
