I started #GBBOTwitterBakeAlong but had to leave unfinished, as was prepping for visitors in a couple of weeks. Dairy Free chocolate cake layers ready and some dairy free shortbread. Now in the freezer.

We are ready 🎃 👻 #Halloween

Chocolate and orange self saucing pudding - turned into a cake size - well go big or go home as @thebakingnanna1 says 🫣. Tastes really good #GBBOTwitterBakeAlong @Rob_C_Allen

Remembering my brother who we lost 7 years ago 💔

Wallpaper going up 🙂

A little later than usual, but it begins 🎄 Now to wrap them up. Mostly on free electric with @OctopusEnergy 🎅🏻

In London. Jumped a black cab from restaurant to Theatre due to one in our party having mobility issues. The cab driver wouldn’t charge us. How fab and generous is that. #blackcab

Our last night on the ship. Cocktails, desserts and amuse bouche #cruise

Now homeward bound. Arrival in the UK this morning. A fabulous time #cruise

A sea day today, a bit windy as we enter the Bay of Biscay but sun is shining ☀️

Best main meal so far. Belly pork, it was delicious - scallops and prawns, soup and a Yorkshire mess which I’d never heard of and I’m from Yorkshire 🤷‍♀️

A day in Tangier #cruise

Still eating well 😬 - hotpot, carrot cake and strawberry delice PS I didn’t have 2 puddings 😳

Palma in #Mallorca what a lovely place #cruise

Chicken ballotine for dinner, forgot to take a photo of pudding. Petit fours and a cocktail 🍸

A lovely day in Mallorca visiting a village called Valldemossa

Surf and turf with Chocolate hazelnut pudding diary free. Hubby had chicken ham and leek pie #cruisingméxico

Another day and another meal. Beef stroganoff, fruit crumble and petit fours. All dairy free. The raspberry was all chocolate and delicious 🤤

A great way to start the morning. Sailing into Minorca at sunrise. 🚢

A lovely day in Monaco. Lots of walking up and down hills 🚶
