Entertaining Solo... Kinda

What a week it's been. After being unwell, and Hubsand being away while I was unwell, getting more unwell, getting slightly better, taking Hubsand for knee surgery, him not recovering well at all, hosting our neighbours party and just generally struggling to make everything fit in to my day, I find time to post.

Dinner was great. Ended up doing a roast pork, some roast veg and braised fennel and garlic for dinner. Delish. hard work though when you have to look after a crippled hubby, 3 year old going stir crazy in the wet weather, cook, clean and be awesome!

I did however, manage a cake too. It was a bit of a head turner. I saw this a while back on the beantown baker blog, and needed it in my belly!

A gorgeous lemon layer cake with raspberry curd (why did no one ever tell me I could curd the house down with other fruits? I lurve lemon curd, but this is amazing!) and lemon buttercream. I think next time i'd perhaps go a whipped cream topping on top, just to lighten it up a little. Yum.

Now all I need to achieve this week is to get hubby's knee in working order so I can get back to actually getting things done, and to not have to clean up after myself.
