A.W.O.L

I haven't been around for a little while as I'm sure you're aware, but I sort of had an excuse in that I was busy planning a wedding, then getting married, then having various after wedding celebrations and I just got back from Honeymoon in the beautiful Lake Garda yesterday. 

I have, though, come back refreshed with lots if ideas for cooking simple Italian dishes. Sadly I have also come back with a body that is probably at least 40% gelato. There were some dicey moments by the pool where Green Peace thought I'd beached myself and were making desperate attempts to return me to the sea!

So, fresh and light and healthy meals it will be until I return to something not so akin to Pavarotti's more obese sister.  

Here are some pictures of my wedding cake that I was made by my own fair hand. 

 and a picture of me enjoying one of many cocktails whilst in the sunshine in Lake Garda.

Wonderful news to come back with. Congratulations. Much joy to you both. Your cake is gorgeous but I would not have expected anything less from you. You have an enviable talent.

Love the cupcake tree! Beautiful! We did cupcake trees for our son's garden wedding in June. They turned out quite well (though not as impressive as yours! I really like the holders) Are you going to share your recipe?
