A triumph, before and after.....!

Just because I haven't been out of the house for a couple of days doesn't mean that there wasn't a lot of activity going on in my kitchen..Aimee, baker extraordinaire, was whipping up another fabulous creation, this time for my nephew and his wife who both turn 40 within days..I remember 40..just! I know there are quite a few 'foodies' out there that might like to have a little drool over this Black Forrest cake, this one's for you. I took this shot just before leaving home, I'll get back to you in a few hours with a look at the black cherry jam and chantilly cream (with a dash of Kirsch) oozing out between the layers.....

A few hours later and there wasn't much cake left, it was so good! If you fancy checking out the recipe you can see it on Aimee's blog Midnight Pie. Sorry I haven't been around much this weekend,

'mal de têtes' and computer screens are not good bedfellows, will catch up today. Thankfully it's a holiday in Australia today, another day to recover. Hope your week starts well, take care.....
