April is going to be an exciting month! I’m going on 2 cake-making courses with my friend Naomi in the next couple of weeks. The first one is being held this coming Saturday at Poringland village hall, and involves learning how to cover and decorate your very own chocolate cake, how to make chocolate fans and chocolate roses. Then a week later, we will be going to London to do a course about making a double-height stacked cake. We’ll be staying in the same bed and breakfast that we stayed in when we did the cupcake course in December 2010. I’m really looking forward to it.
I’ve had a 4-day weekend for the Easter holidays. On Saturday I went out with my friends Naomi, Sarah, Gemma and Kay for a meal at Frankie & Benny’s restaurant, and then we had a couple of games of 10-pin bowling at Hollywood Bowl. This was my belated birthday party and Easter party! My actual birthday is in February but as not all my friends are around then, I usually have my party at Easter. The food at Frankie & Benny’s was good, although the service was very slow this time. We ordered our meals at 7pm but we didn’t get them until 50 minutes later! It’s not usually that slow, although my friend said the manager (who is one of her neighbours) was on holiday, and it was also rather busy. This made us a bit late for the 10 pin bowling, which was booked for 8.30pm, but we asked them to hold the lane for us. I had a cajun chicken burger with fries for my main course, with a sorbet for dessert (I was too full up to manage a sundae!) I came 2nd in the first game of bowling, which Gemma won, but I didn’t do so well in the 2nd game. Overall it was a really good night.
I’ve been extra busy at work recently – I’ve got several projects on the go, and I’ve been asked to do overtime in the evenings, creating mobile-enabled websites. It all seems to be going well though.
A couple of weeks ago we went on a daffodil walk at Blickling Gardens, which was nice.
