Little bit of a treat..
Hello all ,how are you today?
Its been lovely here today..sunny and a bit chilly in the wind ..still nice enough for a walk up to the Post Office..i reckon the woman who works there has either had complaints about her manner or a personality transplant..she couldn't have been nicer today..amazing..i was gobsmacked to be honest and kept looking to see if anyone was watching her and how she interacts with customers..well i hope it lasts..much more of a pleasant experience today.
Anyway i decided to treat us all at the weekend and make a Cheesecake..it was gorgeous and i had lovely comments from my hubby and children on it..its not often i make these as they are really tempting and to be honest one slice is not enough.
It is so easy to make and even easier to eat.
Whilst it was chilling i wrapped up parcels from my Ebay sales..this is my Pushchair that sold quite fast and was sent today via Parcelforce..cost an arm and a leg but i hope the lady likes it.
Then i sat down to enjoy a slice of pure heaven..
We treated the girls to some little Chocolates..they don't have sweets or chocolate very often..not that i am mean or anything but they prefer fruit and Chocolate is a proper treat.
We have some Cheesecake left and hubby and i will enjoy that with a coffee tomorrow..
How about you ladies what is the treat that you love but don't have that often it becomes boring.

I adore homemade cheesecake; yours looks delicious. Postage is so expensive nowadays. You should perhaps look into alternative ways of sending your parcels; I've used CollectPlus with great results...approx half the price of ParcelForce for larger parcels and I can take mine to a local store instead of having to go to the post office.
ReplyDeleteHi Helen..thank you..i will look into sending larger parcels via elsewhere than the one i used..

Oh yum, that looks very tempting. I am supposed to be calorie counting and would hate to count the calories in that. I wouldn't be able to just eat one slice...... no willpower whatsoever
ReplyDeleteHi Cherie..i am on a diet along with my husband..but Cheesecake needs eating lol..i have no willpower either so one slice is never enough

Yum. Pineapple upside down is my favourite special pud.
ReplyDeleteHi Trish..o i love that pudding but our son is allergic to Pineapples so we can't have them near us..poor lad..

I knit blankets etc for charities and have discovered My Hermes is much cheaper. For a small extra charge they will collect from you, and it is still far less expensive. Pam
ReplyDeleteHi Pam..i use Hermes for my smaller parcels as they collect..its much easier..

I once slipped up and made a cheesecake with a tub of garlic cream cheese, rather weirdly it was still pretty edible, well Lovely Hubby thought so ... he polished off the lot over the course of a couple of days.
ReplyDeleteWow..just wow..god bless that man..i really don't like Garlic..i almost fainted once when a lady was next to me in a hot shop..i was pregnant at the time but as she turned i got the full force of Garlic ..it made me queasy..Garlic is ok in small doses but i reckon she had bathed in it..lol
