Cooking with Lizzie

I have been teaching Lizzie to cook on the Aga, which involved a lot of spoon licking and testing!  She knows how to weigh out butter and sugar and crack eggs into the mix and how to add the flour gradually.  We put her cake into the top roasting oven, using the cold shelf to slow down the cooking process.  Lizzie found it impossible to wait, and kept having to look!  Fortunately, this didn’t spoil the cake!  Thank you Aga.

Icing was another thing – she wanted it to be white and used ‘Way too Pink’ glitter in vast quantities.  Lovely cake though!  Lovely Lizzie!
