    Tom and I were invited to the Blogger Bake Off, hosted by Currys and Joe Blogs in Glasgow today. We were really excited to attend, especially after watching a few episodes of The Great British Bake Off earlier in the week.

  2. Checkin at The Cookery School
    1. Edit

      The bake off was being held at The Cookery School which I was excited to see was in the Jacobean Corsetry Building whose sign I've loved for ages.

      Chef Danny started us off by showing us how to make each of the recipes. He made it look really easy and gave us lots of useful tips which I can't wait to try out when baking at home.

    3. Edit

      We were then divided into groups of four and sent off to try out what we had learned by baking scones, a Victoria sponge cake, cupcakes and chocolate chip muffins.

      It was lots of fun and we took turns to beat the eggs, cream the sugar and whisk the batter.

    6. Edit

      We could feel our muscles getting a workout by the end of the day and we were really jealous when we found out that the bakers in the other room had a set of mixers to help them.

    7. Edit

      I was even more jealous when I realised that my nail polish matched one of them perfectly.

    8. Edit

      The highlight of the day was getting to eat our freshly baked scones during the break. They tasted amazing!

    9. Edit

      It was so funny looking at all the scone photos flooding the #CurrysintheKitchen hashtag feed on Instagram.

    10. Edit

      Our boxes were completely full by the end of the day and everything tasted delicious - especially the white chocolate ganache cupcakes with a dark chocolate core.

    11. Edit

      As well as leaving with a huge pile of baked treats, we were each treated to a Kenwood kMix hand mixer and goodies bags filled with baking treats.

    12. Edit

      I can't wait to test out the new mixer on my next recipe, it's so much shinier and prettier than the one we had before.

  3. Checkin at Lego Store

      We popped in to the Lego Store afterwards and wanted to buy everything.

      We settled for making Lego figures of ourselves and one of my Dad too.

  4. Checkin at Stereo Cafe Bar
    1. Edit

      We ended our day with vegan food at Stereo where we tucked into a BLT, stuffed vine leaves, sweet potato fries and parsnip chips.

      It was really tasty that we were looking forward to taking our leftovers home but our waiter dropped them on the floor.
