We had a lovely sun shiny day today, grandchildren had a bonfire and toasted marshmallows,
I did them some baked bananas filled with white and dark chocolate
to have, after a lunch of pitta bead humus and salad, they had the baked bananas with ice cream.
This afternoon they went Blackberry picking
First of the season
Between them they made a crumble
It also has some of the dried apple flakes in and has been sprinkled with Date Sugar and Orange zest,
They are still full from a dinner of roast pork so it will be supper served with cream.
Tomorrow they are off home, then it will be just me and Sol again,
Its been lovely having them and it will be nice to get back to a normal routine :-)
Damn will you adopt me as a grandchild please?
ReplyDeleteOf course I will :-)
DeleteBet the grandkids have loved spending time with you. Good that you had sunshine - we didn't until about 5 pm!
ReplyDeleteThe Bank Holiday wasnt too bad weather wise we ad a good variation but it didnt stop the kids :-)
DeletePlease do tell me how you do those baked bananas (my favourite fruit)
ReplyDeleteI have posted it on the next post, I think they are in my list of top fruits :-)
DeleteYummy!!!! How long did the banana,s take...think Little Miss would like those and Daddy of course. Safe journey for Martin and the kids too. What a busy few days,
ReplyDeleteBet Sol will miss his visitors too..xx
20 mins in a hot oven, I think Sol is getting use to visitors coming and going now when he sees the bags he knows they are going again :-)
DeleteI remember doing those bananas on the bbq when we were younger, might have to try them with my girls x
ReplyDeleteWelcome New, I love baked bananas and have them drizzled with honey hubby isnt a banana fan :-)
DeleteSounds like a delicious crumble! I am not a fan of bananas like that, but I know many are so I am sure they were loved too! xx
ReplyDeletemix feelings from the kids over them, but they tried them, the crumble went down very well :-)
DeleteSounds like you had a cracking day! Glad you enjoyed yourselves so much. In some ways I envy that you can have such pleasureable and intense family socialising mixed with lots of time of just you and the dog; a very appealing mix. Hope everything is going well for you on your smallholding.
