Minibakebakegirl and I arrived in Edinburgh on Saturday. We stayed at BestFriends on Saturday night, BestFriend and I had our usual horror film fest - watching Wolf Creek and Friday The 13th (2009). We also watched Just Friends which is really funny!
We went for a walk on Sunday at Harlaw Reservoir near The Pentland Hills. The weather wasn't great so we mostly walked through the woods where it was a bit sheltered - it was very windy and it certainly woke us all up.
Today Sister, BrotherinLaw, Minibakebakegirl and I went for lunch at The Fountain. This has has a complete revamp from the dodgy looking pub I remember from when I lived in Edinburgh! I had the steak ciabatta, MBBG had a cheese deli board - we really enjoyed it. For pudding us girlies had Lucas ice-cream - an Edinburgh Institution!
Last week I made Millionaire shortbread, it does take a bit of effort to make due to it's three parts, especially the 'stirring the caramel' time but it is worth it. When it changes to the golden caramel colour I do give a bit of a whoop!! I always associate eating this at BestFriend's Aunt and Uncles firework party along with BestFriend's Mum's Slab cake - which I still need to get the recipe for!
You can find the recipe here.
Yum - my work colleagues enjoyed it!
Hope to see you next week,
Bakebakegirl
