Looking forward to....

 I am counting the sleeps at present because this weekend I am doing a Mexican cooking class with two very special friends.  Ole!
Recently I had a super fun day with two of my favourite people...
with DD and my very dear friend, we attended a class, " A Passion for Pastry"...
the apron says it all!
We made profiteroles with vanilla bean patisserie...super yum!
We had a choice of sweet or savoury shortcrust pastry. The others made super delish quiches while I made a Poached Pear and Frangipane tart...divine!!!
It was so much fun and Jace, our teacher was fabulous and very patient.
It was so much fun that we booked in for the Mexican class!
Sadly DD isn't coming this time, but her stand in will be lots of fun!
So, what did I do with that container full of profiteroles? 
Fed the neighbours! Hopefully I haven't raised their expectations of the new neighbour!
Not sure if I will be cooking Mexican for them?

    That's it, I've decided. It is definitely time I visited you for a stitching weekend. I LOVE profiteroles. They are in my top 5 favourite desserts.
