I haven't been to David Banns yet, but if this is the kind of soup on the menu, I will be making a point of going the next time I am in that direction. Superb entry to NCR!!!! After a soup like that, I would not want a main and may even skip the dessert!<br /><br />Johanna, although I haven't commented on your blog for a while, I have been reading your entries. Firstly belated Birthday wishes. I liked the novelty cake entry, the butterfly one was my favourite. I especially like the fact you made your own 'camera' cake. I've never made a novelty cake, so really admire your attempts, oneday i'll brave and make one too.<br /><br />As you may know I don't have any children, but I do enjoy reading about your experiences as a mother, returning back to 'paid' work and Sylvia's new experiences - eating: textures and flavours being one of them. <br /><br />Finally, I know the raspberry and white choc chip scones aren't the prettiest, but its not always about looks, but taste. I do Like the addition of lemonade and the use of your beetroot powder. Very pretty to the eye.Shaheenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03602971207085826708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-82968939409844413152010-02-16T03:07:06.918+11:002010-02-16T03:07:06.918+11:00Oh, I can't wait to see the roundup for this. ...Oh, I can't wait to see the roundup for this.
