Fruit cake

It's very exciting. I made my own fruit cake last night!! I know that doesn't sound much. But for years I've asked my mum to make our Christmas cake, and any other fruit cake in between. However, I decided to give it a go myself, and got my mums recipe last week. So, last night, after taking Oscar for a walk, I took the plunge.......

Of course, I had to sample a small piece ..... And, even if I say so myself, it tastes good! 

Walking with Oscar was lovely. I took him by the canal again, where I've been taking him all week. It was so peaceful again ....

And this weekend it's Easter. An extra long weekend! Hopefully we'll get chance to go out walking at least one day, and visit our mums. The weather forecast isn't looking too good though, which is typical - nice while we're working, wet when we're off. We might end up with just a run out somewhere in the van. Fingers crossed for a walk though ....
