Finally the weekend is here (and I am not wishing my life away :-). I just need a break. Week was very busy. John's little boy will be christened at the weekend and he asked me to provide the chocolates for little favours. So I made white vanilla truffles and milk chocolates filled with hazelnut truffles. A few years ago, a friend of mine went to the States to visit his sister and I beg him to get me some stuff from Wilton as they do not ship outside US (now you can get it in Brennan's). Anyway, he got m
e some moulds for chocolates. B
ut now they are getting old (were just dead cheap stuff to begin with) and it is a nightmare to get the chocolate out of the mould. So if anyone knows where I can get professional second hand moulds...I'll take them. I also need a tempering machine as the 'cheap' method doesn't work anymore (adding cold chocolate to the melted one)...Since I love making them, I think I should invest in some good equipment....anyway, what else is on...
NO IDEA....was so busy that the world passed me by.....
I only know that the annual Lee Swim Registration Deadline is tomorrow. The swim itself takes place 19th July....Check http://www.corkmasters.ie/ for registration info or call into Vibes & Scribes (Bridge Street or Lavitt's Quay).
I for my part will take it dead easy this weekend. Will meet with Wendy tomorrow morning (and maybe Carol and Sofie are joining us) and we will head to Fire & Ice in Midleton for some nice breakfast, brunch or early lunch....depending what time we are getting there. Will of course have a stroll through the market - haven't been there in such a long time.
And that's it for now....wishing you all a great weekend ;-)
