i 2 like making cakes(much 2 my hubby's delight!!)

yeah this is what i do:

get a calculator, find out how much the ingredients will cost to make the cake, realise it's cheaper to buy one.

Go to tesco, buy cake, eat.

Uncooked cake. =_=

I peeled a apple for the apple and berry crumble, I was meant to help but then it seemed there were already too many hands helping. =( I don't like getting in people's way so I shifted to the side and watched for a bit until I got bored. =P I wanted to make it this time... ='( Buuuut, I left them to it since I'd probably just do everything wrong. *sheds tear*
