Cherry Iced CAkes

I can hardly believe it is Friday, the end of the week and the start of a new part of my life - moving house. We are finally on the move over the next few days. Boxes will be moving backwards and forwards transporting our lives. I am almost packed, just that special little box that has to have everything in it for the move: tea, mugs, milk, towels, light bulbs, pen, paper, corkscrew, champagne and glasses and of course car keys and pet food.
However before the move can start I have to work at school on Saturday morning for two hours at our Open Morning. We have three Open Mornings each year where prospective parents can come and meet us, bring their children and have an experience of some of the classes. Of course being the Home Economics teacher I put on a show and this year I have a small group of children making Cherry Iced Cakes.

Photograph will be added over the weekend when I see how the cakes turn out and I have unpacked a few boxes and of course got the computer to work.
Have a nice weekend.
