I absolutely love Sundays! We start with a walk with WIlbur (our dog) to get coffee from the cafe down the road, followed by an epic big Sunday breaky together as a family. I get lost for hours in my garden, and I shop, prep, cook and bake for the week ahead. I love using plates and cooking utensils that were my Nan’s, it make cooking that little more special.
Today I whipped up a chocolate brownie and some banana & maple syrup muffins and they are so good, so thought I would share the recipes with you! I hope you are having a wonderful weekend too.
