Sorry that it has been a bit quiet over here at “A Spoonful of Sugar”. Due to a computer malfunction on DS’s computer we had to re-load a lot of software and updates again which used up most of our monthly broadband allowance – we are on strict internet rations for the next two weeks so I apologise for not answering emails and leaving comments!
Sarah and I are having a run of good luck lately. We recently won a giveaway over at Lucky Frog and Rumi sent us this very clever and practical reusable gift bag – it is such a brilliant idea! She also popped in some cupcakes and sprinkles fabric for us (she knows us too well)- thanks again Rumi!
We are having some cold and wet weather here over the past weeks. I have been running up some lavender and wheat bags for gifts.
Over the weekend, I made up a batch of apple and custard cupcakes – they got the seal of approval from the family so will be making more of these. They have a delicious custard filling in the centre of the cake – yummm. You can find the recipe at Sugar Fish. Thanks Ruth!

i want to make those cupcakes but wonder where i can get custard powder! Glad your computer is up and running again.
Will you stop with all that scrummy baking already?! I’m going to have to start working out prior to visiting.
Silly question – but where does one purchase the wheat for the wheat bags? I have my own lavendar patch but don’t know where to look for the wheat.
Great gifts!
Happy Day!

Great prizes. And what yummy looking goodies (fabric and eating kind)!
Congratulations on your recent win. Cupcakes (both kinds) and sprinkles – how delicious! Your lavender and wheat bags look soooo good – are they meant to be used as eye bags?
Sorry about the computer problems, those are never, ever fun.

Congratulations on winning some great stuff! Those apple cupcakes look so good! I’m gonna have to try them!
thoes cupcakes do look very good!
Sounds like a lovely weekend. Hopefully your computer problems are under control, that can be such a pain.
Apple and custard muffins are a favorite in our house, think we must have a slightly different recipe, ours have like a crumble topping on them. Think I may go and whip some up now for lunches – yum!
How do we live without computers these days! send some of that rain over here please.
The cupcakes look so yummy!
Congrats on your winnings!
Good luck with the computer issues.
