Lamingtons……eh

I thought I would do something lovely for Andrew to say thanks for looking after me the last couple of weeks.  I know the way to Andrew’s heart is through baked goods!  So I thought I would make his all time favorite …… lamingtons.  Lets just say I had the best intentions and I am still searching for the perfect lamington recipe. The sponge was very heavy and the chocolate sauce……ewwww!   My first attempt was not so successful.  I’m hoping to redeem myself on the second attempt.  Anyone have a good recipe?

I Plan….

I plan!  I plan everything.  I am continually analyzing, worrying and planning in my head.    I like to know what is ahead of me.  I have always been like this. I am continually trying to keep to a plan.  I can  feel my body tense when my plan is delayed or adjusted.   But in light of recent events I realize that you just can’t plan  everything.  Life has a way of making you stop and reflect.  Planning has become exhausting and I beginning to think a little over rated!  So I thought I would try this……
