Couple of firsts

While at Mum's today I made a Parkin for the first time ever.
And before anyone says anything it's supposed to sink in the middle


And at home this evening I tried my hand at Shortbread, it turned out well and Mel's DBF found it very hard to keep his hands off it which is why there are a couple missing


And a follow up to yesterday's post about the hats.
The regional TV station went and filmed a piece for the news today which they broadcast this evening so if your interested you can watch it here

Having no idea what a parkin is I'll just say it looks awesome! Now shortbread I know. I love me some shortbread!

Your baking looks great, there's nothing quite like the smell of home baking in the house.

I am loving the Parkin - I had to look it up on the WEB to find out what one is - and am now fascinated.... would you post your recipe?
