X-factor!!

HI!!!

Its Friday & I am so excited for the X Factor I am practically jumping out of my seat!!!
I'm not so sure it will be as good without Simon Cowell's meanness or Cheryl Cole always saying how everyone's right up her street!
& Dannii's minoge (I always thought she was the most friendly)
But I bet it will still be great!!!!

That's right it's smurf time !!!

we're going to see smurfs the movie, I am so excited.

I have never seen a episode of smurfs before. I think it will be FAB! The trailer was hilarious! They gave it an awful review of 2 star though.

see ya!!

smurf update!!!

It was great although it so deserves a 4 star rather than 2 

& did you know smurfette's (the female smurf) voice was done by Katy Perry!

Any way I think it was a FAB film well worth watching!

bye!:)

Going bonkers for BANANAS!!!

photo by ME!!!

A  couple of days ago I had a theory that the over ripe Bananas,

in the fruit bowl would be brilliant to make a banana cake!

So we made our banana cake .

I even got to dip my finger in the golden syrup, YUM!!

We were very proud  of our cake  & took our first bit!

hmm....

It was a bit soggy at the bottom but it was still delicious!

    

Fab banana cake recipe!!!!!         

You'll need ...

3 large ripe bananas (over ripe even better)

225 g (8 oz) self raising flour

175 g (6 oz) caster suger

100 g (4 oz) unsalted butter

2 eggs

2 table spoons of golden syrup

a pinch of salt

1 Pre-heat the oven to 150 degrees. Peel the bananas, slice into a bowl & mash until smooth with a fork . Beat until all the remaining ingredients are combinded

with the bananas. This can always be done in blender.

2 Spoon the mixture into a greased  900 g (2 lb) loaf tin & bake 1 1/4 hours until risen & firm to touch  leave to rest for around 12 mins before taking out its tin.

WOO-HOO! You have a FAB banana cake!

   Today I went to the zoo & there   were loads of cute monkeys
in this brilliant enclosure!
It was like a little building they had  made in to a rain forest
with all the monkeys running about!
It was like a rain forest in middle
    and there were high platforms for us to stand on, over looking the area.
Some of the monkeys would climb 
up the trees and jump onto the platforms .
It was so cute!!
