Right, let’s get straight to the crux of the matter. Despite my huge amount of over-confidence (as demonstrated in my blog post last Friday) I DID NOT win the Bake-Off.
But I’m not bitter. And neither was my Lemon Drizzle. In fact it was a runner-up. Enough about me though, attention should be turned to the actual winner – Grace Clark. A thoroughly deserved first prize was awarded to Grace for her delicious chocolate cake. Not only did she win Almeida Theatre tickets and dinner at the lovely Almeida Restaurant – she also got her picture taken with Jane Asher AND is in the local paper!!
Well done Grace!
