Strawberry cheesecake muffins.

I bought a lovely new book of cakes the other day - Good Food Magazine's 101 Cakes & Bakes. All the recipes seem easy to follow, but Daughter-dear and I couldn't resist the idea of Strawberry Cheesecake Muffins. They worked really well - and look just like the illustration - which is an achievement!

I work in ounces, or grams, so for any American friends who want to try these, but work in cups, sorry but you'll need to get the scales out!

TenYears After - Chapter One.

So I am not usually a fan-fic writer - more a reader. But I have been known to write fiction occasionally - apart from the Bagpuss ficlets - only that most of my output is set in a place where the main Slayer is Roxy, and Spike,Dawn, Buffy, Willow etc. etc. make occasional guest appearances. These can be found on speakr2customrs website, and include some stuff I probably wouldn't want my daughter to read!!

However, I have had something buzzing around in my head for ages, and have finally got most of it written, and the rest of it planned out in my head, and my husband is forcing me, well OK nagging me, to post it on LJ for other people to read.

It is a Dawn centred look at life 'Ten Years After' - ten years on from the collapse of Sunnydale, because there were things about Dawn that seemed to get lost in the original Buffy series, and I wondered how she would grow up! Currently it is probably readable by anyone - although perhaps we better say PG or 13 for one rude word in this bit!

So here we go with Chapter One of ( 'Ten Years After' )

The next chapter is here.

Feed back very welcome, nay positively craved - although now I've got this far you may have trouble stopping me finishing it unless you are very rude!
