Reverting to Childhood

I can't believe a plate of fairy bread makes me happy. My mum and I just made fairy bread. It may not seem that significant to you, but well, I didn't have that much of a childhood with my mum. She was always working. I don't blame her for anything, in fact, I know she loved us so much she worked so we could have better lives. It's just all those little things you never get the chance to do, like cooking or going shopping.

Anyway, fairy bread is like, the definition of party food.

When I was little and went to my girl friend's birthday parties, their mum's always made a plate of fairy bread. I thought it was awesome. Now I realise that it costs about 7 bucks to make an entire platter so it is not quite that awesome, just really cheap. Still, watching my mum wrap up the fairy bread in glad wrap makes me really happy inside.

Love,
Mel
