It’s been a while since I’ve been able to write anything here, but this story about a christening in Edinburgh made me smile! It’s from “Green Gourment Giraffe” and tells the story of how she travelled back to Scotland from Melbourne for the christening of her daughter. Christenings are such great opportunities for pulling together family members from all over the world — less stressful than weddings and happy occasions.

And so did the sight of the Christening Cake that “Green Gourment Giraffe” baked for the occasion:

Apparently there’s a whole pot of Nutella in that beauty, and it fed about 30 adults plus kids. The full recipe is on the web site, and it set me to thinking that perhaps the most memorable thing you take to a christening might not be a gift for the baby. A cake like that would make many people’s day.
There’s loads of other vegetarian recipes and other foody items on the site. It’s well worth a look.
