Baking....marble cake & cookies

My husband has recently got into cooking, and in particular baking. I don't know quite what happened...we've been together over 10 years and previously he's never showed any interest in the kitchen.

Then a few months ago, I went out to the gym one evening leaving him at home watching a TV cookery programme. And he caught the cooking bug which I didn't think could happen from the TV.

His cooking adventure is slightly curbed by lack of time but at the weekend he does try to make a least one thing.

I took part in Sainsbury's Stir up Sunday as part of a team of baking experts who were on hand to answer any baking questions. Here I am with the rest of the team.
