Being home on furlough has given me time to get into the kitchen as I've already mentioned, and I've really enjoyed it. I've had my moments though, when I am trying to fill my days, and then I get the urge to bake. But being home does have other advantages like access to ingredients that I havent been able to get my hands on while on the ship. Unfortunately, as stocked as my kitchen is, a hand held blow torch isnt in the cupboards. So my creme brulees didnt turn out as beautiful as I would have liked, but the Meringue topped cupcakes managed to get browned on top with the help of the oven.

Apfelstrudel :)
Creme Brulee
Lemon Meringue Cupcakes
I will sample them all in September! especially the lemon meringue cupcakes. Can you please send me the recipe? ;) PS. the waffle maker didn't make it in the end :( very sad days. we will try and buy one somewhere.
