[ad] I baked a rather nice thing, I did! I’m quite proud of this recipe, truth be told. Now hear me out... you know carrot cake, right? A perfectly acceptable grated vegetable in a sweet bake, yea? Now, what if you used courgettes instead? One of those eleventy million courgettes that are multiplying in your vegetable crisper right now. The trick to baking with courgettes is to drain them after grating, as they can be a bit watery, then fold them into the cake batter. These spiced courgette cupcakes are super light and fluffy and they’re topped with a rather scrummy tower of cream cheese frosting. The frosting features the superior taste of Kerrygold Irish Butter - made using milk from Irish grass-fed cows. For the next few days you can try this butter for 50% off via Shopmium. Get the recipe and the cashback link in my bio, and use up some of that end-of-summer courgette glut. Trust me, these are tasty. #baking #cupcakes #cupcakesofinstagram #courgettes #zucchini #bakingfromscratch #bakingwithlove #myseasonaltable #foodstyling #realsimple #simplebaking #bakingtherapy #bake #todiefor #thisisfall #feedfeed #feedfeedbaking #eattheworld #cupcakelove #cupcakeideas #fdbloggers #recipe #easyrecipes #getinmybelly #sweet #sweettooth #dessert #dessertsofinstagram #zucchinirecipes

What a beautiful day it’s been today! We took a wander around one of my favourite spots in Shetland- the coastline around Silwick and Westerwick. Picnic, coffee, fairies and a minke whale too. A perfect day. #inspiredbyshetland #seastacks #sea #cliffs #scotland #visitscotland #cliffs #cliffside #shetland #shetlandislands #outdoorsisfree #stayandwander #thisisscotland

#ad One of the best things about these dark, wintry days is the fact that we can bring out the board games again in front of a cosy fire. The kids love having a wee treat as we play too. Toffifee - a hazelnut in caramel with creamy nougat and chocolate - is one of our family favourites. (They’re not for dogs though, Buddy was just after sneaky lap cuddles!) Find out more about Toffifee by visiting www.toffifee.com and grab the link to try for free via Shopmium in my bio! #toffifee #treatyourself #gamenight #family #familytime #memories #familygamenight #treat #makingmemories
