A few evenings ago, I had an awesome trifle. It was bought, but still awesome. This got me to thinking; “How much more AWESOME would a trifle be if home-made?”. I love combining my hobbies. Music and computers, internet and photography, the social web and cooking… all great combinations. I chose the third combination for the above task. I […]
