Victoria spondge mess

Ingredients
4 eggs
8oz castor sugar
8oz self raising flour
8oz stork

2 cake tins
Jam for centre

For two tone icing mix more food colouring in one bowl of icing
And not as much in the second and spread on




For decoration


Glazed cherries
Pink sprinkles

How to make
Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Butter two 20cm sandwich tins and line with non-stick baking paper. In a large bowl, beat all the cake ingredients together until you have a smooth, soft batter I prefer using a whisk as it saves me time.Divide the mixture between the tins, smooth the surface with the back of a spoon, then bake for about 20 mins until golden and the cake springs back when 
pressed. Turn onto a cooling rack and leave to cool completely.
When cool on one side of the cake put Jam then put other Half on top of the cake , then you make the two tone icing , the tip is to make it thick you can't go wrong just add small amounts of milk till you get it right 
Decorate any way you want you can add anything 

Fruit .... Like strawberrys or raspberry s 
Or sprinkles or chocolate

This is myself at the start of the shred
What do you need ?
. Weights . I use 1 kg , you can easily found in Argos
. Exercise mat .
Good trainers .
Breathable clothes !

Day 1 .
So I started the shred at level one with an open mind but boy it makes you sweat like crazy and makes every part of your body ache and seems to last forever when you start it but once you get used to it , it's a lot easier ! The workout lasts about 25 minutes and everything feels totally worked . The video is great also for beginners are one of the ladies shows you easier moves and jillian also explains everything very well .
After it I was sweating and felt like jelly I woke up with sore legs also
But I'm determined to finish this !

Weight loss

So I recently had my beautiful little Girl <3and I put 2 stone on during my pregnancy after I had my little Girl I lost a stone so I only need to loose the stone plus 2 extra stone I needed to loose before pregnancy so 3 stone weight loss is my goal I'd like to be 9 stone at the end of it but I'm in no rush , just trying the healthy eating approach with plenty of exercise so I'm hoping it comes of naturally but hey I'm in no rush I'm dressing my size now which is a 14.
My legs have the most weight they always have done so that's going to be the main point of action for me. My stomach is ok just a bit like a deflated baloon at the moment which is slowly going which I'm happy with .
Keep track of me and see how long it takes me on my journey x

Back blonde again ...

So I decided I wanted to go back blonde again but thought o no , how on earth am I going to get bright red out of my hair .... The red in my hair had faded a lot and looked terrible , i tried washing it out for ages to get it out as it said it was semi permanent , how wrong I was to put it on and trust it.
So I bought colour B4 hoping it would remove the colour , I wasn't to hopefull though ....
So I left it on for the recommended. Time and washed out and buffed and dried my hair .. Thankfully it worked really well and got my hair back blonde .
I'm going to the hairdressers later in the week to get highlights to get nice summery look :D

Red hair

Dying my hair RED
So the last few weeks I've been wondering wether or not to dye my hair or not , it was between dark pink or red but decided to dye it red in the end.
I wanted a colour that wouldn't be damaging and easy to apply and ended up buying la riches poppy red semi permanent dye , and I must say its one of the best hair dyes I've used and believe me I've used loads over the past 6 years ! It's not hair and you can see results nearly instantly  
Instructions
Wash hair with a PH balanced shampoo 
- I used baby shampoo 
Rinse hair and towel dry 
Apply hair dye in sections with a tinting brush onto damp 
Towel dried hair .
It says leave it to delvop for 15 minutes 
But I personally left It on for 1 hour as I wanted a deep intense result .
Rinse as you would a normal shampoo then style to as you please

Must say I totally love the colour and will be keeping it for 
A while ! It's a lovely vibrant colour .
Results depend on the colour of your hair before hand my hair was pre lightened , for natural colours it won't be as Intense as it would on lighter coloured hair .

What do you guys think ?
