We're moving...

Facebook thought our "Thailand - Day 3" blog post was offensive, so they blocked our entire site?! Perhaps it was because we posted links to people's websites who have been helpful to us along the way. Fix your algorithm, Facebook!

And Blogspot isn't the easiest blog site to edit.

Our new blog site is here:

thebikerandthebaker.wordpress.com

It's still a bit rough around the edges, and with little free time, it's probably gonna stay that way. Hope you enjoy it!

Okay, here is my first post that is now my second post: Last night, I decided to give a traditional South African recipe, called Melkkos, another go.  I tried this recipe a couple of years ago and the end result was a burnt milk, no lumps concoction - in this recipe no lumps is a disaster!  The recipe I used at that time came out of a traditional South African cookbook, called   Kook en Geniet   or the english version   Cook and Enjoy .  I don't know if the reason for my original defeat was inexperience or if the recipe is to blame.  Nevertheless, last night I googled for a recipe and decided on the following one: http://www.tastemag.co.za/ Recipe-1280/Melkkos.aspx  The recipe is by Maranda Engelbrecht on Woolies' Taste Mag website. What is Melkkos you may ask?  Directly translated it means "milk food" - does not sound very flattering, does it?  It is traditionally served on a cold winters night either as a light meal or a dessert and may resemble the taste of a Mi

The BIG haircut

Last week whilst Jethro was busy doing an exercise with his fringe hanging his eyes, I decided that is as much as I can take and the decision was made to cut his hair.  I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE his long hair but the hair in the eyes just got too much for me and I thought we could make it a yearly tradition, that way his hair could grow long again up until the point where it gets too messy. I initially only wanted to cut a little bit as I'm usually a bit overeager in my hair cutting attempts (Tony and Jethro can both vouch for that :) ).  A fringe was cut and I was careful to try and round it in with the longer hair as I was thinking that a straight cut fringe will be a bit like a girls hair.  It looked very nice and we decided to leave our barbery for the day until Tony gets home to give his opinion. Tony home, likes hair!!  But Jethro wanted his hair shorter "like Grandies"  and then "as short as Daddy's!".  So, on Spring day (Thursday the 1st of Septembe

And finally the big day arrived.  The day our first baby turns 5! Cupcakes were baked and presents were wrapped.  Now we just have to wait for Mister to wake up...  last year when we woke him up with cupcakes and singing we were told in a cross voice:  "Mom and Dad, I'm still sleeping!"  So, this time we wait :) And so the man of the hour arises, with a big smile on his face, informing me that he is five now!  And so he is!  Happy birthday Jethro!!  Our incredible, amazing, courageous, sporty boy!  We love you so much, as much as to the moon and back!  We love you more than ice cream with sprinkles, with a fireball!  You are our super duper super hero!  And we are so proud to be your mommy and daddy!  So, cupcakes were eaten, presents unwrapped.  Jethro stumbled upon his gift in my cupboard a couple of days prior, so the surprise was lacking but he still enjoyed playing with his new Lego and built a magnificent little car!  He even received a badge that said:
