The wind blew a hooley, the gazebo stayed standing, just, the rain threatened but didn't fall until we were leaving, and we had a great day!! Can you ask for anything more?!! The Fife Show excelled itself. We had a busy afternoon selling cupcakes and traybakes and tablet and goodies galore. My fab co-workers took over for 15mins or so which meant I even had chance to look at the sheep and the ponies and the tractors and to dance a jig with my fav wee man whilst we waited for his aunt to buy willow fish for the garden!
I had a lovely neighbour in the shape of Laura of Laura's Chocolates fame. They were to die for!! And she was full of great advice and top tips too which is always a good thing. Visit her website to see what I mean about the deliciousness she produces:
Http://www.lauraschocolates.com Her unexpected companion who joined her stall just before we opened was selling Trotter's Wild Garlic Pesto amongst other things. I had to buy a jar - would've been rude not to!! Again, scrummy to the extreme. Check out the website too -

Anyway, I digress.... we had cupcakes a plenty - Grasshopper, Choc Fudge, Carrot, Red Velvet, Cola, Disco Vanilla, Banoffee and oh so many more - and they all sold, nearly! Tablet was popular as was Rocky Road and Brownies. The surprise hit was the coconut tarts - thank you to the couple who bought what must have been at least a dozen of them, so nostalgic was their experience of them!!
Here are the photos so you can see what we were up to!

New for the show, and the first to sell out - The Grasshopper!
It sat oh so prettily alongside the Mocha. |

| Disco Vanilla and Banoffee - comfy companions! |

| Can you beat a pink cupcake? Strawberry Shortcake were a fav! |

Always a popular choice and one I'm especially proud of - the Carrot Cake
(complete with homemade wee carrots! Cute!) |
