Connie and the Cakes!

Once upon a time there was a girl called Connie who loved cakes! She ate them, she baked them and often she even dreamt about them! Her favourite island was Capri, off the coast of Italy and earlier this year (for my birthday in April in fact!) we stayed there for a weekend and visited the cake shops! Mmmm! Many months (and cakes!) later we arrived in St Kilda, Melbourne where Acland Street is famous for its cake shops. We found four of them! They are full of mouth watering, taste bud tickling, tongue tantalising, tempting, irresistable CAKES! We took Mary along to feast her eyes on them when she arrived in St Kilda and as you can see, she was excited too! (Connie was too enthralled in making her choice to even look up at the camera!) Even I wasn't left out in the cake department as they have gluten free ones too! Tons of gluten free stuff here in Australia generally in fact! Even the little cafe at the Flying Doctor Centre in Alice Springs, Central Australia (in the middle of nowhere!) offered sandwiches made up with gluten free bread! And in Adelaide they have whole gluten free menus in some cafes! So come on UK - catch up! More gluten free food please! (Ok, ok - I will get off my gluten free soap box now!) But I did enjoy my cake! (JK for the K Team)
