E turns 3 and the crazy school holidays

Last week was mad with E on holiday from school. 😵 Thankfully, the mummies' group from E's school were keen to organize playdates so we spent our first 3 mornings together. We tried out a place where we could leave the kids for CHF 6 per hour and it was great!! It was like the ludotheque, but better. We could actually have coffee uninterrupted together. A little worried at first leaving the 3 kiddos alone but we returned and found them laughing and being all crazy. Phew!!


One of the days, i invited 3 kids over to celebrate E's bday. I woke up at 6am to prepare the food- bacon and cheese pastry, chocolate cake, nuggets and pizza. I sealed the entrance to the bedrooms and put all the toys out in the living room so the ladies could have tea and keep an eye on the kids at the same time. I was prepared for the house to collapse in the hands of 4 kids. However,  it was fun and everyone liked the cake!! 😀 We had a great time and the i managed to clean up before M returned home from work.

My chocolate cake which i'm super proud of :)
I actually intended to make one of those layered cakes, which i have not done before. It looked easy on Pinterest. I was glad i did not try it for the actual party coz it turned out badly. 😅 The frosting did not go on the cake nicely and i had to use a piping bag to pipe it out. Plus, frosting is so sweet... after a few mouths, i was like 😣... Shall have to hunt for another recipe.
