What's Breaking My Heart?

Marshmallows!

I have always wanted to make marshmallows - just to see how it's done. Finally, I made some lovely pink and white marshmallows for Valentine's Day. I took them to a party last night and this is all that's left. They are good - melt in your mouth sweetness. Softer and lighter and with more flavor than bought ones.

I saved these few to put in hot chocolate.

They were actually quite simple to make. I'm going to try it again with some different recipes which I have gotten off the internet.

Brighton Aquarium

The first full day that Daughter of and her family spent with me in Brighton, we went to the Aquarium. Which is a wonderful Victorian era aquarium, now operated by Sea Life. Miss T enjoyed herself very much, as did we all. I saw Sea Horses - very thrilling. Miss T loved the huge sea turtle, the crabs, and touching a sea anemone.
