We watched “Cobra”, a 1986 Stallone film that I’d not seen before. A maverick cop with sunglasses, and a frizzy-haired girl, take on an anarchic gang; there isn’t much more to say about the plot. However it is delivered with a some style, and the supporting cast are excellent, including Andrew Robinson, Brian Thompson, and a brief appearance by David Rasche.

And Kate was tickled by the cutting-leftover-pizza-with-scissors scene.

I felt an urge to make chelsea buns, so I borrowed Andrew’s Kenwood Chef this morning (with its oh-so-handy dough hook), and had fun with Beth making the buns. Chelsea buns were my favourite item from the school tuck shop — they obviously impressed me at an impressionable age. Beth enjoyed both the cooking and the eating of the buns. In fact, they disappeared so quickly that I then made a lemon cake so we had something to eat with tea.

I think we’ll be making some more buns next weekend; maybe hot cross buns. Worth getting the practice in before Easter! Must get my own Kenwood Chef, too. Something to stick on the Amazon Wish List…
