I've just had 2 days starting work at 6.30am. And I LOVE IT!
The quiet ghostless traffic, not to mention human beings; the silent office that comes with real productivity; the day light by the time I get off work; and the afternoon I have to spend with my boy before I start cooking dinner and enjoy the evening.
It seems like I have 100 hours a day!

That looks heavenly. I've been seeing dark chocolates all over including mine so this is a good change with white chocolate and cranberry.

I really admire you! Work and still find time to make all the lovely food. I had white chocolate cake before and yours look better!
White Chocolate AND cranberry?!?! Sounds sooo good! :)
love the white chocolate with cranberries. Yummy!
Wow, perfect combination! It kind of reminds me of a naughty confection that Starbucks puts out during the holidays, a thin cake with cranberries, topped with cream cheese frosting and drizzled with white chocolate. So rich and festive, just like your cake!
I'm not normally a big fan of white chocolate but I could see it working here.
Love the combo! At first I thought the cake was primarily white chocolate (like a chocolate mousse cake) and was a bit unsure, but as chunks I think it works out perfectly with the cranberries!
Also, I think I found myself starting reading all the posts about your son. They were all so funny and the pics were so adorable! You must be so proud :)

Dear Author www.lululuathome.com !
I can not take part now in discussion - it is very occupied. Very soon I will necessarily express the opinion.
I want to quote your post in my blog. It can?
