Holidays are nearly here!

I've nearly reached the weekend and on Sunday John and I are flying off to Prague for 3 nights.  It's been a long time since we managed some time on our own so I'm really, really excited.
my fist picture for this week is of some 2nd birthday balloon cookie pops for a little boy celebrating his second birthday.  They are made with a dairy free spread which I assumed would just substitue into my usual recipe, dream on!  The problem is that because it is oil based the mix doesn't harden when left in the fridge making it incredibly difficult to work with and therefore they took me ages to make due to reshaping.  Never mind at least I'll know next time.
