Firstly, this is the last day of life in my twenties.<\/p>\n

Over the last ten years I have qualified as a teacher, worked as a teacher, become a Primary Mathematics Specialist Teacher, met Mrs Pitts, married Mrs Pitts, said goodbye to my Mum, moved into my first house, found 730 geocaches… and those are just things that spring to mind.<\/p>\n

I’m a totally different person to the one of ten years ago, hopefully I’m a better one too.<\/p>\n

Secondly, I hadn’t realised that yesterday’s blog post had now made the 2013 post tally overtake both 2012 (with 13) and 2008 (with 24). The 30th post will move this year further up that particular league table. I will happily admit that I am loving this 365 project so far. I haven’t resorted to finding things online to fill a post too many times yet either!<\/p>\n

Now then, tradition dictates that food is taken to work on your birthday and to fulfil this obligation, I (with Mrs Pitts’ help) have been baking. Three creations have been made: a toffee cake, a ginger cake<\/a> and a tray of 24 chocolate brownies.<\/p>\n

At the risk of turning into a recipe laden blog (see Day 20<\/a>), here’s how the brownies were made.<\/p>\n
