Using Tenina's chowder as the basis followed by many alterations have almost finished chicken and corn chowder.  Will let you know the results - today is the first day of temps below sizzling, wet and rainy so as close as I can get to chowder type weather!!!!!  :D  :D

Have made a batch of coleslaw, converted & cooked a potato, pea & mint quiche for lunch and prepared Tenina's Swiss cheese & Ham pastries from FFS ready to cook later for tea (froze the excess).

just finished 2 lots sweet chilli sauce, and chelsea chicken kievs are in the fridge waiting to get the crumbs on. I made 3 with garlic butter and three with camembert and cranberry. Also made (none thermi) sushi for the  first time, I was quite pleased with the result, will put a bit more filling in next time. Maddy those mini orange blossom bundt look fab, is that a special tin for baking them in?
