What are you been cooking today

[DizzyGirl]

Today: monte Carlos thanks to JD
Honey Pikelets for lunch
Coconut cake
Chicken Chasseur for dinner

Was going to make taco spice by adding paprika, pepper and chilli to Bess tomato sauce recipe, but no chillies. Will have to make another day now.

I'm making some bread rolls (new recipe) if they turn out ok I will post the recipe later.
I find that bread rolls get eaten more than bread loaves around here. So I am trying to make a bit of variety.

[fundj&e]

not much today 

made some anchovy paste and a lentil soup lesson for jess

and she can now crochet too, she making the  baby a  blanket , so now she will never be hungry or cold agian 

[dede]

Now that looks like a good hearty soup fundj.

[DizzyGirl]

You are a good mum Uni. That soup looks good.

My plans are out the window as I spent 2 hrs on the phone to a friend. ;@)
No Pikelets or Monte Carlos today. Coconut cake in the oven. Thinking of chocolate self saucing pudding for dessert on this cold rainy day.

[fundj&e]

2 hrs on the phone  ,  You are a good  friend DG

[achookwoman]

Uni,  you are a very good mum. and DG a very good friend.

Today 2 grain bread sticks , 3/4 cooked. (for visitors tomorrow,) and 2 bread rolls from same dough for our lunch.
Made first test batch of Portuguese Custard Tarts.  DH said they were the best Custard Tarts he has ever had,  ( I think he was just ready for lunch)  Will post recipe as it is a mixture of 3 recipes.

any rolling with a rolling pin involved, achookwoman 

[judydawn]

Well they certainly look worthy of DH's comment Chookie - well done you 

Today we had leftovers for lunch and I've made Sonan's Curry Apple Beef Stew for tomorrow's lunch for DH & his DS (sister) as I will be out.  I again did a variation of this recipe using the TMX and not the oven.

[dede]

Made some Kaiser rolls, bimby chocolate cake, apple crumble and got a roast leg of lamb in the oven now.
Trying to keep busy this week to make time go quicker.
Friday is the day I get this cast off and I can wait . I just want to have a good scratch and shave my legs ( looks like a forest lol)

[judydawn]

Glad to hear your time is almost up Mandi 

[dede]

Oh it's been a very long 7 weeks Judy. I know I won't be able to walk for a while, but at least I can have a shower without a plastic bag over my leg and one leg cocked up in the air (funny sight) and I can wear 2 shoes again.

[DizzyGirl]

Dede it's winter. Think of your forest as leg Warmers. I do LOL

[dede]

Now that's a great idea DG, and I'm 7 weeks ahead of everyone else so I will be toasty

[obbie]

Mandi, It will be Friday soon.

Hope all is ok.
