Looks lovely Chookie, would love a lemon scented kitchen.
Sounds like you had fun Stacielee.
I know the feeling Mich but I have 2 at home still- they have turned into very particular eaters and tend to do their own.
I made a delicious slow cooked pulled pork ( thanks Karen for recipe) and delivered some to my DS. Went to the farmers market and after I finish cleaning up the mess I have made by cleaning out the fridge and freezer , will confit some more garlic. I am making the most of the Australian garlic being available.

I've made some Pomegranate and Pistachio biscuits from Tenina.com They are lovely. I have some bread on it's second rise and soup cooking at the moment. It's all the tired looking vegies with vegie stock and soup mix thrown in. I have just baked the chicken for the sticky chicken tonight.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Everyone has been very busy.

Yesterday I made a roasted pumpkin and bacon tart with puff pastry, a Quiche with Asian mushrooms, eggplant and ham, banana bread and lemon delicious.

Tonight I made the creamy garlic prawn penne.

Everyone's cooking sounds delicious. I've made some plain cookies and a lemon slice.

Astarra the milo yoghurt sounds interesting. Do you mix the two or use a special recioe?

Kimmy...Milo yoghurt:
75gm icing sugar
30gm cornflour
50gm milo -

--- mix together 4sec/sp3 then add:

2 eggs
500ml milk (I use soy or Almond when I am making it for miss4, but dairy milk works too)

cook 7:30min/sp4/90deg, then scrape into jug/bowl/whatever & cover surface with gladwrap (or whatever) and let cool. When cold decant into serving sized containers and freeze if wanted.  8)

I love that your little girls want to cook like Mummy astarra - I bet Miss 4 was so pleased with herself.  It's no mean feat for a 4 year old to peel apples  :o

Well done to Miss 4 Astarra, it's lovely that she wants to help out. :)

Cookie, have to agree those Pomegranate & Pistachio biscuits are lovely and are a definite favourite here  ;D

Astarra,   that is wonderful. 
We have grown some Jerusalem Artichokes and I was looking for something a bit different to do with them. I sliced them on a mandolin slicer ,  sprayed them with olive oil and AF them as crisps.  Very nice.
