The Wheaty Biscuits look delicious.

Thanks girls,  both keepers.

I used to buy a lot of chocolate wheaten biscuts Chookie. We all loved them.

[Kimmyh]

It's a bake off in here. Everyone's cooking looks and sounds fabulous.
Love your cakes jamberie. Very clever. Chookie I think the reindeers are made using pretzel ears, Wilton candy eyes (spotlight sell these), cookie mouth and smartie or M&m red nose. Very easy.
Mab I love the giant freckles. Very clever and much cheaper than the bought ones.
Today I made a mud cake from my cupcake addiction blog. Will freeze it to use for a friends choc drip birthday cake later this week. Hope it's ok as it took 2 hours to cook!?

[Jamberie]

Thanks for the lovely comments re my cupcakes I am quite proud of those ones -something that would never have been possible 4 years ago!!
Yes Chookie, like Kimmy mentioned the  reindeer are super simple. The parts are:
*pretzels from the "Parker's Mini" packet
*I made simple biscuits and used a large piping tip for the right size (bigger than the Wilton 1M)
*the eyes were Wilton eyes, however I read someone used Christmas M&Ms and piped chocolate pupils)
*the noses were M&Ms stuck on with some of the writing icing available in the supermarket (royal icing would be fine too, but I had the writing icing already in the pantry).

Kimmy and Jam, thank for the info for the Reindeers. Might get creative GD to make them with me.

[Jamberie]

Oh she would love that Chookie!

[achookwoman]

Yes Jam, I think she would.

Bread cooked in AF. The rolls are for Bruce and Mandy who are returning from hols tomorrow. The little loaf got stuck under front lip of AF.

[Bedlam]

Still looks great Chookie.
Itching to do some cooking, sick bubby here needing lots of cuddles. Good for forum reading.

Poor little fellow Bedlam. Is it the same bug from before or has a new one got him? I hope he recovers quickly.

[achookwoman]

Poor little chap. Hope he gets better soon.

[Cornish Cream]

Your Kumquat jelly is beautifully clear Chookie.I'm sure Mandy and Bruce will appreciate homemade bread after their holiday.

I hope your little one recovers quickly Denise.
