Every year from July through September, we celebrate all three birthdays and an anniversary. Our celebrations have always been a bit low key. When our girl was younger, her birthdays were marked with a party for her friends. As she grew older, birthdays became quieter, because she preferred them that way. We haven’t been able…
Hello there. I’m back again after another long, long break. Today, I’m posting a Multigrain Sourdough Sandwich bread that I baked in May! That’s because we’ve spent all of May, June and a bit of July on some renovations around the house. We’ve had workmen in out of the house and blogging has really been…
Let me start today’s post by saying that this Easy Dutch Oven Bread is not a sourdough bread. It is an ordinary yeasted white bread, that one would ordinarily bake in a loaf tin. There seems a general thought that breads baked in Dutch Ovens are either no-knead breads or sourdough breads. Take a look…
If you read my post on Avocado Toast you would know that I don’t really like avocados. So you might then be wondering why I’m posting Guacamole, another recipe featuring avocados. We might not like avocados but our daughter does. She discovered them in a big way when she was in the UK doing her Masters…
It is Bread Baking Babes bread of the month time again and this month I picked the bread we all baked. Easter is celebrated this weekend so it seemed fitting to choose an Easter bread. I picked Ciambella Mandorlata, an Italian Easter bread. Ciambella Mandorlata originated in Bologna in the Emilia Romagna region. It is…
Easter is here and I’m once again tempted to make decorated cookies. I’ve said this many times before, that I don’t particularly like cookies. I do however, enjoy making decorated cookies and there are plenty of examples on this blog. Check these out. This year I’m adding these Whole Wheat and Oat Cutout Easter Cookies…
Avocado on Toast is something that’s probably been to death by now. So I’m sure that my Avocado and Hummus on Toast is getting blogged a tad too late. However, I think it is worthy of being blogged about at least once. Avocado on some form of bread (read tortillas) has been eaten by natives…
The summer is here, once again. It is hear earlier than usual and much warmer as well. We’ve just started April and the weather department has been telling us it’s about 5 to 6 degrees C hotter than it should be. I don’t have to tell you that the kitchen isn’t my favourite place right…
