Meatballs and What You Can Do With Them
06 February 2012
I have to confess that I can be rather lazy when it comes to cooking from time to time. I don't always want to spend hours and hours slaving over a hot stove. I do enjoy cooking, but if I can find an easier and quicker way of doing something without compromising flavour . . . I'll take it! I also ...
Valentine Berry Cutie Pies
05 February 2012
February being the month of love and all, I've had my mind very much on baking treats for the man of my dreams hubster this weekend. I do like to spoil him from time to time. It's not all pasta and chocolate which he just adores hates . . . I do try to cook to please him now and then . . . well ...
Spice is Nice Plum Cake
04 February 2012
I had some plums that I needed to use up the other night as well as company for dinner. I had already made a plum crumble several days back and wanted to do something different with them. Should I make a pie? Should I make a cake, or another crumble? And then I remembered this lovely cake that I ...
Sticky Toffee Pudding Bars
03 February 2012
One of the most famous desserts here in the UK has to be Sticky Toffee Pudding . . . basically a date cake, with a lucious sticky rich caramel like toffee topping . . . largely to die for. One might argue that the cake itself is not all that bad for you . . . as it is chock full of dates . . . and ...
Buffalo Chicken Salad
02 February 2012
In my continuing quest to eat healthily today I made myself a most delicious Buffalo Chicken Salad for my lunch, once again pinching and adapting it from a recipe I found in the cookery book, "The Food You Crave," by Ellie Krieger. (Fabulous book by the way. Everything tastes so good!) I didn't ...
Maple & Mustard Glazed Chicken Thighs
01 February 2012
I have seriously been trying to eat a bit healthier this year. Not as many treats and indulgences . . . I know it may not seem like it, but it's true! The lighting was really, really poor today, so I apologize for the quality of these pictures. I try always to photograph in natural light. I ...
Oven Hash
31 January 2012
Question . . . does this look like stewing beef to you?? I thought not! It doesn't look like stewing beef to me either . . . but apparently it does to Todd. I sent him to the shops this morning to get me a pound of cubed stewing beef and this is what he brought back. I had in mind to make a ...
Lemon and Poppyseed Drop Scones
30 January 2012
Can it be possible that we are at the end of January already??? I know! Hasn't the month just flown by! Over in North America kids will be getting ready for Groundhog Day (2nd February) and praying that the groundhog doesn't see his shadow, for if he does . . . there is sure to be at least six ...
Apricot Bread Pudding
29 January 2012
I recently had the good fortune to have a whole bunch of brioche bread that didn't get eaten before it went stale . . . you might be asking yourself, why on earth would that be considered fortunate?? I mean, brioche is so rich and moist and delicious, surely one would want to eat it when it was ...
My Top of the Pop's (Dinner wise that is!)
28 January 2012
Source: flickr.com via Kate on Pinterest Wahhh . . . gas works are still ongoing here at Casa de Rayner, and so once again no cooking going on. Sigh . . . sad but true. We did have a tasty fry up at a cafe this morning . . . but other than that we've only eaten fruit and cereal today. I think it ...
