La Clare 1 christmas cake, 2 christmas puddings, a batch of mincemeat, 1 chocolate cake, a lunch for 12 and 2 dinners for 10 later- my weekend at home came to an end! I'm more exhausted now than I was when I got there, will get mum to take some pictures of the christmas baking to post.

La Nicola I had an idea for an article this morning (was very tempted to write it in the library instead of doing the work I was supposed to do), so will send it to you this evening. :)

very quickly running out of food and can't be bothered to go shopping. This weekend I'm going to attempt to make something out of nothing with potatoes/noodles, chicken, a sweet potato, lentils, half a carrot, some parmesan and cheddar, peas and mushrooms... (that's literally it aside from some standard storecupboard s...tuff. not even tinned tomatoes or onions...). a curry? soup? something different altogether? watch this space...Llegeix-ne més

Okay here's a discovery, I just made "Award Winning Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies " from allrecipes.com- scaled down to 36 servings (I adore this website!)- however instead of baking them straight away I rolled the dough into two logs, rolled them in cling film and froze them. So all I have to do is cut off cookies from ...the logs when I want them, and cook them at gas mark 4 for exactly 12 minutes, for the perfect soft in the middle, chewy/crisp outside. I have tried this, and as a student it's perfect because then they don't all get eaten straight away and I can have fresh cookies whenever I want them/friends come over!Llegeix-ne més

A stonking, wintry stew for the more ambitious cooks among you from Henry Harris who runs one of the best French restaurants in London, Racine. (Actually better than many in France these days)

La Clare Hello all! Finally did a grocery shop, so on the menu over the next few days are chicken curry (done), chicken tarragon and sundried tomato pasta and stuffed chicken breast wrapped in bacon. Pictures to follow!

sorry about the lack of posts from me recently - I planned to make a lemon/cinnamon/ginger chicken, chickpea and spinach stew tonight and to make gnocchi for the first time tomorrow.... however my purse went walkabout at the local tesco, so that has to be postponed for now (while I frugally make meals out of whatever o...dds and end I have in my fridge until my new bank card comes through) - I'll keep you posted either way.
P.S. made Sig's chocolate and raspberry brownies for a friend's birthday and they were AMAZING. though my dish wasn't quite the right size so they took ages on a low heat to actually cook all the way through. aside from that, YUM.Llegeix-ne més

A few ideas for jazzing up baked beans http://www.beyondbakedbeans.com/articles /20080310

Despite the title of this website and books I've nothing against baked beans! They’re a good wholesome food which provides protein, fibre and some useful minerals like iron. But you could occasionally ring the changes . . .

My mind's been ticking over ever since Elly announced the Eat to the Beat! blog event. I love a theme, and I knew I could meld meals and music since I count Fiona Apple, Cake and Custard among my favourite music-makers. ...

To address the non-studently balance, here is a hilarious and absolutely charming blog. The author is not a native English speaker which makes it all the more endearing IMO.
