...in our house we are suckers for chocolate goodies...especially most variations of brownies...so as we are visiting friends this weekend, I thought some brownies would be a nice gift to take along...but I wanted to up the stakes slightly, I wanted a smaller bite-sized brownie...and possibly one with a topping (or two!!) I remembered a "hot brownie muffin" recipe form one of Small Ones cookbooks, but it was more of a hot pudding, but I was confident that I could 'tweak' away at it until it was what I wanted...
Wow! It's been two weeks since the last Garden Chronicles update...and lots has happened in the garden since then...
...to many it may look as if it's full of weeds...but I much prefer the term "wild flowers" or "native flowers"...some of our most common weeds are often the prettiest...the ones that all those prim and proper gardeners like to dispense with as quick as they can...
My bread-machine cheat method...I haven't made Focaccia before...so was pleasantly surprised by how easy this method was...
...we had another of our 'Dinner In' with friends last night...this time the theme was Mexican Feast Night...
This is another dish from my favourite cookery book at the moment Thomasina Miers' Mexican Food Made Simple...where it is called Spicy Bird Taco Filling
...I don't like tomatoes when they are raw in salads or sandwiches, but this salsa gets you to dry roast them in a pan before using...
