Chewy Cereal Bars with a "Tweak"...

...a while ago I posted the recipe for my home-made Chewy Cereal Bars...which are lovely (even if I do say so myself) and get made every other week in our house!!! But I decided enough was enough..I needed to have a little play around with the idea...

Smoked Salmon and King Prawn Pasta...

...we haven't tried many new recipes here recently, as I've been trying to clear the freezer out, so using up half portions of bits and pieces...and then we were away for nearly a week...so no cooking at all...but school is back, work is back and routine is back...

Just a quick hello...

...to say I am still here, but have had a very busy couple of weeks, including almost a week away...hence the lack of new recipes and posts on the blog...
However, I do have some garden updates in the pipeline (the tremendous amount of rain we've had has done all sorts to the garden and veggies!!) and am baking another, different Herman tomorrow (all will be revealed then)...plus with school going back this coming week there will be lunch box bakes (still deciding what to do) to make and bake...so am hoping all will become as it was...and the blog will have posts aplenty in the coming weeks...
Keep watching and tuning in...xx

Chicken, Bacon, Peas and Lettuce...

...does it sound intriguing? It was a meal I made based upon a meal I had at PAs Wine Bar in Mumbles South Wales last week...the actual meal was Monkfish and King Prawns in a creamy, French Peas and Bacon inspired sauce...which I thought would translate rather well to chicken...

Chocolate Chip Herman...

...Part 2 of "The Herman Adventure"...using the portion of the original Herman the German Friendship Cake starter that I popped in the fridge whilst we were away for a long weekend...

Herman The German Friendship Cake...

...the other day (well 12 days ago to be precise!) Hubby came home from work clutching an old chinese take-away carton wrapped in a plastic bag and fastened tightly with an elastic band...

Coconut Milk Cake...

...have had my eye on this one for a while now...I got Marion Keyes new recipe book "Saved by Cake" out of the local library a few weeks ago, and have only just found some time to bake one of the cakes from it...

Sausage and Roasted Veg Pasta...

...made with leftover sausages and Med Veg from a weekend BBQ...after all, we're in a double dip recession now apparently, so definitely up for the "Waste Not, Want Not" challenge these days...
