Mmmm, Lemon butter
Today we had a playdate with family so we made up a banana batter cake and took that to share for morning tea.
Tonight after we picked some fresh bush lemons off our tree we made the lemon curd/butter from the EDC book. When it was hot it tasted very buttery so I'm not sure it's quite what I'm looking for as I remember lemon curd to be a kind of gel?

Sunday 29th
Today began with a steamed omelet in the varoma - Ham, Tomato and eggs. I forgot to add the cheese :/
I then made vanilla rice pudding for a lunch time dessert. I really need to invest in some vanilla beans I think as I found vanilla essence was just not enough.
Beef stroganoff for dinner from the EDC book. Was really nice. Ate so much more than I was supposed to :/ Lol

Home made milo?
I made the milo powder today, It was quite nice, A little gritty but next time I might blend it down a little more
Also made a loaf of bread and dinner was creamy salmon sauce on pasta. That I didn't like very much, I think however it was the salmon? It wasn't a brand I was used to

Steamed Omelets??
Yes please! Tried today and it was sooo good!!
Very filling and I wasn't hungry again until lunch time.
Dinner was creamy bacon and tomato fettucini off the TMX forums. Supposed to be salami but I only had bacon. Was good but won't reduce the liquid next time ( I did this time as I used tinned tomatoes not fresh and thought it would be too watery)

Mmm, Bread
Today I tested out the basic bread recipe from the EDC book. Turned out great!
Next loaf I will use a loaf tin instead of free form so we can cut it into proper slices.
Made the kids some playdough too, Lovely green. Feels so nice compared to the playdough I have made by hand before.
Dinner was Gormet Beef Casserole. Alex licked the bowl clean almost he enjoyed it that much lol!
Late night indulgence was the hot chocolate out of the EDC book, Very nice but very rich so won't have so much next time

She's arrived :D
Thermi has arrived :D
Today we made the vege concentrate and gorgonzola and ricotta cheese sauce to put over pasta. I first saute`d some shredded ham and an onion and set that aside while I blended the cheese sauce then folded the ham mix back through the sauce.
