Cheese scones with a hefty pinch of cayenne - the kids still wolfed them down tho. DS age 3 helped make them. Bless me but he is great at rubbing in - dunno how or why but I'm not complaining!
And then an apple, blackberry and damson crumble made with foraged fruit, deeelish if I do say so myself. The blackberries were just so fragrant. Nom nom nom!

I made some madeleines, using my lovely new tin from Lakeland. Yet another thing from my Weightwatchers recipe book!

These look incredible! I need to make these. I have a passion for madelines from travelling in France. Mmmmmmm

i'm making a huge vat of lentil soup. i will freeze 90 % down ( i already have loads in freezer) but keep enough out for today's and tomoz lunch. i love lentil soup and the celery in the fridge was looking bit past it's best so figured i'd better make some soup. ( what a shame,lol)

I'm trying this apple cake, as my mate's got a massive apple tree with more fruit than I know what to do with.

I baked chocolate cupcakes and mars bar biccys... I swear my DS (13) has hollow legs came in from school wolfed down about 12 biccys and two cupcakes!!!

I baked an apple pie! no big deal you think? well I dont think I have made one for years......twenty perhaps?
my family are more into savouries - but my neighbour kindly gave me a carrier bag full of cooking apples from her sons tree.
they arent bramleys but definately cookers.
I also remembered an old tip I saw on an american recipe - to mix a couple of teaspoons of cornflour with the sugar for sweetening the apples (I dont stew them first).
worked a treat! the apple pie is lovely and now its cooled the filling is firm and not soaking the bottom layer of pastry. oh, and OH and son have both had some and gone back for more!
just thought i would share this with you all! I rarely bake and am a bit thrilled with myself!
