    Jam tarts here, in my vintage cake tin (not as Old Style as it sounds, it cost me a fortune on ebay but what price nostalgia, eh?) :D

    I did notice though that I was having trouble fitting the flour back on the shelf and realised that my ingredients shelf is looking more well stocked nowadays and my 'tins and jars' shelf a little depleted so I have reorganised and my 'ingredients' are now making inroads into the 'tins and jars' shelf.

    I'm feeling a very smug would-be Old Styler today :)

  • A loaf of rye bread and some *wondeful* savoury muffins which will do me for packed lunches (if they last that long). They were a variation on this HFW article

    We've just tried a couple as a starter before Sunday dinner and they were brilliant.

    And I've discovered that the spicy fruit bread is even better toasted on the second day!

    Do you have a recipe for the rhubarb cruble crunch? Is it just like a normal crumble or is it a cake or biscuit or something? I have a bag of rhubarb in my freezer that I need to do something with!
  • Have done a pear crumble, lasagne and some crispy cakes (not strictly baking I know!).

    At home I made scones.

    At work, in between cooking breakfast and lunch orders, I made the following:

    Flapjacks
    Victoria sandwich
    Coconut and cranberry banana bread
    Easter nests (chocolate and shredded wheat with mini eggs)
    Chocolate cupcakes with easter nests piped on top (with tiny tiny mini eggs, so cute!)
    Sweetie cake (big chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream and lots of sweets on top including dolly mixtures and millions
    Chocolate brownie
    Boiled fruit cake
    Lemon drizzle cake
    Little shortbread biscuits

    Think that's about it... it looks like quite a lot when I see it all written down :D
