What are you cooking today?

[Cornish Cream]

Love the photo Maddy.Looking at them reminded of a childens programme here in the U.K. called " Bananas in Pyjamas" I really enjoy all the photo's that everyone puts on here.

Cornish Cream, we have Bananas in Pyjamas in Australia, too. In fact, if we are talking about the same one, pretty sure it is made in Australia. With Rat in a Hat, and Morgan, Amy and Lulu?
Those cupcakes look awesome.
Today we are making tahini (followed by hommus!), laksa paste, tortillas, QuirkyJos fajita marinade and seasoning.
Yesterday I did an impromptu demo for some friends, made lemon sorbet, custard, risotto etc, I would have made 2 sales - if I was a demonstrator.

Banana's in Pyjama's IS an Australian made show, created by the same lady that created Hi-5. She created Banana's for her kids and then as they out grew them she created Hi-5 

So cute Maddy .. will bear that in mind for general cupcake decorations for birthday  you are very clever

[Very Happy Jan]

Today I made ILB's Bimby Chocolate cake (fabulous recipe- works every time), Maddy's cheese & bacon rolls (had to beat the kids off them as usual so there would be some for school lunches) and ILB's Rhubarb & Cinnamon Cake which I undercooked slightly but still tastes yummo. Will have to make this one again because I think if I hadn't mucked it up it would be a sensational cake.

I didn't know that Faffa - what a clever lady.

I didn't know that Bananas in Pyjamas was originally a Australian production, you learn something new every day.Thanks Faffa and Kimberley.

..... and there you go, the fakest, easiest most un-Masterchef fried rice.

Good work Kimberley - judging by some of the dishes I've seen on Masterchef, I think it probably would not have had you facing elimination.

Great to hear all that you have produced.

they are the only banana's that don't go brown  really, really cute Maddy and if I was a kid I would choose those first on the party table 

[achookwoman]

We still have the painters,  so TMX came to the rescue.  JD's chicken and veg soup for lunch with Isi's Portuguese rolls made into bread sticks.  They voted JD's soup perfect.    Date buttermilk scones from EDC book for morning tea,  I doubled the dates.   Mashed potato, EDC, with roast chicken  and vegs.for tea.

Today has been another full on in the kitchen. Why do kids have to eat??? - well eat soooo much 

Juice, porridge, yoghurt, Maddy's All In pasta sauce (yumm), Cheeseymites, bread, Rice pudding (the kids take it to school cold instead of the tins of Rice Cream and now I need to go and make probably the chocolate weetbix slice as I just had someone say from the kitchen that they have eaten the last biscuit   

[cookie1]

Spare Ribs:
I am new to all this having only had my thermomix for less than a week but I wanted to mention that tonight we are having the spare ribs from the master chef recipe series (http://www.masterchef.com.au/braised-pork-spare-ribs.htm ) and the marinade and the sauce are both well suited to make in the thermomix. I have just made it and saved probably an hour and a half!
