Another good way to use the TMX. When preparing a meal I save all the veggie and fruit trimmings and at the end of the day, mash them up with a bit of water. I tip this on to one of the raised garden beds.

Mother’s Day Celebration today as DD on call tomorrow. I’ll prepare meal throughout the day. Friend thought the biscuits ok. She also mentioned that she has just bought a crumpet loaf to try. I thought I might try to make a SD one next week.

Biscuits not so bad. I’ll get a friend to try them tomorrow and see what she thinks.

Got home late so made a prawn and mayo sandwich. Had made some long bread rolls so used 1/2 with lettuce from garden.
I find the large prawns better value than the small ones.

What a disaster. Made some biscuits and they were awful. Waste of good ingredients. Will try one again today and if still think them awful will chuck out.

Created a low carb recipe for Prawn pasta. Only 50 g of gluten free pasta. Tomato based with large prawns cut in half, mushrooms and water chestnuts. Lots of parsley and onion tops. Tonight, something similar.

KAtie, I keep my TMX stocks in the freezer.
Lemon and carrot marmalade. Tangelo marmalade.
I’m having a water filter installed tomorrow so will make something for morning tea. Maybe apple cakes.

Mab, seems like you could make a soupy broth from that.
New way to make chicken parmigiana. Kids liked it, not so fatty.
Line baking sheet , lay thin chicken slices on it. Spread tomato sauce then panko crumbs, then Parmesan. Bake moderate oven 10 minutes. Cover with melting cheese. Bake 5 mins.
I used turkey breast .
Tonight, prawn pasta.

Marina and Mab, both sounding positive. Great.
I’ve been doing some research on flour and bread baking.

Marina, glad you have come through the op ok. Lots of reading time coming up.
Mab, good that you can taste. You are a very good cook so I think you will be wonderfully creative.
Monday is always my busy day. Tai chi, mah jong, and kids for dinner.
