What are you cooking today?

Made Trudy's Lemon Muffins. Made 12 large ones.  I think they are more cake than muffin, but still delicious.  Thanks Trudy. GC loved them.
Also made Pear and Gingerbread pudding.

Sounds delicious Chookie. Is the recipe for pear and gingerbread pudding on the forum?

Chookie's Pear and Ginger Pudding

It was great reading this thread!
Not only a lovely sounding pudding as pears come into season.
But an historic account of a time when achoockwoman posted one of her first photos!
I must try the recipe

Your muffins and pudding both sound nice Chookie.

Cookie your hot cross buns and bread look good.

I have Kimmy's Boiled Fruit Cake in the oven at the moment.  I am hoping it will be ready before we have to leave for a friends 80th birthday party lunch.  The family are coming tomorrow for lunch so I am going to make some hot cross buns and leave them in the fridge over night and then cook them tomorrow.  I'll also make a trifle when we get home this afternoon.

I've made a sweet potato/chicken curry and a batch of Chookie's rice.

[cookie1]

Do you freeze some of the rice Judy?  There seems to be a lot!   

[judydawn]

Yes cookie, I froze 2 lots of the curry and 3 bags of rice separately. I always like to have bags of rice in the freezer, it makes great fried rice or a quick base for a saucy meal.

Chocolate chip cookies and a loaf of banana bread here then needed a little sleep.
