Sim I have to admit I used tea bags( chai ones) and put them in the basket and added the milk to the bowl and put the TMX on speed 4 (I think) so that the milk churned around the tea bags and heated it to 70. Then poured it and added a tiny bit of honey.
Next time I go near a T2 shop I will get some Chai.

I think it's a fairly healthy obsession. :-\ :-\

I hope all the West Aussies have registered in the poll (Where are you from?) Can't let "tother siders" beat us. (Even if we have to go out and purchase a TMX to be able to vote)

Bronte, I've been to quite a few of the classes at Charlie Gardiner and have always found them really good. They are quite different to the Back to Basics classes and you get lots of ideas and tips.

Welcome Thermobron, it's lovely to have another West Aussie here.  I hope you don't have to wait too long to receive your machine.

I wonder how the 5 seed bread is going?  I don't find it heavy at all. If it is too heavy for you perhaps 2 risings would solve that. We also love the Cape Seed bread, especially DD is most of the seeds are milled in that one.
Cyndi's herb bread is lovely too, you don't have to put the herbs in it.

After reading your recipe Sim I've had several Chai teas. The first couple I didn't rave about but then it was the sort of taste I wanted to go back too.  I cheated though and used tea in the TMX bowl and made it with milk that way.  The only thing I can't get used to is the fact that it really does need the honey.
Thanks for helping me to discover a new taste.

Over the last couple of years I've stopped icing my cakes as we're trying to take care of weight etc. (damn BIL for having that heart attack at 60) I did ice the Carrot and White Chocolate cake though and it was lovely. A real treat.
But then we don't have hungry people who will burn up all the energy in no time at all.

Yum. What's another kilo or two.  DD makes a Nigella one similar to this but much more difficult and time consuming.
Thanks.

This sounds delicious. I too love recipes that have the sauce in the bowl. Makes things easy and impressive. A....N......D sweet potato is low GI.

Thanks for the reminder about the tablespoon size. I would be just as likely to read the beginning of the book after we'd had a few over flavoured curries. As they always say, when all else fails read the instructions (or beginning of the book) :P

I've had the book for a while but must admit I haven't made much, only the Curried fish and that was ages ago. I've written in the book that it was nice but for 3 of us I'll only need half.
On Friday night my friend had made the Fish Pie. The taste was lovely. I believe she had added some smoked oysters and marina mix to hers.

I was thrilled to see Ablett win. ;D ;D ;D I think he's had a hard run. I was really pleased to see he beat Judd by 8 -( I think.)
Sour grapes isn't it now he plays for Carrrton?

I'm going to be lost without my AFL each weekend, I'll start reading the newspaper from the front for a while.
