I made some Florentines from Cookidoo, I didn't put the chocolate on them. A rye SD loaf (still rising) and a Spicy Fruit loaf from Cookidoo.

Mab I'm so glad you are home now. Take care.
I was planning on a cook in today, but then the power went off. It rarely happens here. After an hour it came back on so I got going.

Beef in Oyster Sauce with rice. I had a couple of apples in the fridge, so I have made an apple crumble with macadamias in the crumble. It yum.

I feel these have too much baking powder in. I could taste it over the almonds. I will use 2 teaspoons next time.

I did my grocery shopping this morning. Life has settled down a lot this week. DH is still lining cupboards etc in the motorhome.

I made these Almond Biscuits from RTE. They had 4 teaspoons of baking powder, it was too much. https://www.recipetineats.com/cretan-biscuits-greek-almond-cookies/

Here I am with another oops. I made some shortcrust pastry for last night’s quiche. When I’d finished it I thought that it looked a bit dry so added some more water. Popped it into the fridge to rest. When I was rolling it out it seemed dry. I finished the quiche and cooked it. YUK. I hadn’t put very much water in at all. It was crumbly and tasted horrid. I later realised that I had spilled the water container, not put it into the thermomix bowl.
I must be more careful. Some lovely butter wasted and the quiche is hardly edible. The pastry looked reasonable but certainly wasn’t.
Oh well. 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀

Today was the day to pick up the Suzuki. It’s automatic so I have to remember not to try putting the clutch in. I plan to go and sit in it and play tomorrow. It’s not as smooth as my Hilux was. It has more gadgets but not a lot as it’s not a special car. It has lane departure and a few other things I will soon discover. It’s so tiny after the Hilux.
