After reading Cookie's comments DH made the meatballs with polenta from the TMX+ magazine for our dinner tonight. I think it is one of my favourite tmx meals ever! The polenta was just so delicious!!!

Judy, I had forgotten what a lovely loaf this is. It has a good texture , not too dense. I had some stone ground organic rye flour, beautiful.
I don't think I could cope with that ice cream, Judy.
Nice work Jams DH.
I made Chicken Marengo in SC.

Beautiful looking loaf Chookie, I love rye bread. Judy I'll take the middle of Chookies loaf, you can have the ends, I'm not an ends person, always save this'd for DH.
Jamberie I will take another look at that magazine, to be honest, they sit on a shelf and barely get looked at with all the other great books and resources available.

Nice loaf Chookie.  I made a plain loaf on Saturday, don't know what happened to it but it seemed to sink from the sides in.  DH thought it looked as if it was exhaling :D

Obbie your fudge is looking good.

This morning I made a nice porridge recipe from Donna Hay, called Coffee & date porridge.  It was a little too dark to take a photo at the time, but will do so next time as I will make it again.

A bit later I made a Smoked salmon chowder for DH which was lovely from the taste I had.




I had the second serving of a meal I made yesterday called Heatlhy beef stew with spiralized zucchini for lunch.  Lovely flavours.



I also made a fudge cake from an email from RecipeTinEats (will post link below). 

Very easy to make but even cutting into 12 slices instead of 8, I found the serving sizes too large for this sort of thing.  I think it would be perfect to bake in a rectangular tin and then cutting into small squares.  This would work well for a gathering and make for a much more enjoyable serving size. 

The second photo was taken immediately after frosting and I suggest refrigerating for a few hours after frosting (and before cutting) to allow the frosting to set and make it easier to cut cleanly.

Really nice and is what I ended up having for my dinner.  ;D

What a great day of cooking you've had Julie.  Your fudge cake looks even fudgier than the original.

Julie, I would love to eat your chowder, beef and chocolate cake. They all look amazing.
I took pity on my family as I haven't baked in weeks. I made a ginger slice similar to CC's ginger crunch, but with oats in the base. I also made a double batch of biscuits with a half eaten box of Special K that no one has been eating. I got sick of it taking up space in the cupboard and made a version of cornflake and choc chip biscuit. Just as well that I made a double batch, as half has already disappeared.
