Chit Chat / Re: CHALLENGE #2 - all welcome to join in!

I don't know about others but I love to read all the different comments re recipes. Especially if they differ. You can sometimes work out that your family likes similar things to .........family and therefore read their reviews knowing that alteration would probably be good for your tastes. I always note on the recipes people's comments and then add to them or scribble them out according to my tastes. I even find when I make things they can vary, it makes for lots of notes on my recipes.

I usually use basmati and oftne forget to stir it and it still seems ok and cooks in 13 minutes. Must be luck.

Over here the shops close at 5 or 6 all nights except Thursday when it is 9. Saturday is 9 to 5 and Sunday is closed. I love it when we travel East as the shops are open on Sundays.

Vegetarian / Re: Delicious Vegetable Quiche

I had  quite a bit of trouble sourcing the herb and garlic feta for this.
I chopped the onion and garlic in the TMX. Also made the pastry in it and blind baked it for about 7 minutes. I shredded the cheddar in the TMX too.
The idea of adding the cheeses to the vegie mix seemed new to me and I thought it would all stick but it didn't.

It was a lovely tasting quiche and quite different owing to the feta.
I give it 5/5

I made this exactly to the recipe and found it to be really nice. The coffee in it gave it a slight mocha flavour.
My only complaint was that I broke the timer and then I burnt it slightly. So even with a little extra browning it is very nice.

Oh. As you said whatever comes is a gift. Enjoy.

I did hear recently (don't know how much truth in it) that Aldi would not come to WA while we had such restrictive opening hours.

I've tried to remove mine recently and it keeps saying I have the password incorrect. I don't think I do. Will have to have another go.

Still too chicken to ring and ask. I actually made some Cape Seed Loaf yesterday and put it in a lidded bread tin. It was a tiny bit too much and literally 'crept' out of the gap between the lid and base. It was all wavy and very thin. Quite interesting to see.

I was disappointed that there wasn't a stand at the Perth show. Bit I guess they are getting enough business anyway and are probably very busy.

I wouldn't be without my carry bag, it's just perfect for lugging everything around. I feel that it's quite safe in the caravan too and not upsetting the scales.

The thought of a whole salmon is just amazing. It is something we don't have very often as it's over $30/Kg. The occasional small piece made into a quiche or something similar.
I hope you both really enjoy them.

I must hang my head in shame yet again. I posted this early this morning and the book is Lunch Box and After School Ideas not Budget Busters. DD has been on the computer all day (it is hers!) doing some work for her Masters so I didn't have the heart to try and kick her off.
