Chit Chat / Re: What have you been doing today?

After being house bound for 10 days, yesterday I went to the big shopping centre in Ballarat. I have only been there about 5 times and quite enjoyed it. I bought a couple of things I couldn’t buy anywhere else.
I bought a cheap book on recipes for the sausage roll machine. It has recipes for using different types of casings. Filo, sandwich bread and wraps as well as puff pastry. It also has tips such as always starting with a cold machine and start timing from when the green light comes on.

Chookie I like to read rubbish books every now and then. Sometimes your brain just needs to be completely entertained.
Agree.

It’s lovely and cool here, after that dreadful heat. Might make some pumpkin soup with the chicken stock that I made yesterday.
I’m making a small loaf of bread in my small bread machine, every day. I’m  trying a different recipe each time. Perhaps a seed loaf with spices to have with pumpkin soup.

Marinated some chicken wings in a mixture of sweet chilli sauce and curry powder. Simple and tasty.   30 minutes in the Ninja BBQ. I lined it with paper liners that are made for AF baskets.

DD and I went shopping and had a coffee.
The fires seem really dreadful. Do take care everyone.

Judy I’m still discovering tips for the 7. I find it doesn’t mush food up as badly as the others.

Thank you Chookie , we are good . Although the fire next to us started up this morning and it burnt more than last night . Pushed DH out the door boots and all to go speedy to it . Off Boys went and first on the job again , lots of private units in the end , it burnt so quickly as it was a wheat crop not harvested . The power came on at 1am and I made a tea and put a load of fire clothes on . Boiled water filled the thermos - I was determined we were going to loose power again . I’m very tired today . We had a drive around it all and that helped . Really it’s nothing , so many loss of homes sheep and crops at all the big fires, so sad .
