What are you been cooking today

[achookwoman]

I have made 'No fuss" rolls, with egg wash.
Leek and potato soup.  This was made from 3/4 of a leek,  mashed potato left over from yesterdays lunch,  and Duck stock made from the Duck bones from yesterdays lunch.  Also added 2 small onions and 3 cloves of garlic.  Delicious.
Making Turkish Pide at the moment..

Never thought of slashing those 'no fuss' rolls Chookie - they look great.  Cheap soup too, gotta love that.

[achookwoman]

Judy,  they really pop up when you slash them.   Love cheap meals,  eggs and rolls for tea.  One chook has started to lay,  after I gave them a talking to.  Got to save for the next trip

So whats your secret words of wisdom to make them chooks lay? I have 5 chooks and getting 3 eggs in 2 days (1 and 2), I think its just too cold for them. Maybe a electric blanket might help

[faffa_70]

yep my chooks need a good talking too as well 

[judydawn]

Get the chook whisperer to come over and give them a good talking to Kathryn.

now that I could cope with  as long as she had a good talking WITH me too

I made some jaffa cupshakes for my girl to take to a party.
Unfortunately I used a different ganache method, so the chocolate wasn't set in time.  Oh well, there will be plenty of kids passing through to eat them up.



I used Louisa's whole orange cake, topped with chocolate ganache, and used the thermomix buttercream.

Wow Maddy they look fantastic. I bet the kids will love them.

Maddy the jaffa cupshakes look soooooooo cute - they would be a huge hit with young and old alike!!!!!!     

[Bedlam]

Maddy, you are so clever. They look scrummy.

[Very Happy Jan]

Those cupshakes look fabulous Maddy. You are so creative.
Nice stash of icecream Dede- do you need any help with eating it? 

[achookwoman]

Golly, you girls make me laugh.   you could tell your chooks that you are thinking of making chicken soup!!! Or you could  place an axe near the chook house door.  Really I think it is the cold weather, although if I were a chook I would like to sit in a nice warm nest.
Faffa,  might take you up on that.
Maddy, taking orders ?  What beautiful cup cakes.
