We have finally had some good rain.
The ground quickly soaked it all up because it was that dry
I hope we get even more rain. We really need it
After art class, which ran overtime by 45 minutes, I came home and headed into the kitchen
The cold weather makes me want to cook
All these ingredients were used.
I made two tuna bakes.
They’re only small, but they will still feed us over the two days and I’m sure there will enough for hubbys lunch Monday
I also made another half batch of the 100 cookies recipe
This time I rolled the dough out, spread the jam, snd then rolled into a Swiss roll.
I made two rolls. They need to be frozen so I can slice them into thin slices.
I’ll get them out tomorrow and let the thaw a little before slicing and baking. I’ve not tried this before so I hope they work. Even if they look like a hot mess, at least I know they will still taste good
For dessert I made a dump cake. This time I used canned fruit.

The rest of the day was spent watching the footy, our team won.
And now I’m sitting with the fire roaring.
I’ve not been able to sit and knit lately so progress is slow.
The good think is, it’s mindless and I can do it and not think of anything. A blessing right now.
Hope your Saturday is as blissful as mines been
I like reading about your cooking. And those cookies -- sounds like they're pinwheels? I hear you about needing distraction just now.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great Saturday and the rain makes it even better. I managed to do two loads of washing before it rained here. I brought it in before it got wet and used the dryer for the first time since last winter so I could fold and put away nice and warm and dry. I watched the football too but my team lost! Hope you have a good week.
ReplyDeleteI've never made or eaten a dump cake, but they intrigue me!
ReplyDeleteGood news about the rain.
ReplyDeleteI'm intrigued with the 100 cookie recipe and the dump cake. I shall Google them both.
Enjoy the fire and chilling out with knitting. You need the peace of mibd
