In the kitchen

Today I felt better than I have in a couple of weeks. I had sinus and ear pain which is the reason I’ve not been sleeping.

not sleeping means no energy. So I’ve only done the minimum, except when I had the girls. I don’t mind. Playing and interacting with them isn’t a chore

while watching reels on Facebook I came across a couple of recipes

I knew I had all the ingredients and decided well I’ll make that

first one was called apple surprise

cut up apples and place in oven proof pan cover with condensed milk

then you make a cake like batter and pour on top

I put brown paper in first, which the lady in the reel didn’t do my bottom was soggy instead of nicely browned

next time I’ll just grease the pan well and see how I go

it still tastes good and is a perfect dessert and morning tea for the boys

dinner. Hubby had already taken some out. Sausage is home grown, it looks greasy in the picture but it really wasn’t

lastly I made herb and cheese bread I actually started making this first. Obviously it had to rise and then a second rise. Because of all that it was the last thing to cook in the oven

it’s still cooling so we haven’t tasted any yet. It smells good so I’m hoping it tastes just as good as the smell

and lastly, we have a long weekend coming at the end of the week.

we will be going to the farm. We also have some friends coming to spend the weekend with us.

hubby has parked the van out front so I can pack it as I think of something that I need to take.

even so. I bet I forget something. In this case it doesn’t really matter as the town is only ten minutes away.

not like the old days of us camping out in the middle of nowhere. Us oldies need to be near doctors and hospitals these days
