I got a kitchenaid for my birthday, WAHOO! It’s the love of my life, I am so excited. So far I have used it to make (disastrous) bread, lovely mashed potatoes and some royal icing. The bread burnt on the outside and was still raw on the inside! I STUPIDLY didn’t knead it, I just let it whizz around on the bread hook for a few minutes. I am such a moron! I can’t believe the stupidity of my mistake. At least the cooked bits did taste nice. It was garlic and sundried tomato and parmesan bread which I made up myself. The technique let me down!
This week I am going to make Lisa’s bday cupcakes to take up to Sheffield at the weekend =) can’t wait =)

Here is a list of items I currently want to bake:
A pie – steak, chicken and mushroom, something else? Not sure on filling but I have never even made pastry on my own so that’s what I’m looking forward to really.
Cornish pasties
Bread. I bought a sundried tomato packet mix yesterday (delicious!) just to try and tide my baking urges over until the weekend, but I really want to make some from scratch.
Macaroons – coconut ones and almond ones.
Soda bread! Not sure that I could just eat this for sandwiches for a week or whatever so might have to wait for an appropriate occasion. But I can’t think of one! Anyway.
That’ll do for now. Also want to make some oreo cupcakes but cakes will come under my VaNella goal =)
I prefer to eat things made from scratch, you know exactly what goes into it then! .... To watch what you eat, make it yourself =)
