Last weekend I decided to try making some oat bread. I thought I would share the recipe with you. This is how I made it, slightly modified from the book I got it from, though I have given the full quantities not the half amounts that I used. You start with 8oz wholemeal bread flour,… Read More Oat Bread recipe
Well not really rocks, though the ground does look a bit rocky in this photograph! It’s another of my occasional posts about my garden and baking.

I decided last Friday that I would try and make one of the bread recipes in my food processor recipe book. One of the recipes said it made a sandwich loaf, so I thought that I would try that. Unlike most bread recipes the liquid used was milk. Now the first bread I had made… Read More Making more bread
I thought since I had gone to the trouble of taking the photographs, I would show you my Christmas cooking for this year. I made my normal twelve mince pies for the freezer. And as there was pastry and mincemeat over I made a mincemeat tart to be cooked and eaten straight away. I also made… Read More Christmas cooking and some bread
In March I showed you how far I had got with my new ripple blanket, my latest loaf of bread and the tulips glowing in the sunshine.
