Baking


I spent the day baking for the kids school lunches.
I made Ham and Chesse scone pinwheels - my own recipe


2 cups of self raising flour
30g butter melted and mixed with milk until it measures 250mls
A handful of diced ham
A handful of grated cheese

Put the flour in a bowl and give it a stir with a whisk to add some air.
Pour in the butter and milk stir it in and form a dough. I use my hands to work them together and give it a quick knead.
Cut the dough into two and roll each piece into a long rectangle. Sprinkle on the cheese and ham.
Roll it up and slice it 1.5cms thick.
Place on a baking tray.
Brush with a little milk.
Put in a very hot oven for 10-15 mins.

The Zucchini Slice recipe came from the ABC

The Zucchini Muffins were modified from a recipe for Carrot and Zucchini Muffins from the ABC Site

First Day At School




The kids were up and dressed by 7.20am. They were so excited to be going to school. Rose was the only one who was a little shy. The first day started with lots of smiles and excitement.
