ok so it was a toss up between pandan cake, butter cake and chocolate cake this weekend and i felt that i had to give the pandan cake a second shot before i moved on. for some reason i couldn’t access the webpage that the old recipe was on, so i went for a different [...]
fun in the kitchen – coffee cake

after my almost success with the pandan cake i decided that i would give a coffee cake a go. i used this recipe.

fun in the kitchen – chicken, carrot and leek casserole

after my slightly disappointing chicken casserole from timothy’s fine foods, i decided to make my own version. of course, someone out there might try this recipe and decide that it needs even further flavouring, so really my casserole ingredients is a reflection of my taste buds and may not actually be everyone’s cup of tea!

brenda has been telling me about pie in the sky (43 olinda-monbulk road, olinda 03 9751 2128) for a while now, but the one and only time i visited mt dandenong was with dad last year and we only headed to miss marples tea room, which apparently is in a different direction entirely.

i wandered by timothy’s fine foods (387 glenhuntly road, elsternwick 03 9523 6392), and a signboard that said “ready made dinners!” caught my eye [...]
