Sunday Night Meals

Righto who has the best easy, no fuss Sunday night meal?  My poor hubby and Crazy 1 are currently sitting at Park Island watching a friend play soccer.  What, wait!  Why did I say POOR, it was their decision to go, no one was MAKING them go exactly.  Oh and I should mention it is POURING with rain and feels like it is about 2 degrees outside.

Crazy 1 couldn't understand why I didn't want to go - THIS MUMMA HAS GOT BRAINS!!!!!! That's why.

Anyway - dinner.  Seeing as they will no doubt come home freezing cold I'm thinking sausages, spaghetti, chips and eggs sounds good.  Do you have any other ideas??? 

Unfortunately for us our two boys eat a can of this EACH!

New treasures

Crumbs I think my home decor tastes are changing thanks to the NZ House & Garden mag!  These are the latest treasures I have acquired.  I am in LOVE!

Music Making

Oh boy I wish you could hear the carnage going on in my house at the moment.  Crazy 1 singing at the top of his lungs to try and be louder than Crazy 2 who is currently playing the drums on a tin biscuit tin with a pen.  Its fabulous.  Who needs order, calmness, and peace in their day???  Not me thats for sure.  Perhaps I may join them.

Recipe - Cravings

Hmmmmmmmmm I have unfortunately discovered this devine slice.  It doesn't look like your usual gooey goodness chocolate caramel slice, or ginger crunch, but it is OH SO YUMO!!!!!

Chinese Chew

125gm butter
1dsp golden syrup
1 egg
1cup flour
1cup sugar
1cup coconut
1cup raisins
1tsp baking powder

Melt butter and G/syrup together.  Allow to cool (I am usually too impatient so don't!) then mix in egg.  Mix together all dry ingredients in a bowl and add the butter mixture.  Mix all together and spread in a sponge roll tin.  Bake at 150c until cooked (I know thats helpful, I cook mine for 15 mins then about another 10 - you want it to have a nice golden top).  Cut it into squares when hot.

YUMO!
