GRANDMA's BACK!

Grandma: The shady cook from 'Grandma's comfort food' whose recipes lie a third of the time, and I have the burnt enchiladas to proove it!


Was shopping at sainsbury's recently when while waiting at the till I saw an interesting thing on a nearby display stand.

'Grandma's Best Recipes'

hmmm....... I instandly wanderd out of the que and picked up the cute country designed book. I flick few the pages and sure enough I see a few of the same recipes from 'Comfort foods' and a ton of new ones. The book was reasonably cheap at £5.99 so I decided to purchase it and see if Grandma was still the lying whore I knew she could be.

New recipes include soups, sauces, fried dishes, cakes even scones (if I liked scones) the book even has prettily designed labels at the back that read: Made with love by.....  and baked with love by....... you know if you were going to gift your successful endevours to someone. But I wouldnt cut things out of a book this pretty....

Is it useful? Well we'll have to wait and see.

For now I'm going to watch some more stargate universe and probably forget to do my creative piece draft fro tomorrows lecture. Hazzah!

So yeah...... not bad, not great either, don't get me wrong I've had fun this past month I mean October was BRUTAL but november was cool. The christmas fair opened up in town and before that was a nice fireworks eve  with friends but now is the start of DECEMBER!

23 days till XMAS bitches! And I ave so much to do, assignments FYP, shopping, visiting.....

sigh...

Then I rememberd 'oh yeah! I has a blog!' So I logged in and low and behold, the old fashioned wallpaper I once thought was quaint now killed my soul alittle so I have changed things up once again into fluffy pink madness to brighten my mood.

Anywho I thought I'd give another push for doing more cooking, having been confined to ready meals for money problems which thankfully no longer exsist. So I will be cooking more, Im planning to bake mince pies for family and friends, yay!

Some things dont change though....I still suck at baking, made a batch of cookies last night curtesy of a few mixed recipes I had, I put to much sugar in because damn did they come out crunchy.... and alittle burnt so keeping with in tradition there  :)

So watch this Space and i'll try and keep you posted.
