I just wanted to share a couple of photos from my week, although there will be more to come as I have spent some time in Jersey this week and took quite a few snaps. This week was all about food (many of my weeks are!) It was valentine’s day so I spent a lovely evening at home with hubby. Dinner consisted of steak pie with vegetables and a chocolate mousse topped with a heart chocolate. There was also quite a bit of champers… Yummy! I also seem to be going a bit mad for stir fry and miso soup (well at least that’s healthy I suppose!) Keep an eye out for some Jersey photos on the blog next week.

I made homemade lentil soup for dinner tonight, served with homemade granary bread and Guernsey butter. I can’t for the life of me remember where this recipe came from, but it was so delicious I just had to share …

Image details – Truffles by David Leggett, via Flickr
On Tuesday night, my dear crafty pal Jo and I attended a chocolate truffle making workshop. It was good fun, although I must confess, I don’t think we are ‘natural’ truffle makers. Clearly, the gorgeous truffles in the photograph above were not made by us! It was quite a messy experience and we spent most of the evening covered in melted chocolate. But it was a giggle! I recorded a little audioboo about it for you and also took a few photos. Enjoy…

Now Autumn is well and truly here, it’s time for warming, hearty dinners. One of hubby’s favourites is chilli, not least because I tend to make a large batch and put at least half in the freezer. This recipe came from my mother-in-law and has been tweaked a little along the way. I hope you like it.

It’s all about food in my household at the moment. I’ll be back to my traditional knitting/sewing/etc craft this weekend, all being well, but for now, it seems my blog is something of a food fest.

Those of you who listen the iMake podcast will know that I have been pondering getting a breadmaker for a while. Thanks to everyone who contacted me offering advice on whether to buy one or not. Thanks to a number of you, I was convinced that purchasing a breadmaker would enhance my life immeasurably (and they call me an enabler!) So through Amazon I purchased the Panasonic SD-2501WXC Automatic Breadmaker with Nut & Raisin Dispenser & Gluten Free Program.

I cannot seem to stop blogging about food! This time, it’s nothing to do with my cooking or growing exploits.
Quick side bar: the iMake blog is supposed to be all about ‘the handmade’, but the reason I felt compelled to blog about what follows is because, quite frankly, it is one of the most creative and fabulous business ideas I have come across in a long time. I wish I’d thought of it and presented it to the lovely Peter Jones in the Dragons’s Den… Anyway, I digress, where was I?)
