Lenten update ~ Today I baked favourite cupcakes for a team member who is “coming in from the cold” of a remote office and holidays. I think he fancies himself the Prodigal Son so this should add to his self-legendary status.
Remember how I said I was going to have a Serenity Sunday? Even my efforts to have a “semi” Serenity Sunday failed miserably! My family was justified in laughing when I suggested it. I’m going to try harder next week not to fail to relax!
Speaking of FAIL – I had a massive cake fail today that was so bad I broke a knife trying to pry it out of the pan. Take 2 of the tried and true was much better 
I did manage to have a wonderful coffee date with my wonderful husband today to Maitland Taste Festival where I had a yummy chocolate covered strawberry
and promptly dribbled it on my white shirt!
I also bought some wonderful foodie items including a lemon myrtle salt and a relish from my favourite relish maker, Tar 10. Their items are AMAZING and I was devastated when they discontinued my fave relish, spicy pumpkin. I even emailed them to ask and was told it was not available. So today I was speaking to the lovely lady manning the booth when I mentioned my sadness as this loss and she directed me to the Ploughman’s Pickle which was exactly like the pumpkin but with onion added in – bonus!
A lovely coffee later and I stumbled upon this booth….
But I did not buy anything because the booth annoyed me……anyone care to guess why?
But back to dinner ~ because I had a lovely coffee date planned I popped on the slow cooker before we left and family gave the double thumbs up. Just remember that I told you last week you would need to make the Cream of Chicken Soup for a recipe coming up? Well, here it is with fantastic results! The recipe is below as well as a second chance to win the Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker!
Slow Cooker Ham and Potato Casserole ~ (Serves a small army + leftovers)

500 grams potatoes diced (skins on if desired)
1 Tbls dried minced onion
1 tsp salt
