    I am insanely jealous. I would like to bake more, but I dont have a lot of time, but I do try to get something in the oven at least once a week. Nothing better than fresh homemade baked goods. And I also do a roast of some kind every week... does that count???

    Oh - gonna start another thread asking that! Love roasts mmmmmm

    Charmalea, I was ****e too, but finally now in my 30`s and many years of trying and failing, I have started to get quite good. And the better I get the more I want to do it. DONT GIVE UP YET!
    Its learning a few basic things like not over mixing batters that help.

    yep 2-3 times here too. Darcy loves it, keeps Nate amused watching her and I find, liike Astrid said it lasts longer if it's over the week.
    We make whatever takes our fancy at the time. Made a NewYork cheescake on DH's request on Monday, beetroot chocolate fudge brownies yesterday and tomorrow Darcy and I will make some pumpkin muffins. I don't really have lunch boxes to fill, though DH is getting a big kick out of how creative I can be with lunches since I'm off.

    I never bake atm. I look forward to baking again, but i need to buy everything to bake with, oven trays, sifter, mixing bowls etc, slowly but surely i will get back to baking again. I like baking bikkies, slices and cakes

    Cai, I have animals, a teapot, flowers, hearts, dinosaurs, trains, fairys, butterflys, cars, a jigsaw puzzle cutter set that is way cool, plain shapes, tiny mini shapes, christmas and easter ones, numbers, gingerbread family. I'm always on the lookout for new and interesting ones.
