funny but there's a huge lake out back and feels a bit cooler as you come down the road. anyway so far today I have made dark whole wheat bread, my personal favorite bread. also made more traditional Cornish pasties, and some cinnamon and raisin bagels. plus cooking a leg of lamb. time for a cup of tea I think :)

well it's got to be a record , customer the other day turned up as we took the new pasties out the oven, he decided to have one for dinner. after he finished he decided they were that good he took another 3 home, now here's the impressive thing, he returned in the morning ....because he already finished them all and wanted one for breakfast ***** . now that's what I call not being scared of a meal .5 very large pasties over 16 hours.
first few test Christmas mince pies done today, just waiting for them to cool to be tested

up and at it, more mince pies today, i'm sort of stuck though, should I do puff mince pies ? short crust ? or short crust with puff tops ? anyway after that time to make sage and onion sausage rolls , everyone keeps asking so I had better get some done. anyway whatever I seem to cook seems to be dish of the day ,which helps customers that have difficulty deciding what to eat, also got some beans soaking.. got the urge for a good chilli with lots of beans.
