This morning I only did what I was meant to do, proud of me?!

First up - Brown Soda Bread. A little wet apparently but I was assisted in adding the milk so I dont mind this criticism!

On to the Spicy Apple Chutney - prepared the apples & onions and threw the rest of the ingredients (spices, sugar, vinegar & sultanans) into a big pot and left it simmer away for 1 1/2 hours.

Next I scrubbed my potatoes, pricked them a couple of times and whacked them in the oven to bake for an hour.

Then Watercress Soup. Started to sweat the onion & potato while I undertook the tedious task of picking the nice leaves from all the horrible stalks of watercress & washed really well. Added stock & creamy milk to the veg and brought to the boil. Added the watercress and brought back to the boil, then pureed. Yum!
