Week 8 and the pressure is really on now to find a job...ahhhhhh. I dont yet have a job and am feeling the pressure, lots!

Meanwhile Im still learning and dont think Im anywhere near being able to take on a job in a kitchen but there ya go.

This morning I made "Mummy's Sweet White Scones" - they turned out beautifully and got stolen quite quickly!

Next on to "Spiced Pan Roasted Pear Cake". This is an upside-down cake made in a frying pan. Sugar & butter melted in bottom, pears placed on top and cake batter on top - baked & then turned out - looks fantastic (usually!). For some reason I took my cake out of the oven & turned it out before I checked to see if it was actually cooked so then had to slide it on to a tray and put it back in. But something was just not right - it didnt set like its supposed to but I cant figure out why. This is why there is a picture of a scone & not a lovely cake.

I also made some buffalo chips which are basically unpeeled potatoes cut into very large wedges & deep fried.

Finally I made some glazed carrots.
