Hi There! My name is Kat and I am the author of this blog! Apparently...
... if this blog had an author ... who actually wrote it ... regularly ... ?
As my dearest, darling pen pal Rosie will confirm, and as I have probably explained before... regular writing is not really my forte... I write to her about once a year. Mostly. Except for last year. When I wrote, like, three letters and posted approximately none of them. Pen pal of the year right here!
The point of this little rant is that I'm still here! Still cooking! Still blog stalking all my favourites... :) And now I will do some rabid posting for a little bit... if not here then maybe here or there...? We'll see...
For now, I'm going to start clearing some of my ever-growing back log of images of food that I've made!
Starting with these:
Honey biscuits! Which I made for a friends Nana who'd just had surgery and lives near-by...
This recipe comes from a book called, interestingly enough, Honey Biscuits , that I read in primary school about a boy who bakes with his Grandmother who explains where all the ingredients come from... it was my favourite book! The recipe which was explained throughout the story is printed in full...
This is the version I wrote out, from memory, so that I could bake them with my Grandma (I was probably 6-7)
And this is the translation of my pictograms (spelling wasn't my thing)
Down the far side of the page is 12-13 year old me writing the translations in... I've cropped that bit because it wasn't so cute!
These biscuits are small nuggets of spicy honey flavour and simple/cheap enough for students of any age to make!
Cream together 120g each of butter and sugar...
Stir in 180g flour, 1 tsp of cinnamon and 1 Tbsp of honey.
Beat in one egg yolk (use the whole egg if mixture seems too dry)...
Roll into small balls and coat with a mixture of cinnamon and sugar.
Press the balls slightly onto a greased baking sheet 1" apart.
Bake at 180 degrees C until golden - about 10 ish minutes.
Enjoy with a glass of milk!
