Wow! I was excited before, now I am desperate to go! Thanks for all these great ideas, I'll make sure I take lots of photo's for my blog!

Just a simple white loaf, check out my blog if you like I've put some pics up too! I'm thinking of trying Irish soda bread next :)

Yeah, I doubt I am going to try and bake some a couple of times a week, quick question, does anyone know of a way in which I can freeze some dough in advance for a quick bake? or at what stage I can freeze it? I mean, fresh baked is ideal i know but I was wondering.

Yeah I made a whole entry on my blog dedicated to it, many pics :) I have almost eat it all already, I think your right Jacquie I do feel like making some more!

I will see what I can do! You should really think about starting a campaign to try and get one opened near by, or move house :)

Its true Donut love is a pure kind of love, and as such deserves a place in every major ceremony, be it a marriages or a Bar Mitzvah.

Its about 10:00 here and its a beautiful spring day, certainly a day for a dozen donuts in the park!

Delia Smith recommends using them in a Ragu, I have used them several times and tyhe always adds a lovely flavor to the Ragu.

Has anyone tried that new Starbucks smooth and welcoming brew? Been trying to find out if us Brits' will be getting it no, no news as of yet.

Whats wrong with chicken salad Mike?

Being in the UK I usually catch the dinner suggestions a little too late, but the Asparagus with Fried Egg and Parmesan was too much to resist after work, I had to have it!

I am 23 in human years, but cookery years I feel I am possibly a little stunted, my up bringing was working class, and whilst the food we ate was delicious, the focus was on the nutrition and content rather than of flavor.

Now I am becoming far more adventurous in the kitchen, I'm currently reading up on curing my own bacon. I see cooking now as a way of cooling down from my work life (psychiatric nurse) rather than getting sustenance.
