I only seem to update when I've got a recipe done...

Hopefully that will change as soon as this exam's over and I have a bit more brain space to work with. But I promise there's more to this than just me going on about what a brilliant cook I am :-)

Recipe #43 is "Rustic Greek Pie", which I found in a vegetarian cook book. It involves spinach, grated haloumi, crumbed feta, egg, and cream. It was very tasty! I need to do more stuff like this. There is one thing I want to try doing differently, and that's using puff pastry insted of shortcrust. The shortcrust worked well, but I think it could be better.

Phil and I bought Christmas decorations tonight! =D I'm finally properly excited about Christmas again. I hated it for several years while I worked at arse Kmart, still hated it in my first year out teaching, and hated it reasonably less last year. Now, I'm finally glad to be having one :-)

We don't have a tree yet. We'll be getting that at some point in the near future and putting it up in December. I'm also planning to buy modelling clay to make decorations of my own!

It's all very fun :-)
