Introducing Plenty & Valley

These are the two ladies who work so hard at giving me eggs at the moment. Their names are Plenty and Valley, and they live at our local community garden.

They are laying very well at the moment, and will be joined in the next couple of months by 5 chicks hatched at my son's pre-school, they are currently stinking up my laundry, teasing my cat and confusing Creme & Puff. But they are so cute!

crème & puff (bouffée)

My two excuses/distractions for staying away from the kitchen and the computer this month, aside from trying to loose some kilos. School holiday's are over and we only have a 10 week term so it's going to be really busy around here, especially with the many birthdays and the lead up to Christmas. And then next year my oldest starts big boy school, we are all so excited.

My new 12 week old Faverolle Chickens. Faverolle a French Heritage Breed originated in the mid 1800's. They they will lay the most deliciously fresh eggs for me to use in my masterpieces. This picture is not the best but they were so excited about being let out.

So, I am back in the kitchen as of 1400hrs today and will be baking solidly for the next 7 days. So there will be lots for you to look at soon. Wish me luck.
