I had a fabulous friday yesterday, weeding the garden, picking the first of our lettuce, cooking (lots), cycling to Bromley and back, and some study which was slightly less fabulous but necessary.

These cookies are chocolate chip cookies, not exceptional, but nice enough. I took the recipe from Sainsburys Magazine.

This chicken with sweetcorn mash dish was what we had for lunch. It was another magazine clipping. I’d had it for ages and am now working through the pile, trying out all these new recipes.
I enjoyed cooking this one, though it isn’t going into my box of ‘must do again’. I was pleased with the way I cooked the chicken – I didn’t overcook it for once!

Another magazine clipping, this lime ice cream was light but needed some fruit to go with it. The recipe suggested kiwi, but we’re not big fans. I’m going to buy some raspberries to go with what’s left.
It looks like whipped cream because it is! Whipped double cream, zest and juice of 6 limes and some icing sugar. Simple.
Now you know why I had to get on my bike in the afternoon to burn off all those calories!
