Shout out for a friend's blog

I knew Kavita and Pete back before they were married and were attending Warwick University. They were part of the filmsoc and the crowd that I hung with, including my ex-husband. It seems like a lifetime ago it really does. But anyways if you haven't checked it out, and you love food her blog is a great read, Kavey Eats. I have to admit I am inspired at times by her food descriptions. Hehe of course after each entry I have a craving to enter the kitchen.

But then again any that know me know that lately I have been back in the kitchen and experimenting a bit more with food again. I'm even tempted to try to make my own lemon curd! Yep you read it right, now if only I can find the right storage jar for it tho...but I have all the ingredients.

My love of cooking was inspired first by my Mum many years ago, getting in the kitchen and baking with her, then by the weird creations my Philipp used to make. Then I got lazy I admit it, however the last year I've re found the love of cooking through Rachael Ray.

So with an easy dinner tonight of thawed out french onion soup (made from scratch) I'm going to attempt a trifle (from scratch including the custard!) and yes I made the sponge!
