Well, it's Wednesday night so not usually the time when I have a big
baking blitz, but it's for a special cause. The Customs officers at work
are having a fundraising event tomorrow. One of their colleagues has
breast cancer and they're helping her raise money for a particular
medication. They're holding a morning and afternoon tea - various people
are donating the goodies, you come along and pay $2 for all you can eat.
I've made a batch of Molasses Sugar Cookies (from Barb's recipe, and with
some of the molasses left from the supply Barb sent me for the
gingerbread at Christmas). I made these at Christmas time and they're
very good - I have to give them away though as I find them very moreish!
I've also made 2 Apricot and Walnut Loaves
(http://www.pauls.com.au/products/products.cfm?/section/3/subsection/164)
- didn't have any buttermilk so just soured some milk and used that and a
Chocolate Coconut Slice
(http://www.cadbury.com.au/sites/cadbury/index.php?pageId=141) - just
waiting for this to finish cooling so I can ice it and then go to bed!
I think that will have to do - everything seems to have turned out OK.
Hopefully there'll be plenty of other contributions as well and they'll
raise a goodly amount.
