just because it's tea time...

I thought I'd share with you the results of Saturdays [accidental] mega bake-a-thon....
Please bear in mind this was my first ever attempt at making bread without the supervision of a mother...

 [Super mega-bake-a-thon]

I was so super pleased with the results that I had to phone Mummy dear and ask her to go onto Skype so I could show her the results! Unfortunately she was on her way out and asked to be shown the results via blog-land.

[Variety of breads]

So ta-da! Above we have a white loaf, sun dried tomato and parmesan buns and a sun dried tomato and parmesan twist.
I was on the phone to Dad mid white loaf baking when I rapidly had to put the phone down as the loaf had risen so much I was afraid it was about to stick to the roof of the oven!

[The super expanding white loaf]

But as you can see all was well with the tasty tasty loafy-ness [drool], it did not require scraping from the roof of my oven.

 [Bacon and egg quiche & sausage rolls]

[Sausage rolls & maids of honor]

To accompany the fresh bread we also had a bacon and egg quiche, sausage rolls, maids of honor and a chocolate cake. As well as many other tasty delights which constitute what is known as a 'tea-tea' at home.
I felt quite homesick this weekend and baking was a comfort - however not having family to eat it all with was a bit of a bummer but at least I have cake to make me feel better!
Right I'm off to plough my way through the remainder. :)
See you soon [when I' about 12 stone heavier and shaped like a cake]
