Homemade peanut butter



I did this a few days ago. Homemade peanut butter! We can't get a regular/decent supply of peanut butter here so it finally dawned on me to make it. A was literally standing by just waiting for a yummy peanut butter and honey sandwich. It turned out pretty well and A loves it. Not as smooth as I had hoped and am not sure if that is because of the quality of my food processor or not. Anyway, all I did was buy a packet of roasted and salted peanuts, throw the contents in the food processor and blend. It takes a few minutes. I added a few slugs of olive oil as it was going to moisten it a bit and a tiny little bit of sugar (I like the mix of sweet and salty). I am very happy with it and it will certainly be used a lot around here for the favourite sandwich combo and now I can add some to a quick satay recipe! Yum.

Foodie love


One of my favourite people in the whole world, the lovely Karen Anderson, has started a new blog (in addition to her cool photography one).  Check out this Chicken Laksa!  Wonderful recipes (only a couple so far but keep a close eye - she is a fabulous cook), ratings for popularity with her kids and especially gorgeous photos.  A can't miss combination!
