I'm really tempted to say I haven't blogged for so long because I've been busy, but that's just not true :P I've been lazy. Lazy, lazy, lazy. Cooking different dinners for everyone every night gets very tiring and I guess I've also been in a slump, although I'm starting to feel like being in a cooking slump is the norm for me! I have baked, but they've all been family favourites and I've eaten lots of reheated UFO's (unidentified frozen objects) from my freezer and many many nights of things like rice and beans, repeats and dinners of just plain processsed cr%p!

Some of the highlights however were Vegan Dad's Chicken Wings in patty form, the kids just love these:
Sausage Bean Patties which were yummy but not as good as the ones we had last night:
I had an absolute disaster with these:
Purple Kohlrabi. Beautiful to look at, but not recommended to steam then shallow fry. They were so awful I LET us all throw them out!

In between all those I managed to kill my computer and needed to do a reinstall which meant that all my photos got moved over to the portable hard drive and I think this only suceeded in making me even lazier to take and upload photos!

Then I lost my camera cord, but I managed to dig it up today :)

Last night I decided to pull myself together a little and make something I saw blogged about the other day here. I had no old bay seasoning (I've never seen it in Australia) and wouldn't probably eat it because of the cayenne pepper so I googled away and came across this which I followed exactly minus the cayenne pepper. I made the burgers as the recipe states only omitting the cayenne pepper from them and using whole rye flour instead of whole wheat and using fresh cooked mushrooms instead of tinned. They were really yummy! The kids weren't so keen but I'll definitely be having these again:
Tonight I'm whipping up something new that will hopefully be yummy so stay tuned :P
