Monday 19th October - rather a lot of cake

 That chocolate cake was sooo good; shame it was such a little one.

I'll have to make another tomorrow. I've got plenty of eggs after the delivery yesterday, plus the single egg left over from last time.

This week I forgot to include breakfast cereal and potatoes in the order. There's always something. 

I have made dahl! First time ever. 

I picked a 'dump and go' slowcooker recipe from tamingtwins.com. I've got a very small slowcooker, so by the time I had added the chopped onion, tin of chopped tomatoes and tin of coconut milk to the pot it was nearly brim full. There was just room for the lentils but I left out the butternut squash. (I didn't have any, I was thinking of substituting celeriac). 

The result is delicious, in spite of using dried ground ginger and garlic granules instead of fresh. I left it cooking for an extra hour by mistake so I'll add a little more stock as it is rather thick.

It's going to make an excellent soup too.
