Instant Coffee: October 2016:

There's nothing wrong with instant coffee providing you avoid the cheapest and don't boil the kettle ("Coffee boiled, is coffee spoiled"), and pour the water on the granules slowly.

Of course, I do prefer "proper coffee" most of the time...

Cooked Breakfast: June 2016:

This would technically be a Scottish breakfast because it includes haggis.

Time for tea: May 2016:

I do like this cute little one cup and teapot combination I picked up at a charity shop. I did manage to drop the lid at a later point in time, but thankfully all the pieces were successfully glued back together. In this pot I use loose-leaf tea with a slice of ginger, but other times I will use a teabag in a mug.

Cake: February 2016:

I'm not so good at baking sponge cakes, but the custard helps.

Acquiring and Bread Machine: January - March 2016:

It's not until 2018 that I finally get hold of the proper manual and recipe book for this Goodmans bread maker.

A not so great loaf...

It turned out the machine was sat on an uneven worktop. Often now I check, part the way through the mixing cycle, to ensure all the flour is mixed into the forming dough.

Soft and fluffy and white...

A milk loaf with white bread flour.

I usually make a whole wheat loaf with half white bread flour.
