While you were away ...

Ok.

I am going to apologize in advance.

This is going to be a massive dump. No words, just a whole lotta photo's i have on my phone from stuff we have doing in the kitchen since i have been away for the last year (or so *ahem*).

I will try an remember what was what and name each photo... but no promises.

And unfortunately no recipes, because some of these i don't even remember making :)

Ok, I think it is one of the snack selections from our epic game days. Looks like cheese stuffed meatballs, Chicken wings (siracha and lemon maybe) and my favorite "something in pastry"

Ah! The pizza experiment. I thought i was a bit risque with ham, salami, capsicum, prawn and avocado. But the Mr G pulled out the big guns and created his monstrosity that was cheese spread, bonito, hoisin, anchovy. There was more, but i have blocked it from my memory. Eating it was like being punched in the face.
