One thing that's exciting for most of us at Christmas is the food. I've said before that I'm not a HUGE chocolate fan, I prefer sweets or crisps, but Christmas I tend to indulge a little more than usual, although by that I mean I'll have 4 chocolates from a selection box rather than 2! I know what you're thinking, I'm a rebel. One chocolate that I can never ever ever resist is....a Ferrero Rocher. Oooooo, aren't they lovely. Now Ferrero Rocher's are also the only chocolate I can eat lots of in one go. I *might* have polished off a pack of 10 a couple of weeks ago. Thinking to the end of the school term I want to get gifts for not only Charles' keyworker, but also the other staff members at his preschool because every single one of them is lovely. I thought about getting cupcakes made but it would completely break the bank (small budget) and I didn't want to buy 8 boxes of chocolates. And what better than Ferrero Rocher Cupcakes!

I love potato wedges. Simply because I think they make a great alternative to chips and can be served in many different ways. I love how the are suitable for Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. Served with Salad, Chilli or Pie. Earlier this year I posted a Cajun Potato Wedges recipe . Today I think I may have beaten this recipe. In terms of flavour and ease of making them. Using just one potato you can get a portion for one person. Before I used olive oil and heated my wedges in the microwave before adding the flavouring and then transferring into the oven. I wanted to reduce the time needing to cook and reduce the methods of the potato being cooked. So, I experimented and shockingly, was really pleased with my first attempt and will be making more to serve with dinner tonight! Ingredients: Potatoes (for my experiment I used one medium sized potato) 2 tablespoons of parmesan 2 tablespoons of natural breadcrumbs 1 egg Salt Pepper First chops your potatoes into wedges.

I was always a fan of school dinners. I either had a mixture of school cooked dinner, packed lunch or I went home for lunch. High school would normally involve us all having a slice of pizza and a cheeseburger in the break, then home for something light or nothing at all. It was a nightmare to queue up at lunchtime and the school had a silly system so it was easier to eat a bigger meal at morning break. The food cooked at Middle school was, now looking back, a mixture of junk and yummyness. They occasionally had a really nice flan. I remember it so clearly and wouldn't know how to recreate it! In those days too we were also served Jamie Olivers nemesis....Turkey Twizzlers. I'm not ashamed to say that actually, I quite liked them. The flavour was always quite nice. They were something like 20p per Twizzler and I would spend the majority of my £1.50 on as many Twizzlers as I could, with also a lump of mash potato and dessert, if I could afford it. Some desserts I liked and some I...
