Behold my not-so-soft rolls. If I were aiming for heavy dinner rolls, they'd be perfect. Unfortunately they were supposed to be light and fluffy. But never mind. It tastes like Bread, looks like it and nobody has gotten food poisoning. Although I can see why bakers can become muscle-bound in the arms.

VOILA the first real meal I have cooked, from dead chicken and mostly dead vegetables. Sweet potato mash, a portabello mushroom topped with the 3 colors of capsicum and cheese, resting on half of one of the aforementioned rolls. And pan-fried chicken with creamy onion sauce. Miracle of miracles, everything was cooked without burning, seasoned without oversalting and generally went well. The is Hope for me Yet. (Yes I know it looks rather unappetising but I swear it tastes a lot better, if not good.)

See the fruits of my crafty labour. The purple fleecy gumdrops with wings. They are hereby christianed Fleedrops until I come up with a cleverer name for them. Tragically the blue chalklines are dead obvious on the white one. From these three shall come my Crafting Empire and great fame and fortune will flow in my general direction. I hope.

My feet are tired.
