Recent Things: Floor Disasters and Mulch Machines

Well hello there, Happy Friday! What a week it has been.

My house seems to be a revolving door of tradespeople and I am officially somewhat tanned after spending so much time in the garden 😅

I feel like I just haven't stopped this week and today won't be any different as my schedule is completely jam packed... and somehow I have to fit baking a cake in that too!

But let me catch you up on our week! >>

So, a few days after we moved into our house, I baked a quiche and found that our oven temperature was way, way off.

I opened the oven door and it felt like opening the door to hell. What was supposed to be 180C/355F almost singed my eyebrows off as heat blasted from the oven and within seconds, the baking paper surrounding the quiche was burnt too. 

I knew it wasn't 180C, so the next day I went off to buy an oven thermometer and my suspicions were confirmed.... 180C was actually 240C.... and whilst the dial goes much much higher, I haven't even been game to try 😅

So what do you do when your oven thermostat has a mind of it's own? You experiment.

With a bag of Gloriously Free Uncontaminated Oats in the pantry and a big block of chocolate, I decided I wanted to make a no bake slice... and ohhhh am I glad I did.

I have been pretty slack on the blogging front lately as we have been so busy with things at the house, but we're both back at work and life is pretty much back to normal - so I am back on a normal blogging schedule too!

Since I've been so slack, I've got lots to catch you up on!

Here's what's been happening recently! >>
