Homemade Chutney and recipe link

Today I decided to make some chutney with my carer. I've never been brave enough before but thought why not. I had loads of green tomatoes in the garden and felt quite sad picking them all but at least they got used. It made a lovely distraction from health stuff. I was in hospital this week with dehydration but the doctors still can't help me pain wise. I've begged and begged. Just got to carry on.

Anyway here is the recipe for the chutney if you want to have a go yourself.

Baking day and recipe link

Today I had abit more energy so I thought I would do some baking. Unfortunately I don't eat any of the things I bake because of my gastroparesis and newly diagnosed gastritis so it all goes to my parents.

Here's the Victoria sponge cake I made. The recipe I use is from http://shewhobakes.co.uk/recipes/vanilla-cupcakes/ it's originally for cupcakes but I decided to make one big cake. It turns out really well and so so moist. My family love it. It's now my go to recipe.

Next up was home made bread. Because I don't have much strength in my hands, I use my kenwood mixer with dough hook.I searched everywhere online for a decent recipe and found this one. I just used different flour.

In the photo is also my homegrown veg. I adore watching it grow. Tastes much better than shop brought.

I hope these links are of some use and you make some wonderful cakes
