Baking| Perfect Pumpkin Pie … and simple too {#getsmart}
This is a pie right for fall. The filling … silky, smooth and spicy! The crust just right, not too crisp, yet offers a handsome bite, gently teasing the palette with beautiful pistachio flavours and a pleasing texture. {..with roasted pumpkin puree from scratch}

Baking| STOLLEN PUDDING … a Daring Bakers Stollen in Bread Pudding
I stole the Stollen we made for Christmas with the Daring Bakers and baked it into a STOLLEN/BREAD PUDDING! Mmmm...just the perfect dessert for a cold wintry day, good to the last crust. Dried tart cherries, slivered almonds and a sifting of sugar dressed it up! Merry Christmas!

Baking | Toasted Walnut Linzer Cookies with Strawberry Filling … Holiday Baking Fun!
You must try these cookies! December is whirring by, now unstoppable. Twitter is 'atweet' with who’s baking what, food blogs are bursting with fabulous holiday baking ideas. I wish I had most of December left as there are so many delicious ideas, but I’m GLAD I made these cookies! They were l♥ved by the kids, prized apart, jam duly licked off, sugar too, and then the cookies enjoyed … gobbled up in seconds. I think the basic cookie is a great one too sans the jam filling, quite like a nutty crisp shortbread on its own.
