(from Monday)

As tomorrow is a public holiday, I took today off work. It was a great chance to keep tackling my to do list, which now looks something like this…

  • Scan and print photos for Mr BBB's party
  • Race in Enticer Triathlon
  • 10k run
  • Drinks on Sunday arvo with triathlon club
  • CLEAN the house
  • Prepare the guest room and study for guests
  • Laundry
  • Make dessert for Sunday dinner
  • Organise music for party
  • Pick up Mr BBB's birthday present
  • Finalise and order catering for party
  • So aside from cleaning, and organising the music, it looks like we are all sorted for Saturday!

    Last night it was HOT so I figured that a salad would be a good option.

    I found a recipe for a poached chicken salad, which I ‘vegified’ with the addition of choy sum and carrots,and ‘spiced’ up with the addition of chillies.

    The chicken was poached in light coconut milk,chicken stock, small amount of brown sugar and some lime juice.

    Then shredded and stirred through prepared rice vermicelli noodles, the vegies and a big handful of fresh coriander.

    Simple yet tasty. A good dish to serve on a hot night too!

    Happy baking :)
