Sensational September

Have you looked at the calendar recently?  My oh my - October has arrived! Which means, its time for another monthly recap.

The Mystery Box also provided for some much needed dinner inspiration this month, with another 7 ingredients being drawn …

(Apricot, garlic, mustard, celery, bok choy, cardamom and orange). You can check out what I cooked with each ingredient following the links on the Mystery Box page!

Adventures aside, September also saw a big increase in training, owing to my 'possible' decision to sign up for a Half Ironman. I biked 269km, ran 70km and swam 10km - which I think is more than a trip from Canberra to Albury. The scary thing is that my program is about to increase even more so there should be some big numbers to report next month!

Here's to an 'Outstanding October'!

What about you? What was sensational about your September?

Happy Baking :)
