'cc' sunday ...

Menu.

Afternoon tea - banana bread (recipe in last post - didnt gave enough sour cream so substituted normal cream - worked just fine! Also didnt have cinamon so used ground anise)

Dinner - 'alio olio-esqe' leftovers pasta (recipe follows)

Dessert - Apple and pear crumble - (based on Jamie Oliver's recipe from last post,but with orange juice, orange peels and anise for the syrup)

Almost made entirely from things around the house and leftovers from other meals! All were yummy and went down a treat!
