Hmmmm.... I Fancy Baking...
 

I have a compulsion to bake right now... :confused: some chocolate chip muffins sound real good and so do some sausage rolls.... I have all the stuff I'd need too.... I think I should go bake and fill my appartment with lovely smells... what do you think??? Gotta be better than the cleaning my head has been insisting I do!

mmm we will be over in a few hours...lol a few:rolleyes:

Nesting, Nesting, Nesting.........Go ahead and bake. It'll be good for you.
The night before I had my daughter I decided to wall paper the dining room. The next morning I finished hanging the paper between contractions.....5 hrs later she was born!!!

Okay, see you next week... and if baby comes on time you can be on changing duty! :p

LOL... okay, I've not gone that far and everyone is telling me to stop and rest!!! I have literally a few things left that my head is telling me I need to clean and then I've done... but this afternoon I wanna bake and then my BF will be home and he'll love me lots for baking him goodys... and then I can have a lovely massage!!!! :D :D

Don't just love filling the house with the smells of baking....I get into one of those moods now and then...I put in one of my favorite movies and get to it....

A coupe days ago I made a pumpkin pie, banana coffee cake, brownies and a pot pie....the house smelled wonderful.....get baking girl....;)

Sounds delicious to me.

I vote baking over cleaning any day!! :D

will ya post me a muffin please? I would reach me in just a couple of days...lol:D

How do you make your pot pie? I have wanted to try and make one but dont know how.

This is going to sound strange but I mad Chicken & Dumplings, Chicken & Rice and Home made Chicken Soup all today. Im not pregnant and I hate to cook, But for some strange reason I wanted to cook today. It must be in the air. I dont eat sweets, Just never cared for them. I started with boiling a chicken and just couldnt stop. I still have some Chicken left if you tell me how to make the Pot pie that would just top it all off.:D

Its getting a little chilly here, so thanks to your thread I am going to bake my BF an old comfort food... shepards pie! It was a childhood favorite of mine, hope I can make my momma proud!

I got my Pot Pie recipe from Allrecipes.com. It's called Chicken Pot Pie IX

Ingredients:
1 lb skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cubed
1 cup sliced carrots
1 cup frozen green peas
1/2 cup sliced celery
1/3 cup butter
1/3 cup chopped onion
1/3 cup all purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp celery seed
1 3/4 cups chicken broth
2/3 cup milk
2 (9 Inch) unbaked pie crusts

**I made a few changes/additions: instead of frozen green peas, I used a mixed veggie. I used 1/2 c onion. Also, after I cubed the chicken I put garlic powder and pepper on it.

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F
2. In a saucepan, combine chicken, carrots, peas, and celery. Add water to cover and boil for 15 minutes. Remove from heat, drain, and set aside.
3. In the saucepan over medium heat, cook onions in butter until soft and translucent. Stir in flour, salt, pepper, and celery seed. Slowly stir in chicken broth and milk. Simmer over medium-low heat until thick. Remove from heat and set aside.
5. Put lower crust in pie pan. Brush with egg.
6. Place the chicken mixture in bottom pie crust. Pour hot liquid mixture over. Cover with top crust, seal edges, and cut away excess dough. Brush upper crust with egg. Make several small slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until pastry is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Cool for 10 minutes before serving.


And there is nothing else like warm corn bread with a delicious chicken pot pie.

Ohhhh, I love shepards pie!!!! :D
