These links were just sitting there, some I had collected, some were sent to me and I was ’saving’.
Haloumi and Chorizo sandwiches YUM.
Is it okay to call God ‘Mother’?

Tipnut is a site that I keep saving links from, so I thought I would put them all in one spot:

I am addicted to my laptop and the internet.

Soup:
Nettle Soup
I don’t know if nettles grow here, but if they do I want to put them in a soup!
Random soup with avocado on top
I do need to expand my soup-making repertoire, and this would be a yummy addition.
Pumpkin Soup with Coriander Pesto
A bit of a twist on the old Pumpkin recipe.
Pasta:
Chicken and Artichoke Pasta
I love a nice simple pasta, and this seems to fit into that category.
Chorizo Pasta
I actually did cook this, but I replaced the wild garlic and welsh onion with regular garlic and onion, because that is what I had. Irregardless it turned out pretty good. I reckon if you stick to the recipe you would end up with something more posh than what I had though.

Zucchini Fritters
Because I know I will make zucchini fritters at some stage, and this looks like a nice base recipe.
Chickpea, Chorizo and Spinach Dish
This seems like a good grown-up dish to cook.
Sweet Potato and Salmon Quiche
Quiches are great, but I don’t know that I’ve ever really cooked one myself.
Couscous with seven vegetables
We saw this on SBS and it looked divine!

Naan Bread
I did actually try this once, but I didn’t follow the instructions very well, so what I ended up with kinda sucked. I would like to give it another go.
Grilled bread
Bread you can eat straight away? Yes please!
Zucchini Bread
I just love all things Zucchini and all things bread so how could it go wrong?
Bagels
No longer do I have to restrict my bagel-eating to when I am in the States!
Before baking, or when stuck, a list of vintage tips never goes astray.

Malaysian Honeycomb Cake
It is a possibility that I will make this, I also need to make a cake to put in my awesome cake tin, otherwise there is no point in having a cake tin.
Strawberries and Vodka
What more can a girl ask for? Totally time consuming, but one day when I live somewhere where I can keep alcohol…
Buckwheat and Buttermilk Pancakes
Both of which I really want to make.

Rose Petal Jam
I love roses, jam, and making jam, so what could possibly go wrong?
Dandelion Syrup
Who cares if you have weeds when you can turn them into something awesome?? Does that mean they aren’t weeds anymore?
Crackers
I need some crackers, maybe I should make some 
More Crackers
It’s good to have a range of recipes of the one thing.
Hummus
To eat with the crackers, plus this recipe looks supereasy.

Chocolate
I don’t know whether I would actually make it myself. But I really would like to, just to say I can.
Yoghurt
I love the idea of making one’s own yoghurt – plus it would be a good skill to have.
Vinegar
As vinegar can be used in both cooking and cleaning I reckon it is a fairly essential skill to have.
Pasta
To go with all those pasta dishes. This is definitely a skill I want to have, I was a little put off by the pasta-making experiences I had in primary school. It always seemed so impossible. But many things that seemed impossible to me as a child I find are easy as an adult. So I guess I’ll give it a go.
Butter
Oh man, making your own butter is awesome. But you have to get the cream from somewhere… oh well, we will work on that later.
