Christmas Spice Cookies
Tumblr media
These Christmas Spice Cookies are my new favourite cookie (replacing these peanut butter ones that have been on constant rotation). They’re a tasty twist on traditional Christmas flavours in a soft, gingerbread like cookie. And, for an added bonus, you can make a minor tweak to the recipe and make them gingerbread cookies.
Is it wrong that we’ve made these every 2nd day in December?!? If it…

Christmas Spice Cake
Tumblr media
We went to see Santa, again, today. It was our 3rd trip this December so far and I think there may have even seen a (bribed) smile from 7yo S.
Tumblr media
This photo was not from today. This photo was from 3 days ago when I refused to stay another hour at a community Christmas event to not win a raffle. 7yo S had decided that he wanted to win a toy SES platypus that was being drawn at 8:30. It was 7pm at…

Gingerbread Lemon Meringue Pie
Gingerbread Lemon Meringue Pie
Tumblr media
Ahh Christmas.
Just as you’re getting through the Spring Hay fever season your senses are hit with another attack; this time in the form of Michael Buble and excessive amounts of reindeer cheer. I do love Christmas but with each year the festive season seems to be starting earlier and earlier which can lead to Santa fatigue and a tinsel blow out.
But now it’s December and there’s no holding…

Pinky Pie Cake
Tumblr media
Hey, remember me?!🤣
I’ve been a bit quiet on Mummy Made.It and social media lately. There’s been a lot happening and, to be honest, I’ve been exhausted. The thought of editing photos and writing recipes has forced me into a Netflix coma; my brain and body have done what they’ve had to do and no more.
Tumblr media
7 weeks ago at my 100km goal race I broke a bone in my foot. I can’t tell you when or…

Sprinkle Cookies
Tumblr media
Pro Tip: if you want to feel old watch the reunion episodes of your favourite old shows and sit there for the next hour judging how old everyone looks now…and then realise that you too have aged that much!!
Case in point; Season 4 of the awesome Veronica Mars. Season 3 ended abruptly back in 2008 but since then there has been a crowd funded moviein 2014 and now a finale season in 2019. Whilst…

Gluten Free Peanut Butter Cake
Gluten Free Peanut Butter Cake
Tumblr media
Enough already Lisa. (Don’t worry I’m just talking to myself for a bit).
Surely people are over the whole sweet potato and peanut butter combination by now?
But it tastes so good (also me but the good one).
Tumblr media
Remember this ice cream from last summer or this slice that we had to hide before the kids ate it all. Can’t we do just one more
Ok. But this has to be the last one.
Of course…

Chocolate Pavlova Cake
Tumblr media
This Chocolate Pavlova Cake is not a chocolate pavlova that looks like a cake. It’s a chocolate cake with a pavlova baked on top. The name is a bit confusing. Sorry, but I do promise you that it’s very tasty.
Tumblr media
When we ate this cake the kids and I played a little prank on my husband. He hates eggplant (although will eat it in my fav casserole; pretty sure it’s a mind over matter dislike) so we…

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies
Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies
Tumblr media
I am a broken record. My voice, lost in the wind. My words must simply sound like white noise Amongst the playing and screaming I hear.
I am a tired record. My requests, playing on repeat. But it’s not just my voice that they’re ignoring, It’s me that they fail to see.
I am a mother record. My heart, full of love. Each day full of much joy and endless frustration As we navigate this…

Mint Slice Brownie
Tumblr media
This Mint Slice Brownie is the dinner you can eat when all you want to eat is Chocolate, like when you have your period or when you’ve found yourself on the ‘attack’ all day chasing down and negotiating with little passive aggressive terrorists, but feel guilty for not having any veggies.
This Mint Slice Brownie is made with 2 vegetables; Sweet Potato in the moist and dense Brownie and…

Peanut Butter and Jelly Layer Cake
Peanut Butter and Jelly Layer Cake
Tumblr media
We had to buy a new vacuum cleaner today.
It wasn’t because we wanted to, but more out of not wanting to live in a knee high sea of dog hair, leaves and My Little Pony stickers.
Our many efforts to prolong our Vacuums life, including duct tape and shonky parts bought online, had finally proved not enough. After 12 ½ years of loyal service it was time to move on.
Tumblr media
As romantic as it sounds…

Chocolate Avocado Cookies
Tumblr media
Are you a Liz Lemon or a Leslie Knope?
At first glance it appears to be a simple choice; are you an accident prone goof ball or an A type over achiever, but look closer and maybe Liz and Leslie have more in common than it first appears.
Liz Lemon is the dag in all us; she owns a blanket with arms, she eats her feelings and wore a Princess Leia outfit as a wedding dress
Leslie Knope is…

Chocolate Cake with Jam and Cream
Chocolate Cake with Jam and Cream
Tumblr media
It’s Mother’s Day this Sunday.
Bring on the homemade cards, beaded bracelets and crepe paper flowers sprayed in Chanel No. 5.
Bring on the kid made pancakes, the messy kitchen and the mum choice of Sunday night movie (that they will inevitably whinge about having to watch but secretly love).

I’m not a fan of #blessed and I tried to keep a gratitude journal once (it lasted 3 days) but…

Peanut Butter Donuts
Tumblr media
Last night I had a moment of pure bliss.
3 1/2 minutes of forgetting about the laundry, not worrying about the kids, not being stuck in my own head or worrying about what anyone else thought.
3 1/2 minutes of being in and enjoying a moment, letting my inhibitions go and loving life like a carefree wild child.
Tumblr media
And it was all thanks for Bob Jovi, a tight dress and a drunk cousin and her…

ANZAC Brownie Slice
Tumblr media
Consider this a group text message.
Not one of the annoying ones that are the modern day equivalent of a chain letter but one of those that people send in a group SMS because they’re too lazy busy to send individual messages.
This is my group SMS to readers of Mummy Made.It
I’m sorry.
Tumblr media
I was alerted today to an issue with the website. It appears that most of the comments, questions…

Easter Cookies
Tumblr media
Our families Easter tradition occurs on Good Friday. We drive 90 minutes to a Trout Farm and go fishing for our Good Friday dinner.
Tumblr media
We are not fishing people, and it’s something we only do once a year (thank goodness…it’s like pulling teeth for me!), but somehow it has become a yearly tradition that’s followed by chips in the park. Last year we caught 6 in 30 minutes, the year before 7 in 1…

Hot Cross Brownies
Tumblr media
So….who else is suffering from a school holiday induced mental breakdown?
Tumblr media
I normally love school holidays. There’s no rushing in the mornings, no lunch boxes to pack and snacks to make. I get to spend more time with the kids, they get to play more with each other and it’s a fun, non-eventful fortnight.
Except this last week has been crap.
The kids have decided that these holidays…

Hot Cross Bun Donuts
Hot Cross Bun Donuts
Tumblr media
These Hot Cross Bun Donuts are a cheats version for getting your hot cross bun fix. There’s no rising, no yeast, no kneading. No hassles; just Donuts!
Tumblr media
Firstly let me proudly admit that I love hot cross buns and will unashamedly eat all of them (and I really do mean all of them) if given half a chance ie the kids are at school and I’m wearing my stretchy pants, but it’s a one sided love affair.…
