Taste magazines my friend Heather gave me a subscription for this nearly 6 years ago. I really enjoy the photography and some of the stories about the Chef in these magazines.

Some of my cooking books, in the Jamie Oliver book I love his fresh Pasta recipe because its easy to make ,you make it by hand and in the food processor. The top cookbook has the most amazing Jumbo cookie recipe I love it because you can put whatever extra ingredients into them I really like adding roasted and salted Macadamia and White chocolate or Dark chocolate and crystalised ginger.

My Malouf cook book was given to me by an ex of my Brother Rex who happens to be a Chef I love the beautiful illustrations in this book and the fact that it is a collaboration of husband and wife.

A very stained page as it's one of the easiest Risotto recipes I've come across. This cook book is from the Australian winner of Master Chef 2009 - Julie Goodwin. The name of this cookbook is called Our family Table. I like that this book has blank pages at the back so you can add your own recipes.

I've been cooking in my own kitchen for over 25 years one of my first purchases was an Edmonds cookbook but this is my second copy as the first one lost it's cover and some of the cover pages I've put it away so it doesn't lose anymore.

Lens - Experimentation

Today in class , with SDelius our task was to make 4 paper aeroplanes. Our first plane was front heavy so didn't fly at all. The second and third design were sleek in design and both flew well and far. The fourth design which was obtained from the internet also flew well.

Todays task was to clean up an existing text by using the clone tool then added my phrase and changing the size, place and perspective.

This task took me all lesson to create. I am not a computer whizz so ... just quietly I'm kinda proud of what I GOT and I do appreciate the help from Amy and Heni-ana. My hope is by the end of 8 weeks I can progress from this if not I can make it look better?
