Today was an interesting day. We got to experience our first 'Cookathon' which is basically when we all gather together for a full day of cooking at St Patrick's. Each of us cooked a different dish and cooked enough to make a few meals. We cook everything from fresh and then freeze it so that we have some nice dishes for our lunch and dinner over the coming weeks. Means a little less cooking everyday. The meals that we have cooked are cottage pie, fish pie, Thai green chicken curry, tomato and coriander chicken, meatballs, roast veg, and some burgers and garlic bread as well as some cupcakes and rhubarb crumble. Some of us have done some cooking before while as others have only been used to a little cooking for ourselves or not at all! Thankfully Della had kindly organised all our ingredients before we arrived and had our instructions written out on a page for us.
Philip, who lives at St Patrick's, also came along to help us. It was a great day and we had lots of fun and laughs. Everything seems to have went well, except for the first lot of jam tarts which ended up in flames! We shall be nice and not name names but it wasn't us girls!
