It's a glorious day today and it's actually warm enough to have lunch in the park for the first time this year. In the interests of saving a few pennies I'm trying to pack my own lunch most days, rather than paying City prices for food. Hopefully it'll be healthier too. Today's lunch is the result of my first baking spree in May Cottage - chicken, bacon and dill pie made from leftover bit and bobs. There's something very conforting about creamy sauce and soft, crumbly pastry.
Before I started baking I totally forgot that I didn't have a rolling pin but it turns out glass jars work pretty well for small amounts of pastry. And I finally got to use the cute little individual pie tins I bought about a year ago and put away for far too long, as they arrived in my kitchen in a carrier bag with my other baking tins.
