Cooking Adventure 7: Hedgehog Slices

From a box, can't really go wrong with that. However the frosting wasn't awesome - kind of melted a little if kept out of the fridge. Other than that, they were good.

Cooking Adventure 6: Risotto

First thing I've made for dinner. Quite exciting! Risotto with chicken, mushroom, zucchini and sun dried tomatoes. First time I've ever used chicken stock, wine, leek and oregano haha. I think the leek was the worst - I had no idea how to cook it ROFL. Turned out pretty well in the end. Maybe I should have waited until more of the liquid evaporated, but it looked and tasted ok, so no drama :D
