My goals for the rest of the year

As we are half way through August and I haven't really progressed much with my Day Zero Project I thought I would select certain goals from it that I can achieve or start by the end of the year.

1. Eat veggie for a week
2. Pay off my debts
3. Take a full length photo every week for a year
4. Don't wear black for a week
5. Grow my hair down my back
6. Watch 2 new films
7. Try 1 new cocktail
8. Open a cookbook and cook what ever is on the page
9. Cook 3 new recipes
10. Try 2 new foods

As always I'll keep you updated with how I get on. Do you have your own Day Zero Project? I'd love to hear of any ideas you could give me as I haven't yet got my 101 goals!

Day Zero Project - New recipe: Fruit loaf

One of the goals I set myself on my Day Zero Project was to try 20 new recipes and the first one I've tried is a fruit loaf.



Recipe
337g (12oz) Self raising flour
Pinch of salt
150g (6oz) margarine
150g (6oz) caster sugar
262g (9oz) mixed dried fruit
3 medium eggs
3 x 15ml tablespoon of milk

Heat oven to 180˚c, 350˚F, Gas Mark 4. Grease 2 medium loaf tins or line with greaseproof paper (this is easier)

Mix flour and salt, rub in margarine

Stir in sugar and fruit. Beat together eggs and milk

Mix together to a soft consistency

Place in tin and bake in the middle of the oven for about 50 minutes

And finally....enjoy!
