Well, I'd love to say that this is my garden at sunset today but.... I'd be lying! It is my garden but just not today...~
This is my garden... bare from winter and newly weeded...~
Before I started weeding, you couldn't see any dirt! It is a work in progress...~
On the food front - Annette's Olive & Tomato Scone Loaf - as very good as it looks!~
With all this cold weather we have been enduring, I had a hankering for crumbed chops so I looked up Annette's book and found her recipe. Dip in egg white and milk then crumb with fine crumbs and oven bake. Very satisfying...~
Another of Annette's recipes - Rippa Rissoles - these have beef mince (I have used chicken mince also), brown rice, zucchini and carrot in them. Great for hiding veggies from kids! We had them with oven baked potato wedges and delicious sweet corn.~
Friday night it was chicken & bean tacos - so easy and much nicer than fatty take-away!~
And a very naughty dessert - Brianna made mini pavlovas for Father's Day last Sunday - served with whipped cream (um, not low fat) and berries. She knows how to get them so they are real crispy on the outside with a chewy marshmallow centre. Bliss!~
And finally, our family portrait from Brianna's Debutante Ball. We scrub up alright, don't we?~
Been in a bit of a blogging funk of late. Life has revolved around work, drying laundry in this crap weather we have been having, cooking dinner then falling into bed. Not much else to report at this stage. Oh, hang on - did I mention we are going to London, Paris & Rome soon??
~
Cheers - Joolz
