Reunion


One excited sister here! My brother, who has been living & travelling overseas for more than two years, landed on home soil today!

My kids waited patiently at the airport (and yes B's shorts are on backwards. He dressed himself so I wasn't going to correct this minor issue!).

take a sneak peek in the biscuit tin



This week we made cornflake biscuits from the good ol' Women's Weekly Beautiful Biscuits Cookbook. They were fun to make. B enjoyed rolling the mixture around in the crunchy cornflakes! (There wasn't quite so enthusiasm with the sweeping up!)

Smooth


Frozen berries, 2 frozen bananas, 1 frozen mango, a spoonful of honey, a large spoonful of yoghurt, a scoop of vanilla ice-cream & topped up with milk. Mmmm... yum!

more cherry reds





Thank you to our wonderful neighbours for the gift of a bag full of cherry tomatoes this week! Unlike the supermarket variety they actually smell like tomatoes!!

Last night I added them to some flathead I was baking. They turn out so sweet and caramelised in the oven.

Tomorrow night I am planning our (almost weekly ritual) pizza night and am envisaging cherry tomatoes, fresh basil and bocconcini. Who needs lollies!
