A couple of bags recentlyfinished ... the spotty one is a reverse of the floral one ... both in pretty colours, quite a change from the usual darker colours, quite suits our new life on the coast.
At the moment reading Susan Duncan "The House", all about living in the house that Dorothea Mckellar lived in. The others recently finished while laying around not being able to do too much.
Also at present trying to do assignment - choosing 7 entrees, mains & desserts.
1. Cajun Style Salmon with Salsaa Fresco and Fried Parsnips
2. Thai Chicken Curry
3. Turkey & Kangaroo Pie in Mulled Wine Sauce with Vegetable Panache
4. Crumbed Veal Escalopes with Marsala Sauce served with Turned Vegetables & Bean Bundles
5. Braised Lamb Shanks with Paysanne of Vegetables
6. Fillet Steak with Green Peppercorn Sauce ....
7. Risotto with Grilled Mushrooms. Thinking out loud here, have to work on the steak and accompaniments, probably Potato Roesti/chips/ and some sort of salad. Back to the books then ... and my six weeks isn't even up yet!!!

Those menus made my mouth water. In answer to Nicki Pellegrino (sorry i think i spelt her name wrong b4) she has 2 books The Gypsy Tearoom and Delicious - i see you love Monica McInnerney (me too) so i think you will love them.

Hi Queen - thanks for visiting my blog and leaving a comment. I love the bags. Very pretty! :)
Can I come over for dinner? Those menus look amazing! I am not a good cook!!! My hat goes off to you!
Monica McInerney is a South Australian gal & I have been meaning to read her work for ages. Seeing her books on your blog has really galvanised me into action - heading to the Bookshop this arvo!
