AUSTRALIA DAY

I hope that everyone had a great Australia day. How lucky are we? On the Sunshine Coast the weather was true to its name....clear blue skies and a sweltering 33 degrees.


The fish were 'on' and my handsome husband caught us a sweetlip off the beach here at Peregian.


I made a delicious passion fruit Pavlova and 2 traditional meat pies to eat with mash and mushy peas, could you get any more Aussie that that??


Pavlova Recipe


4 eggs

1 cup sugar

1/2 tablespoon cornflour

1 teaspoon lime juice


1. Lightly dampen greaseproof paper and cut to size of plate

2. beat egg whites till stiff and frothy

3. Gradually add sugar

4. Fold in flour and lime juice

5. Spread into Pavlova shape on prepared plate

6. Bake in oven slow, 150 degrees for 2 hours

7. When cool top with cream and fruit
Back to the shop tomorrow, i must show you the most divine Vintage kiddies cozzies made by local Nola Wilson, so so cute.

Until then,
