In My Kitchen - April

I honestly didn't think I would get to do an In My Kitchen for April as my world at the moment is focused on Chow Down to Eurovision 2014, but with 37 countries and 37 dishes what's another post??.......Coffee??

In My Kitchen.....
....is a rosette tool.

I first saw these when I was researching Sweden for last year's Chow Down to Eurovision but didn't have enough time to order them.

The biscuit is very light and crisp (recipe here) and as I was writing the post for this year thought it would be great with a crushed peppermint lollies and icing sugar to give the illusion on a cold snowflake.

In My Kitchen....

.....is Cinderella's lift to the ball.

This year with the pumpkins, it has been size over quantity. There are another 2 progressing well in the back yard but I won't be drying them on top of the shed as I did last year as they became a possum buffet!!

 

 

In My Kitchen.....
.....is a cookie jar I bought with the indention of having on my desk at work in the spirit of community sharing.
It hasn't made it there yet...but I have taken them some breads and cakes.

 

 A selection of French patisserie for Harmony Day, Chocolate branches/fingers, vanilla bean macarons, and rose and pistachio fondant fancies.

In My Kitchen....
....is some Melbourne roof top honey seeds I bought that should be in my garden by now! I just adore the packages, so clever!

 

 

In My Kitchen.....

.....is not a sad and desperate plea but just a polite public notification that the people's choice round of Best Australian blogs 2014 is open and you are able to submit votes for Don't Boil The Sauce.

 

The voting system isn't exactly user friendly but its alphabetical so I'm on the first page, and if viewing on a mobile you need to scroll to the bottom of the page. (AB is Television.AU if you are really keen)

At this stage I don't believe you need to journey into the enchanted forest to collect Unicorn tear drops......but I'll keep you posted.

Thank you so much if you do click the link and accept this quest.
