It has yet again been a while since posting....but blogger has changed the way things work so I have been struggling to work out how to do posts on the new format....and you know how some things are just too hard to persevere with at times....any how....here are a few photos of things I have been doing of late....
Last week was my Birthday and being born on Anzac Day, I decided to make some Anzac biscuits.....
The lovely Lisa that I work with delivered this gorgeous box of treats to my door.....
As you would also know, I had a lovely holiday in Europe last year and from my time spent in Italy, I was really keen to have an Italian Inspired dinner Party....well, last Saturday night, my idea finally came to fruition and I cooked up an absolute storm....on the menu was:
Antipasto Platter with handmade "Lumacelle" a delightfully yummy savoury bread I tasted whilst in Orvieto
Wild Boar Ragu with Chestnut Polenta (I also tasted wild boar in Italy...it is so very delicious)
For dessert I made Vanilla and Honey Pannacotta with poached quinces
To have with coffee, I made Canolli filled with Ricotta and Mascarpone cheese with Grand Marnier, some Biscotti called Tozzetti and bought some Italian Nougat.
Sadly I forgot to take photos of much of the meal, however I did manage a few photos.....
The invitation......
the Antipasto Platter.....
Leftover cannoli........
