Australia Day Pavlova, a first for us.
Littlest one came home from school Friday with a fist full of recipes for us to try: Lamingtons, damper, pavlova...
One thing to note is that "corn flour" is corn starch--not corn meal (ew! in meringue?).
Her class is researching Australia for their International Fair next week. Each grade has its own country it represents. And the kids get a passport and have it stamped at each "country".
Cute!
On another Australian note,--boomerangs, bush tucker, platypus and Holden cars...sorry, lots of trivia still floating around the noggin.
I'll try that again: on another note, I have finally received some hand printed textiles from that ace designer, Shannon Lamden, a.k.a. Aunty Cookie and I'm getting them into the shop slowly but surely. I ordered them way back in October. First they had to be, well, made, I suppose, as each order is unique. Then they had to be shipped. Seamail, which sounds like a great adventure. But they're here! They're here!

do you not have pavlova over there? REALLY? Well, that's just wrong.
ReplyDeleteYes, corn meal would be quite wrong. Nasty.
I love those AUnty Cookie prints. *sigh* I suppose I will have to get some when my allowance gets paid in (it's crap being a kept woman)
I am TOTALLY a fabric snob too. I haven't made it to Aunty Cookie yet as I just can't justify the expense!
