The weather outside is miserable. My cake baking hankerings are at fever pitch. But there is one particular recipe I am keen to try, and wouldn't you know it, I'm an ingredient short. I could don my rubber boots, a warm coat, and venture to the shops, but I'm a resident of Sydney, and everybody knows that Sydney-siders can't function in the rain. Why? I'm not sure. It's just an accepted truth. You will never encounter another major city coming to near-standstill just because a few drops of water fall from the sky.
As soon as the heavens begin cooperating with my food cravings, I'll be making this
MILK AND CITRUS CAKE. Imen's blog
FARMETTE is one of my absolute favourite food and lifestyle blogs. I cannot wait for her cook book to be available in Australia. It is sure to be filled with extraordinarily stunning food styling and photographs of the Irish countryside. In the meantime if you're hungry (pun) for more of this hearty, farm-kitchen style cookery and exquisite images, follow Imen's blog and
INSTAGRAM feed.
I am also keen to try
THIS just as soon as I can get my hands on some lavender free from nasty pesticides. Again, wishing I could time travel back to my
OLD HOME to savour a
backyard acreage of flowering rows of lavender.
And this heavenly looking
LILAC PAVLOVA recipe will be attempted just as soon as the summer lilacs start to bloom. G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S!
