June? No! Hey, it's my birthday month! How the heck did that happen? And what a month it will be - medical stuff, hubby stuff, going away for my birthday for a bit stuff, getting my licence renewed stuff, and the stuff goes on. But that's good, isn't it?
Hubby has almost finished his radiation treatments, so hopefully that will be it for the while. You know, it amazes me that you have to pay for parking at the hospital, tho' the radiation is free, so there's that. And what is it with hospital parking? You need to sell off a kidney to pay for it. Anyways, enough whingeing from me! Let's get to it:=)

| those matcha Pocky and the tiramisu mochi - so good! |
In My Kitchen:
 |
| you know I can't resist a wee fishy dish :) |
 |
| and another memoir-type book with cooking |
 |
| I made a quadruple chocolate on chocolate loaf! |
 |
| gorgeous! Fab Nigella L. recipe |
 |
| a recycled platter from Banish using plastic bread tags - so clever! |
Sorry, I know it's hard to make out, due to the tablecloth being nearly the same colours!
 |
yep, another tea towel (merch supports the fight)
|
I am a supporter of a protest group who are trying to stop (but clearly in vain, very sadly) the building of a huge stadium for the Brisbane Olympics in 2032. Never mind that Victoria Park was heritage-listed, and an important indigenous site, and it will cost us billions of dollars to build ... I am so furious!
 |
| I stewed up some apples and strawberries |
 |
| and turned them into muffins |
 |
| a huge salad bowl from Banish, also made with bread tags |
This is a really deep bowl! You can get a massive salad in this baby.
 |
| this green glass salt pig is so gorgeous! |
 |
| I pickled some beetroot and French shallots |
 |
| so delicious! |
These are so good. The recipe is from the Roving Haggis, a fabulous Scottish cook. I am going to keep making her version from now on. She was actually here in Australia recently, at a Celtic festival. Wish I had known earlier :=(
 |
| and I made pineapple muffins |
 |
| the curveball - carved from King Billy Pine, by Carol Russell |
