Cooking cuteness


I had to treat myself the other day to this super cute apron by Austalian company Mozi.
This one is called "Mon Coeur" and has a pretty folk-inspired print. I had been avoiding purchasing it for an age, but a girl can only hold off for so long :)


Some close-ups. How cheery!


I might break it in this weekend when I become chef extraordinare and cook Lyn (who is coming home from a stint of work on the mainland) a Chocolate Pavlova with Salted Butterscoth Sauce. It was in the January Real Living magazine. Yum!
I got very excited at the supermarket yesterday buying ingredients and decided to treat myself to REAL vanilla extract. None of that crappy vanilla essence for this choccy pav. Who'd have thought $6.50 could make me so happy :)


It's a bad piccy, but trust me, it looks very naughty and therefore yummy.
I'll let you know how it goes :)

  2. It's a lovely design, happy and I like the colours. Something MMMC would love I'm sure. The chocolate pav with salted butterscotch sauce has my taste buds in a frenzy. Delicioso!

  4. Your new apron is lovely - I really like the folk-style print. The recipe sounds yummy, it caught my eye when I was flicking through Real Living. Vanilla extract is definitely a nicer vanilla taste, we used it on our cupcake making day and I loved the little dots of vanilla beans you could see in the icing.

  10. Good Lord! I almost choked when I saw that apron! It's gobsmackingly gorgeous!

    I went back and read your post after I saw that piece of cotton wonderfulness is only $45! That's one-and-a-half piano lessons for a nine-year-old! I know what's a better investment! And it's nice enough to wear to school pickup.

  15. Nice apron!
    I've been checking one out myself in a shop, and I agree, a girl can only hold out for so long.
    Hope you show us the picture of the treat you made.
