Christmas in Sydney 2018.

Making the Christmas Cake 2018.

I use this recipe.

Hot and Muggy.

It was hot and muggy last Saturday and a big storm was predicted, so we thought that we should go out for lunch, near the water.  When near the water, I always have seafood.  It was fabulous here at Brooklyn. 

Travelling to Central Australia.

We were in awe.  What a spiritual place.  Not too hot yet.  Just.

The Lake.

 The lake in the morning.

The lake at midday.

Citrus.

From a tree we did not even know we had.  The best bounty so far.

The Beach and the Bush.

Last Sunday Morning.

Scrolls.

Scrolls.

3 cups Greek plain yogurt
3 cups SR flour

Mix and roll into a ball and the roll out into a rectangle upon a well floured surface.

Paint melted butter on rectangle, sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar and with floured hands, roll up tightly.  Cut into 5cm discs and place right side up, separated in baking dish.  Baste with melted butter.

Bake till brown, perhaps cover with baking paper towards the end.

Allow to cool and then spread icing made from icing mixture, vanilla and warm water. 

Can be made savoury by filling with tomato paste, herbs and cheese or vegemite or cheese etc.

Cruising.

The family with The Grandparents, enjoyed a lovely 8 day cruise to Noumea and Vanuatu.
