When life gives you lemons…April SABH!

April 5, 2012 By JJ 3 Comments

Did you know there are two kinds of people in this world? Yep, those that like lemon flavoured things and those that like cherry flavoured things. Now I’m not talking about the fresh version of these fruits, but stuff like jellies, drinks and hard candies. Just think about it for a moment – you know I’m right.

With that in mind, we’re at it again… and the Sweet Adventures Blog Hop theme for April is Lemons!

When life gives you Lemons!

Now even though I don’t eat the sugary bits anymore I am without a doubt a lemon-fan all the way – always have been. It used to be that in the absence of lemon in a packet of gummies [or to erase the horrible injustice of eating a yellow one only to find pineapple, or worse banana] I’d go for lime and orange – and even grape – before I ever got near any red ones. Now I just drink lemon in warm water each morning, can’t start my day without it…

Sweet Adventures Blog Hop - Lemons

So needless to say I am on-board with this month’s adventure. The key ingredient being sour does of course amplify the usual challenge of how to make a dessert without copious amounts of sugar but that’s what I’m here for!

This month’s Hostess is Jennifer from Delicieux, head on over to her site for more details about the hop. As for the basics:

#SABH will open at Delicieux for posts and link-up 9am Monday 16 April 2012 – Australian Eastern Standard Time [AEST: Sydney]. You can link up at any time during this week but remember, only new posts which go live after Monday 16 April 2012 can be linked up.

SABH is brought to you by your hostesses – Delicieux, 84th & 3rd, The Hungry Australian, Dining With a Stud, and The Capers of the Kitchen Crusader – can you believe this is our 6th hop?!

Hope you can join us, and if you’re a cherry person, I might be able to look past it – this once – ha!

    The lemons on our lemon tree are finally turning yellow – I’m excited I’ll finally get to cook with them and for such a a fun event. Looking forward to it, JJ!

That’s it. That’s the post.
Apparently today is National Strawberry Day, it’ Apparently today is National Strawberry Day, it’s overcast and raining in LA (so a plate of sunshine is absolutely necessary), and if you’ve been here for more than a hot second you know how I feel about toast.
🍞🍓🥒🌱
Toasted sourdough, goat chèvre (or vegan cream cheese), sliced strawberries, cucumber ribbons, fresh mint, olive oil, black pepper, just a pinch of salt. Go forth and feast.

I took this video on Jan 1. I even wrote a caption I took this video on Jan 1. I even wrote a caption and everything. And I intended to post it that day as a reflection moving into a new year. But instead, mom and I went out for pizza and wine, and then it was Jan 2, and so on and so on. 
🌀
So instead you’re getting it on Feb 1. A new day and another new month (but what is a new month or a new year, other than a societal convention really). 
☀️
Because, each day, each sunrise, we have the opportunity to start anew - no matter how big or little that start may be. A chance to take another step forward - no matter how many steps back you feel you’re fighting against. 
🌀
Whether this past year brought blinding joy or paralysing grief (and in whatever measure of balance or imbalance), I hope each new day sees the landscape of your life look one step closer to what you imagine it to be. And that when the waves roll in and change that landscape, you can roll with it and see the beauty and possibility on the other side.
🌊
If you’ve made it this far, congratulations, have a cookie 🍪 And I’ll leave you with the rolling waves and blue sky of a California beach in January. I truly hope this year sees us all grow stronger and move forward with each new day. Going backwards is simply not an option.

…
When the middle little insisted on buying quail eggs over Christmas, but due to allll the other food we never cooked them, I simply couldn’t let the little guys go to waste. 
🥚
Could I have made one dish? Of course. Did I instead prepare quail eggs four ways, bake mini loaves of brioche, make mini waffles, dig through the prop closet for the smallest dishes, and set up an entire table? Of course I did. 
💥
Swipe to the end for reference on the size of the eggs and loaf.

My go-to pizza topping combo 🍕 Made on that dou My go-to pizza topping combo 🍕 Made on that dough from a couple weeks ago and voiced by the middle little (who is about as different from her younger sister as you can get!) 💥.
🍕
Sometimes this combo gets prawns too 🍤. Most of the time I don’t bother mixing the ingredients in a bowl and just layer them on top. The cheese is a hard goat cheese (because I can’t do 🐄). The ‘spices’ 🌱 is Sicilian oregano. The measurements are random at best - a handful of this, a splash of that. 
🍕
If you have a fave veggie or seafood pizza combo I’d love to hear it. Because as Ms.S says, voila, yummy yummy pizza!
Flowers for your Friday, that is all.

Look at me, coming at’cha with a double whammy o Look at me, coming at’cha with a double whammy of my go-to Half-Spelt, Sourdough Discard Pizza Dough recipe 🍕 (the one I’ve been teasing for years), AND a new voiceover by little Ms Marmalade herself 👧🏼.
☀️ I mean, I’m not saying the sound on this video will brighten up your day by an infinite amount, but I’m not, not, saying that either ✨. 
—-
The full recipe with all the info is over on my site (⛓ in profile and all that jazz), along with a longer version of the video. Because a 5yo singing - SINGING - about rolling dough into balls is ah-mazing.

Ingredients, for those wondering:
* whole spelt flour
* white 00 pizza flour
* water
* sourdough starter discard
* active dry yeast
* kosher salt
* millet flour (for shaping)
⏲ All the times and weights are in that aforementioned post - plus opts to bake right away vs letting it all ferment for a day or two... There’s also a list of equipment I use, and my personal flour and pizza oven faves. Now go have a pizza party! 🍕🎉
Well hello there! ‘Tis the season and all means Well hello there! ‘Tis the season and all means it’s about time I (finally) shared this 🍗 🍇🍊 image from a test shoot collab well over a year ago 🙈. I actually made these Cornish Hens for Christmas last year too and they’ll be on the menu again this year. It’s a perfect holiday feast solution for a small group with only a few meat eaters, but also if you simply can’t be bothered to tackle a turkey!

There seems to be a common thread this year of people asking in stories if it’s ok to start decorating for 🎄 already - my answer, every time, is ‘the world is on fire, time has no meaning, go for your life’. Am I wrong? (I’m not, haha) I may even put up a tree here more than 3 days before (I do keep it up until Easter though, so who knows 😜). Are you getting festive already or do you have hard and fast rules about these things?
