Stuff-n-Things Saturday – Sweet, Salty and Inspired

June 9, 2012 By JJ 1 Comment

It’s been a while since I did a ‘Things and stuff and more things‘ wrap up round these parts. As a result some of this stuff has been floating round the interwebz for a while but hopefully you’ll enjoy!

Sweet:

  • We’ve announced our June theme for the Sweet Adventures Blog Hop and it’s one of my most favourite of things – Pie! KC from Capers of the Kitchen Crusader is our hostess, head over to her post to find out more, I hope you can join us.I already know what I’m making, but what’s your favourite pie?

Salty:

  • 10 Salts to Know: The ladies at Food 52 have done a lovely summary of many common [and not so common] salts on the market currently. I’ve got Iodized Table Salt [only really used for soaking cuts and cleaning cutting boards these days] Pink South Australian Sea Salt Flakes [goes in most things], Fleur de Sel [for finishing], Kosher Salt [for baking], Smoked Salt [just because] and in the back of the cupboard some Rock Salt [for roasting].What kind of salt is your go-to for cooking?

Inspired:

  • Adore Magazine: ‘Australia’s first online only home and lifestyle magazine available exclusively online‘ I came across this site the other day. Swoon. I could get lost for hours.
  • Shay Aaron Mini Meals: When I was younger I used to make mini things from clay – everything from teapots to shoes. This guy takes it to another level – amazing!
  • Hungover Owls: Quick insight – I think this is one of the funniest sites I’ve ever seen. It’s been around for ages and whenever I need a good laugh, one or two of these creatures works a treat!

Currently Testing:

  • Overly excited by the success of my Macha Green Tea Cupcakes, I’ve been occasionally baking Steamed Chocolate Cupcakes – divine but not quite there. Darn, have to keep testing – nudge nudge wink wink.

Currently Reading:

  • The magazine pile is growing and a brilliant new cookbook has shown up.
  • Not to mention a long overdue giveaway in the works…Do you have any must-reads I should add to my list?

 

Thanks for stopping by and have a lovely weekend!

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!
