@notsmokinjo it is really cheap disgusting wine and I had no lake to face and throw up at that night!

Oh I think we have a similar thing here...Passion Pop..... which when I went to school was called 2 buck chuck....it cost about $3 a bottle and was a sickly sweet passionfruit flavoured sparkling wine.

Just to be clear ..... I was NOT involved in designing or minting the first Canadian coin to feature King Charles image, replacing our traditional Queen Elisabeth image

We really love Masterchef Australia, we've watched 12 seasons and are watching them a second time.  Way better than other versions of the same show.

[notsmokinjo]

@Paul723 my daughter and I watch it together. I've made a few of the dishes too. Please tell me you love Poh and Julie Goodwyn. 

 

Another good Aussie cooking show is My Kitchen Rules.

I'll have to look for My Kitchen Rules.  Of course we love Poh and Julie; I liked how Poh made it on to the show in the first place.  We are currently in season 4.  We watched the seasons in this order (?) - 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 10, 11, 12.  Desserts seem to be much more common for people to eat there than they are here.  

[notsmokinjo]

Oh yes we love desserts... lots of people will skip the entre (starter) and just have a main a dessert when eating out. Growing up we always had sweets (dessert) after dinner every night...well if we ate our main that was. I usually do dinner and sweets every night for the kid. Although I don't do the desserts you see on master chef. When I travelled to Sydney earlier this year I went to Reynold resteraunt... omg best dessert I've ever had. I didn't care it was totally on my no list and I was dick for 2 days...it was so worth it.

G’day 

The best desert is just coming into season. Mango……,

It starts with the calipso mango from Darwin way, but in a month or so the Bowans and the Kensington prides will appear. 
I don’t think we’ll get too many local ones this year if it’s anything like my neighbours tree. Rain and moisture when it flowered caused the fruit not to set and there is not a single fruit that I’ve seen.

[notsmokinjo]

Bowen's are my fav...but being a temporary Darwin girl for a few years can't say I mind the calypso either.

 

The rain did the same thing to dad's peach, feijoa and loquat trees last year...so far the feijoa and loquat trees seem like we will get a harvest this year....peaches are too early to say yet.

[notsmokinjo]

I need to learn the word no...and use it.

Confession: The first batch of ginger bickies I made... did not get eaten because when it said 4 teaspoons of fresh grated ginger I decided to use the jar ginger.....except it wasn't the ginger jar I took outa the fridge...nope it was the garlic jar..

I killed a spider last night for the first time in years. Normally I catch and release them outside or give them a chance to get away but it was 2:30 in the morning and he was just dangling from a picture frame right above my night stand turning in circles AND he was big!

[Brioski]
