So how many did you get? Not too difficult, hey?
The first was a beautiful bunch of purple lilies given to me by a lovely and thoughtful friend we had over for dinner. They looked and smelt beautiful for weeks, I couldn't believe how long the lasted!
The second is a new loaf Coles has started to bake; a stone baked wholemeal and quinoa pane di casa. It's currently my favourite bread.
The third is a fantastic Pure Harvest prize pack I won from Create Bake Make. Full of lots of goodies to play with in the kitchen, now I just need to get my recipe imagination going. How fun is it receiving a pack like this in the mail?
The fourth is a cast iron pan. I love the colour, the way it cooks and that it's a great size for when I am cooking up a lunch for one. It was also a bargain in the Aldi clearance at $6.95.
The fifth is purple asparagus. This is the first time I've bought it and you'll see it popping up in a recipe next week. Again, how good is spring colour?
And last is a fresh colourful salad using salmon. I have a bit of a thing for salmon at the moment, and with the lovely weather kicking in, seasonal salads are firmly back on the menu.
November was a quieter month in the kitchen before the craziness of my favourite month December hits us. JJ turns 1 and the calender is already booking up fast with Christmas catch ups revolving around food and drink. I'm looking forward to cooking up a Christmas storm :)
