Australia Day and icecream!

Here's my little Aussie Evangeline!

A couple of days late but once again we celebrated Australia Day with our friends at our annual bbq at Fawkner Park in South Yarra...After all these years Lee has the charcoal bbq down pat.  He lit it at 11.30am and was cooking on and off till about 4pm.  I didn't make my souvlakia this year..It was soutzoukakia, marinated chicken wings, paidakia (good old lamb chops - Sam Kekovich would be proud!) sausage sizzle and salads... The boys played cricket, we all sat under the trees and had a drink, ate, chatted and laughed...It was a great day!

Summer fruits

I'm not a huge fruit fan.  A banana here or there....however summer is probably the only time you will see me indulging.   Mangoes mmmmmm, cherries are number one on the list...especially the ones from Red Hill but only equal to the very Greek karpouzi ke tiri..Translated Watermelon and feta cheese.  I absolutely love the stuff...Very simple but very mourish.  If I was to eat anything that would "transport" me to Greece it is this.  The balance of sweet and salty is just out of this world.  Who needs salted caramels???
