New Princess


It was really nice to take a day out from designing for others, and just painting something for myself. I had forgotten how much fun this little girl is to paint! Now I'm working on some art diary covers featuring her royal pointy-shoe-ness, and they'll be for sale at the Quilt & Craft Show at Darling Harbour, Sydney in June.

Mmmmmmm ... that smells good!


Yes ... these were the words I heard as I tried a new recipe today. I made vegemite/cheese scrolls and custard/sultana scrolls. A dozen of each! Nothing difficult about them, and they taste amazing! I will confess to laughing like a loon trying to roll, cut and transfer the custard scrolls to the tray ... they were pretty messy.

It's a recipe from The Destitute Gourmet, and I found it in my Simple Savings newsletter. Everyone loves these, and next time I will make 2 dozen cheesymite scrolls and skip the custard mess (and tempting calories). They'll be great in lunch boxes! The photo above isn't my actual scrolls (but it's close) ... I can't upload pics until I get rid of this darn computer virus!

UPDATE ... click here for a link to the Simple Savings newsletter that contains the recipe!
