Not as gorgeous as yours, of course! I’ve never made one as was a little worried about whether I could pull it off. But if you’re going to give it a 2 out of a 5 on the difficulty scale – then I’m going to go for it! 🙂

Which is awkward.

We recently replaced all of our old windows in our 1928 house, you can clean both sides from the inside!
That pavlova looks incredible! I’ll have to try making one, I’ve never made one before!

I had trouble with this pavlova and the meringues I posted recently. They go soft with the humidity. We have humidity going on here in a big way at the moment.

My husband doesn’t like mereigne (sp!) so I’ve never made it, but it looks so gorgeous!!! I’ve tried to make it at Easter before, but it is often too humid by then so it didn’t turn out too well…

I’ve never made a Pavlova before and have never seen malt vinegar used in a meringue recipe. Must try!

I have graduated to chopping with my left hand now- I’m getting quite ambidextrous! I lose the sling this week for home use, but I still need to be protected from jiggles when out and about. My arms still quite un-usable, so there’s still a ways to go. I guess slow but steady will be my motto for quite a while still 🙁

Thankfully he was fine, and as luck would have it, his brother was a roofer, so the hole was all patched up by the evening, free of charge!

Great looking pavlova – I haven’t had one of these babies in ages – it’s one of my favourite desserts!

That was our bugbear – the first one was great, but he sold his business after a year to Adam, who was actually a career fireman, so sometimes he just didn’t show up to do the lawns and when he did, the edges were dodgy. He was truly lovely though, kept trying to sell Pete tropical fish. I think he’s now a Station Master somewhere. Good guy, lousy lawnmower man. Then he sold his business to another guy who showed up for a year, then one day just disappeared. We suspect he might have died, but had no way to find out, his phone number just stopped answering.

Oh, and house cleaners. Sigh…don’t get me started there. After the third cleaner with the “you know I’m only doing this to make a little money between jobs/uni/acting, I’m really much better than this, and how dare you criticize my work just because the toilet is still filthy when I’m finished?” attitude, I gave up, bought a Roomba and scrubbed the toilets myself. 🙂

Now Charlie, aren’t you sorry you asked? 😉
