Sea Coral

Sea Coral

A few years back the husband and I took a trip to the Great Barrier Reef, and went snorkling for a day. It was one of my favourite holidays that we have been on, as it was our first holiday together. We both loved the reef so much that we vowed to go back one day soon. Ever since then I have been fascinated by coral. I love how it can change so easily, within moments.

Then when I saw John and Sherry's coral at Young House Love, I fell even in more love. What an awesome way to display it. Love it!

Gift Wrapping: PomPom

Design Sponge

With only 155 days until Christmas, it is about time I start to think about presents. And how to wrap them this year. So far the pompom idea is wining with its ease and statement factor.

Point & Shoot - Sunday 25th July

This weekend saw me take it a touch slower than usual. The sun finally showed its presence on Sunday, allowing me to do a touch a gardening without wearing 15 layers (I managed to get away with 4 layers).

So I took the opportunity to do some maintenance on my worm farm, and use some of the castings to plant my new herbs.

We have parsley, sage, rosemary, mint, garlic chives and four lettuce mix. I am wanting to go back for some basil, and lemon grass. I am looking forward to cooking with my new herbs in the coming weeks.

Who knows, it might actually get me motivated to create my veggie patch!

I saw this frame on Etsy, and fell in love. It's just so whimsical and would look spectacular in a nursery.

Sticky Ribs

A few weeks back I brought the Donna Hay Kids Magazine, as it featured some interesting recipes. One of which was Sticky Ribs with Potato Wedges.

I have never had Sticky Ribs before, and had been meaning to try them for some time now. So, on a trip to the butchers that weekend, I picked up a kilo of pork ribs.

1 kg pork ribs
1tbs tomato paste
1 tbs worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup tomato sauce
1/2 cup brown sugar

* Preheat the oven to 200 degrees.
* Mix all the ingredients together, and coat the ribs.
* Place the ribs on a tray (I used a roasting rack inside a baking dish). Coat with the leftover marinade regularly. Bake for 40 mins, or until the marinade is sticky.

I tried following the recipe, but I was missing a few ingredients, so I made up my own, comprising of brown sugar, soy sauce, oyster sauce and worcestershire sauce. All in all, they were quite good.

For the wedges we coated them with Bush Spices and oil. We baked them on a tray for 30 minutes, until golden brown.
