Our first Easter holiday week was DIVINE sunny weather with many of our friends having escaped to the beaches. Not so this past week, a cool change came through and today is a very showery Saturday.
I don't mind the rain though - in fact I love the way it makes everything fresh and clean and new. It's all about perspective I guess... living in Brisbane, Australia we have a very sunny climate so a cooler change makes us instantly think of cosy interiors, log fires and delicious hearty food!

I especially love it when I am in Paris on a buying trip as a rainy day just means a cosy cafe with a creamy chocolat chaud [hot chocolate] or café crème and all the people-watching your heart could desire!

But right now, I'm going to try a warm hearty recipe from kitchen maven Donna Hay that she sent through this week - just sounds delish. I love to cook, so although mine will taste great, I won't post a photo of my version as hers will always look much better!
Enjoy!
Jennifer.
