Posts Tagged ‘Turkish ceramics’

This month’s IMK is dedicated to Barbara Harris of Winos and Foodies, who passed away yesterday. I hadn’t known Barbara very long, but she was always kind, and a highly respected member of the Australian food blogging community.

The last entry on Barbara’s blog was her joyous June IMK post. Our deepest condolences to her family and friends.

In my kitchen…

…is a beautiful new egg basket, woven from our rosemary prunings by our friend and neighbour Nic. I think it’s a work of art…

In my kitchen…

…are three varieties of apples.  The one at the back left are Pink Ladies – an old favourite of ours – but the Rouge Pinks on the right and the Stirma Pippens at the front are both new to us…

In my kitchen…

…are my new Turkish ceramics, purchased from Turkuaz Motif.  I loved the matching inside and outside fish! I bought this bowl, perfectly sized for dips and condiments…

…and a matching mini bowl for sauces and oils…

Here is a close up of the tablecloth we bought – our dining room is painted Egyptian red with sage green wood trim – and the tablecloth matches perfectly…

In my kitchen…

…is a Römertopf clay garlic holder, which arrived in the same Peters of Kensington order as the loaf pans

In my kitchen…

…is the best purchase I’ve made in ages!  My new iPod dock takes up very little room, produces a reasonable sound, and lets me cook while dancing around the kitchen to Meat Loaf…

In my kitchen…

…is a chocolate chip cake, made to a recipe from the Green & Black cookbook.  The cake itself was quite ordinary, but the topping was wonderful…

I scattered over Moo’s magic sugar crystals, and they set like shards of polished glass…

In my kitchen…

…is this stunning French clay speculaas mould, a gift from our friend Maureen.  It’s finished to look like stained wood.  I haven’t figured out how to use it yet, so I’d be grateful for any tips…

In my kitchen…

…is a ginormous tin of sliced jalapeños.  We went to buy a small jar during our last visit to Harkola, and found one for $4.50.  Then we walked past this 2.8kg tin for $8…

In my kitchen…

…are the baby garlic bulbs that didn’t grow to a decent size this year.  They’re all under an inch in diameter.  We’ve been eating them up, and they’ve been delicious…

In my kitchen…

…is a little porcelain wren, or at least that’s what Pete thinks it is.  It’s a gift for my mother…

In my kitchen…

…is a bowl of salt roasted almonds.  The process turns their shells papery crisp and gives them a delicious, addictive taste.  We buy some every year to add to our Christmas hampers…
