Ooooh. I love watching chickens hatch. I used to love doing it with my class, but guess who got to take them home each evening and spent ages watching and playing with them?




Well, I couldn't leave them in a cold, lonely classroom at night, they may have got scared. :'(

Made this yesterday, Chookie.  It is sooooo divine. 

I made a pastry base as I didn't have filo and couldn't be bothered with the stupormarket.  I used all macadamias instead of almonds and used yoghurt instead of cream as I didn't have any.  I used a bit of orange zest instead of the mandarin.  I didn't use too much as I thought the taste might be a bit strong for the small people in the house...turned out they didn't like the macadamias anyhow - they got in the way of the pure bliss of the butter and honey ;)  The princess looked very content with the TM bowl to clean.

I adapted a tart pastry from one in Cooking with Kurma. 

I took a couple of photos and shall upload them soon.

Thanks for this one Chookie, it is scrumptious.  Only used 100g slivered almonds and decided to go rectangular for ease of cutting smaller pieces.

Yum !, extra points for presentation jd  ;) For some reason they don't sell slivered almonds in the UK, only flaked. :(

Oh, there should be a warning here that it will be hard to resist having second helpings on this. Tasted this myself today along with many other scrumptious desserts made by chookie, and I will definitely be making this myself when I get back to Perth. Thank you chookie and Ral for such a wonderful day x

This will be the next tart for me to try. I'm sure I have macadamias in the cupboard.

I'm going to put this one on my list of choices for our Probus birthday party in June.  It will be hard to decide 1 savoury and 1 sweet dish by the time June comes around.

I'm not a sweets or ice cream fan but remember trying this at Chookies last year and it was lovely.
