BEAUTIFUL!!!


It is Christmas week, everyone is busy to get ready for The Day.  The shopping centre, the shops the markets are serving and offering beautiful things for the festivity.
Australia is a land of plenty and the home for beauties. In this post,  I emphasise the cooking and the beautiful dishes for the festive season.
Beautiful Sweet Tart
Savoury and Sweet are beautiful. Meat dishes are always served in the festivity.
Australian lambs produce the best meat in the world, and recently we learnt that Kangaroo meat is very healthy and readily available in the market or supermarkets.
The flavour is almost similar to lamb.  I cook and love the meat, but mainly the fillet, it is not long to cook and very tender.

I don't include it in the party dishes, but it is a beautiful food to have for family meals.

Beautiful Pan-fried Fillet Roo.
People do prepare and cook the traditional Christmas Classic,  Prepared Christmas pudding a few months before as well as baking the Christmas cake.  And on the day they cook the Beautiful grand roast Turkey, baked glace Ham to serve as well.  A big feast, indeed!  However, more and more people simply enjoy the festivity by serving food that suitable for the environment. Simple food and salads, fresh fruits and cakes are ideal for our climate.
This cooking, beautiful cold dishes can be beautiful and delicious, what you need is only being organised, and it is stress-free. The meals I did for a Luncheon at our home were Cold Dishes.

Small verity dishes to prepare, but they are tasty and look beautiful.
Nowadays we could get beautiful festive food ready from the shop, it can be convenient if we don't have the time to cook.  I did get a tender roasted turkey breast from the shop, and what I need was simply dress it beautifully.  You could do that too!



Other Beautiful Things To Enjoy.


Beautiful Colours and Beautiful Flavours

Beautiful flowers at this time of the year can be varied.  It is spring, brilliant colours are in the garden.

The Beautiful plant needs care, and the reward is harvesting.


Lets us celebrate 'Beauty', from the food, the garden and of course the family.
On that note, I am looking forward to spending time at Christmas with my Beautiful Children and their husbands and Beautiful Grand Children.  I am grateful we are beautifully blessed.




Have a Beautiful Day, Enjoy Your Christmas Week.
