easter feaster
easter's a big deal over here in oz-land. with supermarket aisles stocked up with chocolate easter bunnies, bilbies, wombats, care bears, thomas-trains, bob-the-builders and whatnots from the beginning of march. oh. and 1kg easter eggs. can't imagine what it'd be like to go through an entire egg!
chicks come into play a lot over here as well. one crept over my choc egg the other day, hopping over the whole mess on my desktop. must've been hard work for the li'l chickie. he was sweet, and loved basking in the artificial light of the computer screen. it's lying, exhausted, at the side now.
since most of the shops are closed over the long weekend (fri-tues) we decided to stock up and stay home and go picnicking! lots of google-ed recipes involved, and cooking up a storm in our little kitchen over the past week. it's an exceedingly good feeling to have the aroma of yummy comfort foods infuse the whole house, especially with the cold weather.
yummy soft-centred choc souffles the flatmate made.
to add to the list of incredibly sinful foods consumed the past few days:
homemade chicken-mushroom pot pie
blue mould full fat milk cheese with crusty bread
fresh fettucine with spinach-and-mascarpone-cream sauce
lots of chocolates!
a whole tin of primrose cocktail sausages
grilled eggplant and zucchini, drizzled with olive oil and lemon juice
a takeout hawaiian pizza
homemade custard danish with apple filling (thanks to the flatmate!)
beer, prawn crackers and camembert cheese
ok. am definitely not planning on buying myself a weighing scale.

I wish I have a flatmate like you. The homemade chicken pot pie sounds good. So does the choc souffle.
it's so cool you guys actually celebrate Easter!! :]]*
man, i dun think i will ever get off my bum to bake..keke.
jettykey: you shd try making it, then! it's pretty simple, and i think the recipe's printed on the side of the campbell's cream of chicken and mushroom soup can! it's pretty yum!
merry.little.lady: it's a HUGE thing with the angmohs. dunno how chocs and bunnies fit in with the whole 'risen christ' theme, though.
kachuaz: the trick is to get a flatmate who does! heh!
i also ate a lot during easter... and the last week, we roasted a duck! not too bad!! I think maybe i can sell duck rice and char siew rice now..hmmm
