Spare Room

This is a view of my spare room. It's got my piano against the opposite wall.


I painted and reupholstered the chair. I also had the idea of sticking 3D things to the wall instead of just flat pictures. So there's the lid of a pencil box (the dark blue rectangle) with some miniatures standing around on it, and a bamboo flute thing that doesn't actually work.

Monte Carlos. YESSSS!!!!!!!!

I made Monte Carlos last night. Approximately 91 billion of them. You're meant to make 50 with the recipe I used, but I only managed 40-something (that's over 90 individual bits before they get paired up), even though I specifically and meticulously made every single oval seven grams each. It took AGES. But they're yum.

Below is a picture after I'd eaten several.



The recipe is from "The Australian Women's Weekly Afternoon Tea".
