Fluffy gooey meringue

Last Saturday was a wonderfully warm WINTER day. Makes me wonder, I would love to live somewhere it was like this throughout winter, instead of freak occurances...
Anyway.
Went for a stroll into town, then down to the harbour and South Beach. Water was freezing! Won't be swimming for a while, at least, it would have to be a lovely warm day like last Saturday.



Getting very good at meringues. Love the little tart cases, a good idea for next morning tea. Lovly puffs & swirls courtesy of Meryl.

What I'd like to happen this weekend

I want to wear these a bit

Then go here,



Get a bit of tree climbing in


Lounge here


And one of these would be splendid


I would also love some chocolate right now.

Brushing Up My Shakespeare, forsooth

Saw Macbeth last night. Now I have Shakespeare on the brain. I'm starting on converting all the Shakespeare videos in the library to DVD, so I can take them all home and watch (all the ones taped off the TV, otherwise it doesn't fufill copyright...).

First is Henry V (Kennth Branagh's version, with a very young Christian Bale as Falstaff's boy - he only gets about 2 lines, but the rest of the cast is stellar!)

Lovely day today. I'm sitting here, with the windows open, letting in the lovely springy air. Can't wait for the warmer weather. I'm really hoping it doesn't get as cold as it's supposed to on the weekend...
