Christmas in July!





You can imagine my excitement when I stumbled upon the Alpine Winter Festival that's being held during the winter months in Melbourne & Sydney. This festival combines an outdoor skating rink, a custom-built alpine ski lodge featuring open fires & serving winter delicacies from around the world, European live music, an alpine food market selling gluvog, punch & hot chocolate plus a St Morritz Bar serving 'alpine-inspired' cocktails! Heaven!

Christmas Biscuits





Melbournian Vicki Davis bakes some of the most amazing decorative biscuits I've ever seen. You'll often find her beautiful designs at cafes & food-stores across Australia. The biscuits featured here were part of her 2008 cafe range. Happily, I can report that her sweet treats do indeed taste as good as they look!
