I've been a bit dumpling mad lately. This craze seems to coincide with Chinese New Year. But I didn't know how easy they were to make yourself! Just a bit time consuming. My Chicken & Shitake Mushroom dumplings were delicious! I like to boil or steam mine. Great to keep in the freezer as a quick meal.<br />

I forgot to show you these earlier. I made Plum Shrewsburys! They were absolutely scrumptious. Not bad for a first attempt.<br />
<br />
Here is the recipe...<br />
<br />
<b>Shrewsbury Biscuits - Edmonds Classics Cookbook</b><br />
<br />
125 g butter, softened<br />
1/2 cup sugar<br />
1 egg<br />
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest<br />
2 cups Champion standard grade flour<br />
1 teaspoon Edmonds baking powder<br />
raspberry jam<br />
<br />
Preheat oven to 180 deg celsius. Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg and lemon zest and beat well. Sift flour and baking power together. Mix dry ingredients into creamed mixture. Knead well. On a lightly floured board, roll out to 4mm thickness. Cut out rounds using a 7cm cutter. Cut a 1cm hole in the centre of half the biscuits. Place on greased oven trays. Bake for 10-15 minutes. When cold, spread whole biscuits with jam and top with biscuits with holes in them. Makes 22.<br />
<br />
*I used plum jam instead of raspberry which was delicious and had no seeds. And instead of a round cutter you could use any shape. My heart cutters are from Daiso.<br />
<br />
Happy baking!<br />
<br />

Funny, wonderful Internet! My order has already been shipped too so I can't wait to see. Actually, I can't remember all of the designs I have ordered so it will be a nice surprise in the mail.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: small;">And ha! I wonder how many will be written in and lovingly gifted. I can imagine I'll want to keep them all to myself to secretly admire. </span><br />

It's easy to forget you entered from a concrete jungle. We sat ourselves down with a lunch from Whole Foods. I had a delicious egg salad and a spinach, feta orzo salad which I am still obsessed with to this day. If you're interested, I found <a href="http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/spinach-and-orzo-salad/detail.aspx">this recipe</a> which comes pretty darn close. Also took a few too many photos of squirrels. Cheeky little buggers and certainly not shy!</span><br />

And oh boy, they weren't kidding</span><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">! We stayed at a Disneyland Resort Hotel (<a href="http://disneyland.disney.go.com/paradise-pier-hotel/?name=ParadisePierHotelLandingPage">this one</a>) and had a fantastic view of the park. Lots of walking (I used up all of my NYC bandaids - ouch!), AMAZING rides, Disney shopping and lots of photos. So much fun, I didn't want to leave. Definitely going back one day! <br />

<div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">I paid a long overdue visit to a good friend recently and she took me to all her local opshops. I found these cute cushion covers which have been lovingly handmade. One pumpkin orange with patchwork and the other woven baby blue. They are unusual sizes so I haven't found any inners for them yet. Just for you I have temporarily stuffed them with singlets and t-shirts from my drawers, which I guess I will need to refold after this is done (never thought of that...) </span></div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br />

My first <a href="http://www.bookdepository.co.uk/">Book Depository</a> order arrived yesterday. The Stylist's Guide to NYC by Sibella Court! </span><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; font-size: small;">The book is hardcover and has a small pull-out map in the front. It also has a handy pocket in the back, kind of like a Moleskine where you can put those bus tickets & fancy named serviettes (I know you keep those!). </span><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; font-size: small;">It has small, handy sections on Scents & Flower Merchants, Oddities & Curiosities, Jewellery & Hardware, Haberdashery & Handmade, Drapers & Upholstery, Art & Objects, Paper & Art Supplies (my fave), Kitchen & Table Paraphernalia and Furniture & Interiors. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">Sibella gives tips and suggested itineraries with 'loops of interest'. A pretty little guide that will have you oohing and ahhing at all the fascinating pictures. Mmm love the smell of the manila/recycled pages too. A must for any adventure to the Big Apple!</span> </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"> </span> </div>Beehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07586515454333897845noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8896833361786315761.post-59765986888356930672011-05-17T22:12:00.000+12:002011-05-17T22:12:24.883+12:00india block printing.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/0-qLUPW4KfI?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><br />

We had mini cupcakes with lemon icing, macarons, asparagus rolls, sammies, sausage rolls, chicken nibbles, pinwheels and cups of tea. Just the ladies, although a sneaky uncle and cute lil two-month old nephew turned up later to eat some leftovers. Hope all the mums out there had a fantastic day of hugs & treats!</span></span></span><br />

<div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Do you sometimes feel like you need another weekend to get over the weekend just been? This weekend was sort of a write off. I stayed out till 3.30am on a girls night out and didn't quite recover from it. Yep. Getting older. Oh, and I went to karaoke at the R.S.A the next night too. Ha! Wow, talk about party animal.</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">More excitedly I did catch a lot of cool music on the Coachella livestream on Youtube. I watched Interpol late on Saturday night and Arcade Fire last night. Uh, how cool was Arcade Fire?! Pretty fantastic I say.</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br />

<div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: small;">I totally missed this last year at the International Film Festival. Fortunately, we were able to catch it on Sunday as part of the <a href="http://www.worldcinemashowcase.co.nz/">World Cinema Showcase 2011</a>. It was such a heartfelt documentary. Bill is such an enthusiastic, honest character with seemingly endless amounts of energy for a man his age. He has such a good eye for fashion and individual style. So inspiring. It made me laugh and in other moments it made me cry. If you're in Auckland you still have time to catch it this Thursday and again on April 12. It will also be showing later in the month in Wellington and Dunedin, in May. Info <a href="http://www.worldcinemashowcase.co.nz/titles11/billcunninghamnewyork.html">here</a>.<br />

It's filled with adorable packaging ideas and lots of pretty pictures to satisfy a gift wrapping nut like myself. Thankfully both ladies are alive and well following the huge earthquake in Japan last week. My heart is breaking for everyone there. To help, you can <a href="http://hellosandwich.fetchapp.com/sell/oshainah">buy a digital copy</a> of the zine for only $5 and all proceeds go to the Red Cross. <a href="http://uguisu.ocnk.net/">Uguisu</a> is also donating 80% of all sales to the Red Cross Japan.</span><br />

I'm not a big cake baker partly due inheriting a useless oven so I had to run down to my Mums to make this. Kind of made me laugh as I sandwiched the two cakes together as it sort of resembled a giant <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macaron">macaron</a>. I topped it off with some <a href="http://www.masking-tape.jp/en/">washi tape</a> bunting in boy friendly colours with black & white bakers twine. </span><br />
