The actual movie scene can be viewed here. The exchange, with Luke Wilson, goes on:. Kate H: “. That’s not a real name! Who made that one up? It’s her name okay.

Mid-Century Modern – a trip to the NGV. I have a confession to make. I really like chairs. Really, really, really. There’s a fantastic new exhibition on at the Federation Square NGV. At the moment called ‘ Mid-Century Modern. 8216; and it is heaven for a chair-lover like me. It is a temporary exhibition about (as the name suggests! We realised that our kitchen table chairs (which are ratty and need serious attention) are Featherston – the. The doorway to chair heaven. I think all schools in Australia had...

The birthday celebrations begin. So I’m having a significant-number birthday this year. I’m planning on having a series of events that I link to this fact, and then post about it here. My good friend Sarah turned 40 last year and decided to celebrate by having 40 high teas across the year, which she has then written about on her blog called. I hope you also notice the age link in the title. She is a very fine, and witty woman! Http:/ time40.blogspot.com.au/? Festival of Kate’s Birthday 2014. June 3, 2014.

High Tea in West Footscray – katharinemargaret
https://katharinemargaret.com/2014/07/29/high-tea-in-west-footscray
High Tea in West Footscray. This post has been delayed because I am still catching up from my technical difficulties a few weeks ago… there’s still a few to follow in a non-linear fashion. Greg used the interweb to learn how to turn plates from the op shop into glamorous tiered displays. Easy to take apart and store as well, although the drill bit is very blunt now. His handiwork was much admired and he is a man-for-all-seasons (or something). This is a large number of people to cosy (cram! Rather exciti...

An experiment in clotted cream – katharinemargaret
https://katharinemargaret.com/2014/07/27/an-experiment-in-clotted-cream
An experiment in clotted cream. I had a couple of attempts recently at making clotted cream. Not something readily available here in Australia. Have read of others giving it a go a go and so thought I would have a go too. I read a few recipes online. For example, this entry on the Cupcake Project. Blog and this one on the Joe Pastry. The basic idea seems to be that you cook normal cream at a low temperature for a long time, the liquid evaporates and you have a much thicker, richer cream. July 27, 2014.
