For lunch I made Slow Cooked Sticky Asian Lamb - I've seen this recipe floating around facebook, and it's delicious.
600ml thickened cream, whipped
400g choc-coated honeycomb, smashed so some is in chunks and some is crumbs
4 bananas sliced diagonally dipped into juice of 1/2 lemon or whole lime
50g crushed roasted hazelnuts
1 jar Woolworths Select Gourmet Toffee Sauce (couldn't find it so used their Gourmet Caramel Sauce)
2 tubes Nestle Rolos (couldn't find these either, so used 100g Cadbury Caramel Chocolate)
2 x Flakes
Reserve 1/4 cup smashed honeycomb for decoration. Place half of remaining honeycomb in base of trifle bowl, then half of hazelnuts, half bananas and half toffee sauce followed by half of the whipped cream. Repeat. Place Rolos on top for decoration and sprinkle over Flakes and remaining honeyomb (one Flake is plenty, have the other to have with a cup of tea).
Friday night I finished making the X and Plus blocks. This one is next to be sewn together.
Saturday night I started sewing the Seville Limes blocks together
finished it off last night and made borders and binding.
Another top added to the pile (must set up the quilting frame). Shouldn't have had that striped block in the corner.
Had a great day out yesterday - lunch with 3 friends I travelled around Europe with many years ago. Lynell and Robyn I see quite often and it was lovely to see Wendy as well.

Hello Linda,
Oh my, love the Seville Lime blocks, so fresh looking. I have to agree with you on listening and watching your adult children is amazing. Some of the best memories are eating and talking at the table.
Have a lovely day.
