Birthday Happy



It was my father's birthday a few weeks ago... for his dinner, I cooked beef cheek ravioli (hence the card) and made a triple chocolate tart. yumyum



The chocolate tart had a double layer of ganache, a think layer of milk chocolate and a thin top layer of dark. The hazelnuts were actually meant to be a praline...but that did not turn out so well, still, they look quite nice (I think). The pastry was quite thin, which I am not big on personally, I like thick! But oh well, next time eh?





if you want the recipe just ask, but I got it from the Gourmet Traveller magazines, ah! They're fantastic

Glyn?

Just some little pictures I drew (some time ago)... hope you like them!

after the completion this picture, I had the strangest feeling that I knew the man I drew...
as it turns out, I believe it has an uncanny resemblance of a boy whom I went to primary school with.



weird.
