My Saturday tradition involves me walking down to Movida Bakery either on my own or with one of my friends, ordering a skinny latte and an amazing donut, I usually go for berry flavoured filling, or salted caramel. This Saturdays however I specifically went to sample something new; Movida Bakery’s “Dossant”.

Before I explain it to you here are some other names that were considered for this new pastry:

Cronut, Croisnut, Crodough, Doghnets, MoDo and DoVida.

It is a donut-croissant! The idea came from someone in New York called Dominique Ansel and MoVida have adapted it to their own. Mine pictured below is filled with, i think, raspberry and rhubarb custard. Delicious. And this is another reason why Saturday tradition must go on.

I spent the first day of my holidays catching up with my best friend Andrea at Gardiner and Field in Armadale.

We sipped on coffees, devoured  our breakfasts; I had the asparagus and poached egg and Andrea had raspberry quinoa, enjoyed the lovely atmosphere and planned new adventures.

Here’s what I cooked for dinner last night. They were delicious. I’d never made them before, however I had made cannelloni and they are quite similar.

This page I’ve scanned in for you is from my journal which I have titled “Juliet’s  Cooking Adventures. I started this journal earlier this year but haven’t really had the chance to try new recipes because I was so busy with uni. And now I am on holidays so hopefully I can cook more.

The reason I have made this journal is so I can track my cooking progress, remember what I’ve made and what I thought about what I’ve made. 

I really love food but I’m not that great at coming up with my own recipes, so I kind of hope that by keeping a cooking journal and trying to regularly add to it my cooking skills can improve!

TIPS:

-It didn’t mention anywhere in the recipe that you should season it with salt and pepper, i highly recommend some salt at least, probably in step 4.

Bon appétit! 

ps. the image of the pasta is my own!

In the mean time here are some shots I’ve taken…

Scherazade is the daughter of Ramdane Touhami, he is one of the interesting people I met in Sydney a couple of days ago.

You have to watch it!

This was taken on the day of the Met Gala. I love Grace. ( She is the Creative Director for Vogue US).

John Galliano’s outfit is making me laugh. What on Earth inspired him to layer his clothing in such a way?

I had the most incredible day and got to meet so many interesting and talented people.

Me in front of the Harbour Bridge. It was super windy. I love this place.

Meeting Simone Cipriani from the UN – Ethical Fashion Initiative

I was like omg lol, you can’t do that, you need to stay there and cook it otherwise it’ll burn. Silly boys .

Home Clothes? Maybe also known as lounging clothes. Do you know what I’m talking about? I just bought some nice and new ones.

Home clothes to me are those clothes that you can’t wait to put on as soon as you get home because you know you’ll be nice and comfy and cozy. My usual outfit is made up of leggings/pyjama bottoms and a jumper/long sleeve top. By the way, I would never be seen outside of the house in these clothes, especially not the leggings, unless I was going to the gym. They’re just a bit too casual for my style.

I wonder how many other people have home clothes?

These are the leggings I got from Country Road. These will be my second pair. I went back to CR because the first ones were really good quality and fit well. They cost $39.95.
I also go this. They call it a Jersey Cable Sweat. It is a long sleeve scoop neck sweat top. From Country Road as well. I feel like I could actually wear this out, maybe over a dress or with a skirt.  I feel jeans would make it look too casual. And lazy.  Lazy is only good for being at home! $69.95.

PS. I’m wearing both of these in the image above, it’s kinda hard to see that’s why I inserted the two Country Road store images too
