Looking some cute Crochet Bunny Patterns? Any of these bunny amigurumi patterns would make a cute Easter gift for a boy or girl.
This is a light lemony flourless cake that will be perfect on a beautiful summer/spring afternoon (although it’s winter in Australia now). The cake reminds me a little bit like friands; moist and almondy. I like this cake the next day, after it’s completely chilled, and the flavour and texture seems to get better with time. This cake is on the sweet side, so I would recommend reducing the sugar (probably down to 200 grams) if you don’t like your cake overly sweet. Update: I’ve received several requests to provide a volume measurement for this recipe. I’ve been reluctant to do so because I’m one of those bakers who like to methodically measure out each ingredient by weight. I feel that it’s the only reliable way to get a consistent result. But hey, that’s just me. Anyway, I have updated the recipe with volume measurement as requested. I understand that Australian measuring cups and spoons may vary slightly from American. So, just a note that I have provided American cups conversion here. Please let me know if there is any mistake in the conversion. Lemon, Ricotta and Almond Flourless Cake (Adapted from Donna Hay Magazine Winter June-July 2013) 120 grams (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened 275 grams (1 1/3 cups) caster sugar 1 vanilla bean, split and seeds scraped 1/4 cup lemon zest 4 eggs, separated and at room temperature 240 grams (2 1/2 cups) almond meal 300 grams (10 1/2 oz) ricotta Flaked almonds, to decorated Icing sugar, for dusting Heat oven to 160 degree celcius fan-force (325 degree fahrenheit fan-forced). Line the base and sides of a 20cm round cake tin with baking paper and set aside. Place the butter, 165 grams caster sugar, vanilla seeds and lemon zest in an electric mixer and beat for 8-10 minutes or until pale and creamy. Scrap down the sides of the bowl, then gradually add the egg yolks, one at a time, continuing to beat until fully combined. Add the almond meal and beat to combine. Fold ricotta through the almond meal mixture. Beat the egg whites in a clean bowl with a hand-held electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining sugar to the egg whites mixture and whisk until stiff peaks form. Gently fold a third of the egg whites into the cake mixture. Repeat with the rest of the egg whites. Pour the mixture into the prepared cake tin, smooth the tops with a palette knife, decorate the cake with almond flakes, and bake for 40-45 minutes or until cooked and firm to touch. Allow to cool completely in the cake tin. Dust with icing sugar to serve.

Waking up to a fresh cup of coffee is no fantasy for most of us, it's the main necessity of life. Without that hot and steamy cup, one couldn't fathom interacting with other people, not to mention working or doing some task that requires moderate levels of concentration. Some people also like to be reminded of that Eau de Vie throughout their day by surrounding themselves with all sorts of coffee accessories and paraphernalia, just to make life bearable up until the next cup of this goodness. If you are a coffee lover yourself or know another maniac of the same sorts, chances are you'll need to find them (or yourself) an appropriate coffee gift celebrating the warm brew. And there's no way you could get away with a simple pack of store-bought coffee, oh no, it HAS to be the most creative gift!

I am a certified art teacher and did years of masters work in art as well as being a studio artist who has sold my work at galleries. At my Montessori school I teach children to draw. Teach it. Part of that teaching is to have children copy my childlike drawings. Yes, copy. We view and copy the shapes that make an image and once they are voiced in how to construct an image they go nuts for drawing on their own having the tools to really look and create. The process is similar to teaching phonics before they can decode any word. Here are some examples of copying to become an artist. None of these children have been in kindergarten yet. My drawing lessons are often given at a dry erase board as children copy me step by step until the image is created. This is highly effective since we talk about placement, shapes and composition as we go. A drawing table set up. Once they have confidence to draw they beg to copy from books or draw any image they see. From book to paper. Drawing table outcome. Not in kindergarten yet! Another good example of how children become artists by copying.
Curtains in the kitchen are a way to add a touch of style to your decor. In the kitchen this point is often overlooked.
I love these simple little cakes. I know they look quite plain, but trust me, they are absolutely delicious. The best thing about them is that they are so easy to make. In Australia, friands are typically baked in small oval cake tins. You can of course bake these in standard muffin pan. Now on the topic of brown butter (beurre noisette) vs melted butter. The brown butter apparently gives a nutty note to the cake. I found that it didn’t make a whole heap of difference worthwhile the effort of browning the butter. Well, that’s my opinion anyway. So melted butter for my friands it is. Of all the different favours I have experimented with, my favourite is still the classic blueberry and lemon. When baked, the blueberries will burst and become jammy and delicious. These little cakes are best served still warm from the oven, with the crust crisp and the centre moist and light. Having said that, they are just as wonderful after a day or two. Blueberry and Lemon Friands Makes about 5 100 grams icing sugar 25 grams plain flour 85 grams almond meal (ground almond) Zest of 1 lemon 120 grams egg whites (about 3 eggs) 100 grams unsalted butter, melted and cooled About 85 grams blueberries About 1/4 cup almond flakes Additional butter and flour for prepping the cake pan. See method below. To make Blueberry and Lemon Friands: Preheat oven to 200 degrees celcius conventional (or 180 degrees celcius fan-forced). Rub softened butter in the holes of the friand or muffin pan, and dust each hole lightly with flour. Tap the pan, upside down, over the sink to get rid of excess flour. Set aside. (Note: Don't be tempted to skip this step even if you have a non-stick pan. It not only helps to guarantee that the friands won't get stuck in the pan, the butter and flour will give a nice golden crust all over.) Combine icing sugar, plain flour, almond meal and lemon zest in a large bowl. Set aside. Lightly whisk egg whites in a separate bowl until they form a light foam. (Note: It's important not to over whisk the egg whites or you will rubbery friands. This step is only for breaking up the egg whites slightly so that it can be folded into the dry ingredients easier.) Tip egg whites and cooled melted butter into the dry ingredients. Using a spatula, lightly fold the mixture together until just combined. Divide the batter into the holes of the prepared pan up to 3/4 full. Drop about 6 blueberries in each hole. Lightly crush almond flakes with your fingers and scatter over the cake batter. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until golden and a skewer inserted into centre of cake comes out clean. Serve warm with a light dusting of icing sugar.

Crochet a unique Floyd Rose flower, inspired by the iconic guitar tremolo system. This intricate pattern combines music and craft, creating a stunning bloom with layered petals and wire-reinforced leaves.
This design features interlocking tile shapes in a diagonal arrangement, adding interest to the usual modular construction. It was inspired by the beautiful 19th century tiled floors which can still be found in many British homes, especially in porches and hallways. A touch of texture adds extra cosiness! The pattern includes instructions for four specially-shaped motifs, a continuous join and a matching border. There is a separate file for each stage of construction, with plenty of photographs and useful tips to ensure a successful result, plus one 20-page file in English and one 25-page file in Spanish containing the whole pattern. Skill level: intermediate to advanced but all steps are clearly explained and illustrated, and help is always available if needed. Just send a PM or write to me at the email address in the pattern. Queries relating to the Spanish version will be passed on to Julia (see below). Materials needed for the original shown (top photo): Eleven x 100 gm balls of Deramores Studio DK (273 yd/250m per ball) - two each of four colours plus three of a fifth colour used in the motifs and also as the joining/main border colour. Size US7 / 4.5mm and size US8 / 5.00mm hooks. The full motif measures 9” across at the widest point and the finished afghan measures 35” x 45”. The total weight of the blanket is 1.5 lb (700g), and total yardage used 1911. All weights and measurements are approximate. Any weight or type of yarn can of course be used instead, with the appropriate hooks - my wonderful testers both used different yarns so check their project pages for helpful details. If you use five colours you will have some yarn left over, so fewer colours might mean fewer balls needed - impossible to say I’m afraid as it depends how you allocate them. You could always add fringing or corner tassels to use up any surplus, or make a small matching cushion… Apologies for adding to your stash! Sincere and heartfelt thanks ❤️❤️ to my fabulous testers, Lara DreamsinCrochet and Heather Fluttershy01. Thank you too to everyone who downloads this pattern - I hope you enjoy bringing a touch of Victoriana to your home!
