Sunday Sessions

There's no finer, more indulgent way to welcome the laziest day of the week than with Sunday brunch. I tried to get a table at Galleon (http://galleoncafe.com.au/) but the wait was long and my wavering sugar levels were threatening to drop to an all time low. We opted for Pelican (http://www.stkildapelican.com/) and I devoured my french toast with blueberries, cinnamon cream and maple syrup.

I've been really excited to cook a risotto as I've never cooked one before so tonight I cooked Jamie Oliver's Oozy mushroom risotto (http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=163174790380261). I picked up an amazing selection of mushrooms at the Vic Markets yesterday - enoki, oyster, and little king oyster mushrooms, and switched the dried porcini for dried shitake as I had some in the cupboard. The result was lovely and the different textures of the mushrooms really added to the dish. 

And to finish off a wonderful weekend, my sweet foodie sister has given me a piece of rhubarb and raspberry meringue pie... Can't wait to eat it!! Thanks sis :)
