HANDMADE BUY OF THE DAY : A SNUGGLY DESIGN

How loveable are theses bread boards from Etsy store Snug? and only US$27 each! the hardest part would be deciding between designs.

WHAT A CORKER

I like to think these quirky 'toast it' coasters were the manifestation of a sudden moment of breakfast table inspiration from Brazillian designer Patricia Naves. Unquestionable Funky in use or stored as a loaf of 'cork bread' on your counter top they're sure to be a conversation starter in any kitchen. Get your slice of daily bread from Patricia's design house OITI

DONNA HAY'S BACON & EGG PIES

A friend recently gifted me a copy of Donna Hay's Fast, Fresh, Simple cookbook and last Sunday the boyfriend and I indulged in our first recipe; the egg & bacon pies. Check out my results below - pretty impressive for a quick and easy breaky! the perfect fluffy eggs...and I know its only Tuesday but I'm already looking forward to another weekend's breakfasts a-la Donna Hay!

3 Rashers of Bacon

3 eggs

1/2 cup of sour cream

1tblsp of parsley leaves ( I used fresh chives instead)

Preheat oven to 180˚c. Grease 2 ramekins/pie tins and line each with 1 1/2 rashers of bacon (next time I'm going to cook the bacon a little in a pan first for maximum crispiness). In a bowl whisk together the eggs, cream and herbs. Pour the mix evenly into the ramekins and bake for 25mins or until the egg is set. Serve with hot buttered toast.
