My lovely friend Celia writes the most delicious blog on the planet... Fig Jam and Lime Cordial.

One of the things that she posts about is the delights in her bountiful Australian kitchen. She links to other blogs around the globe so I thought I'd share of few picts of what's cooking here at Casa Del Aguas.
A nice batch of bread dough turned into a baguette and some rolls.
We had some friends over for dinner last Saturday and started off with a cheese board made by the hub. The pale yellow cheese is one of my favorites, "Red Dragon", made mustard seeds it has a kick.
He made the cutting board from a piece of walnut. It's just the right size for passing around.
The hub made parmesan polenta hearts.

I made a spicy tomato sauce to go with the polenta.
Oranges, dates and spicy sugared almonds on a romaine salad in an avocado oil/champagne dressing.
Almond sponge cake got a whipped cream and fresh strawberry filling with Nuetella.
The hub also made these steak rollups stuffed with carrots, spring onions and zucchini.
Last night I made Moosewood vegetarian chile, coconut cream corn, chicken strips, also lemon yogurt muffins. The muffin recipe came from The Enchanted Broccoli Forest, another Moosewood cookbook that I hadn't looked at in a long time. It was like seeing an old friend.
What's in your kitchen? Do you have a favorite cookbook? Do dish!
