Its a long weekend here...

Mikaela is with her Dad at the beach.

Nath and I have 3 days together alone.

Saturday involved lots of running about and chores type stuff... like getting more glasses (you know how they always break in the dishwasher and all of a sudden you have none?) AND a whole lot of wooden coat hangers (40) to make a start on getting my wardrobe in super order. Its getting there. I had no idea how cheap those wooden coathangers are!! My dear younger sister {Leanne} enlightened me (she is such a little home-making Goddess)... bought a box of 20 for $17 at KMart... NO WAY! Yes WAY. So there you go, my wardrobe looks so special... I need more though. I need to do ALL of Nath's too. And spares. I like order, a lot!

And I made a "little" cheesecake... not so little... its huge, like 30cms... and there are TWO HUGE slices that have been eaten by Nath and I.
It is perfect.
Delicious.
Fabulous White Chocolate Cheesecake.
We ate two (much) smaller slices tonight also... surprisingly ~I feel a bit queazy!~

I share the receipe {bill granger} for your enjoyment also:
100g (3 1/2 oz) plain sweet biscuits
50 g (13/4 oz) butter, melted
250ml (1 cup) cream
250g (9 oz) cream cheese
250g (9 oz) mascarpone cheese
125g (1/2 cup) castor (superfine) sugar
500g (1lb 2 oz) whitel chocolate, melted
To Serve:
passionfruit pulp

Process the biscuits in a food processor until they look like breadcrumbs. Add the melted butter, process briefly, then tip the mixture into a 20cm (8 inch) springform tin lined with a disc of baking paper (I used silocone). Press the biscuit mixture firmly into the base of the tin, then put the tin in the fridge until you need it.

Using electric beaters, whisk the cream, cream cheese, mascarpone, sugar and chocolate together until smooth. Pour this mixture onto the biscuit base and put the cheesecake back into the fridge for at least 3 hours or overnight. Serve drizzled with passionfruit pulp and cut into wedges. Serves 8.
************************
Today we made two trips to the rubbish tip... got rid of a whole lot of stuff cramping up our garage. Mikaela's old, old, very old BED. A really disgusting old couch and a few bags of ... crap, old coat hangers etc etc. Now our garage is sparkly again. I like order.

Tomorrow ... another sleep in! French toast and maybe some scrapping... or more cleaning? I dunno, I mean it is not even spring here... but I have the fever. The cleaning fever. Seriously. I love clean and simple lines. If I have not used something in a year... it has to GO... GO GO GO! Then we only have what we DO need and DO use.. and nothing that we dont!

Its all great.
Srap... clean... whatever!

Oh and another exciting thing I discovered... Cathy Z has her blog up and running again, has done for 3 months!!! 3 months..... WHERE IS MY HEAD??? First the not knowing about wooden coat hangers being as cheap as chips {good quality ones too}!! THEN this. Sheez!

(hugs) and love out...
