Art and food



Finn chose for us to go to the Japanese Gardens at the Botanical Gardens for lunch on the last Friday of the school holidays and then we headed back out to MONA. We revisited most of Finn's favourites and managed to be in the right place for the 2pm "production". We went down the cool, dark tunnel to the new library. Finn lounged in a beanbag and leafed through some art books he'd found to his liking. He wondered why the piece in the pavilion had glass all around it - "is it to stop people going in there, do you think?"

Finn wanted to cook over the weekend. Saturday he made Florentine Tartlets with Frangipane and had enough pastry to fill with Chocolate Ganache from this recipe for the next night.

Mark found the perfect grill rack for the Jamie Durie firepot and cooked steak on Saturday, then followed up with sushi for himself on Sunday.

  1. You've done well with the boys spoiling you with all that good food. The lead books is about my favourite exhibit at MONA. That and the bit fall.
