rhubarb cream scones

Sunday mornings are meant for fresh scones and in the spring and summer months, those scones should be filled with rhubarb – an unsung hero, that I too had written off as a boring, tart, weed.  Until last year when I decided to explore it a little more and discovered a whole world of wonders: this tart and cocktail in particular.  And just as I re-discovered it, so many others have too, rhubarb is finally having it’s moment!

I must admit quiche isn’t a dish I make or order often.  But when hosting family and friends for brunch, it’s the perfect dish to serve.  It can be made ahead of time, can feed a large group and is just as delicious fresh out of the oven as it is at room temperature.  And friends, this Mushroom and Shallot Quiche is divine, the perfect decadent treat for your loved ones.

And truthfully, it’s usually days (or moments) before entertaining outside that my space really comes together! However this year, I have to say, I was very well prepared. We recently got our patio redone so I spent a while looking at flagstones from Westminster Stone. Once I decided which slabs I wanted, I called some local builders and it was done within a couple of days! Unfortunately, I’m not usually this well prepared! So, if like me you’re in a rush to get your space together in time for the July long weekend, I’ve put together three simple, yet distinct looks to help you create the perfect patio. However, instead of rushing like this to prepare your patio, you could always consider contacting a company that can install folding arm awnings in Sydney or somewhere closer to where you live. This will ensure that your patio is ready throughout all weather conditions, meaning that you don’t have to worry about getting it ready every time the sun comes out. Having said this, patios do need maintenance and unfortunately, cracks can start to appear. Don’t worry; this is easily repaired by Action Home Services through their interlock repair service. You’ll have your patio look as good as new!
