I've always had an artificial Christmas tree but must be amazing to have a real one!
So last week we went to Dural Christmas Tree Farm in Dural. You get to choose and hand-pick your own perfectly shaped fresh tree from the farm! So exciting!

Christmas in Australia differs dramatically from most countries around the world because it falls in the summer. An Aussie Christmas is filled with blue skies and sunshine and just isn't complete without seafood.
Crispy Chorizo and Potato Salad
Cherry and Almond Pavlova
Pork and Apple Sage Rib Rack
Pork Scotch with Salt Sprinkle
Prawn Salad with Bread Sticks
Fresh Oysters with Soy and Mirin Sauce
Ingredients
olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 stalks spring onions, chopped,

balsamic vinegar
juice of 1 lemon
salt and pepper
Method
* Heat olive oil in large pan and gently cook garlic, spring onions, fennel and parsley.
