Category: Something to Eat - Delicious, Nourishing Anzacs
I thank my wonderful cousin Anna for this recipe.
We grew up and went to school together although she was born in January and I was born in December so we were essentially 1 year apart.
I always felt younger, and slower and never quite 'enough' next to her. She was super sporty and good at absolutely everything. As a child I found this hard. As an adult I am proud of her. Although our relationship was never easy growing up but there is comfort in our shared history.
Now time has passed and we are both adults and 11 months fades into nothingness.
We both love to cook. We have more similarities between us now than differences. I love walking into her house and smelling her amazing creations and chatting about our past and about our future.
She made this for our visit today and I thought they were lovely so asked her if I could share with you all.
I hope you enjoy them -
Lest we forget our history.
