Melon with Rosewater Yoghurt
This is a beautiful Breakfast alternative for those warm summer mornings. Just be careful of the rosewater in the yoghurt. It can really HIT you!
Also, I didn't have any pistachios as the recipe calls for, so I toasted some cashews then added some honey right at the end so they caramelised a little. B-e-a-utiful!
Really simple. Completely in the style of Donna Hay. Just beautiful food.

Yoghurt and Passionfruit Syrup Cake
The thing I really liked about this cake was that it's made from things I generally already have in the kitchen. I love yoghurt in baking and how light it makes the final product, so was eager to try this cake out.
Loved it. And I really like that it can act as a base for a lot of different flavours. Like the passionfruit syrup.
In all honesty, I'm not a big fan of passionfruit (don't shoot me!). It makes my eyes cringe and my face squint up like I'm sucking on a lemon. I did make the syrup and was pleased with how the sweetness removed the cringe-factor from the fruit, but it made me think of other possibilities for this cake. A strawberry or raspberry syrup, even a mango one would work well.
Or if you're going to be completely indulgent, a chocolate syrup. With a little hazelnut liquor. Mmmm....
Sorry, no photo. I was too slack that week.
