No, this isn't the first line of a pathetic '<a href="http://www.daniel-moore.com.au/writing/frankie/full-articles/issue-31.html">Dad Joke</a>', this is for reals. Meteorologists are claiming we are going to get 6 inches of snow from Friday night - Saturday morn, which means one of two things. 1. It won't snow at all, or 2. It will be so bad I won't even be able to open my front door. I'm hoping for the latter as I sorta fancy a chance to re watch the Lost Season 6 premiere and scream/laugh/convulse at the appropriate moments all over again.

As for the eats? I was very very pleased to be led in the direction of foodie blog <a href="http://www.trotski-ash.com">trotski &amp; ash</a>. An offering from two Aussies, designer and stylist Sarah Trotter who cooks up the treats, and writer Romy Ash who writes the most perfect prose surrounding said treats. I highly, HIGHLY reccomend you read through every single recipe on Sarah and Romy's blog, it will make you feel so so happy. As for me, I want to try this lovely goodness this weekend:

<em>Baked Eggs</em>

Eggs baked (!) in a lovely seasoned tomato sauce..I anticipate them now, with the runny 'yolky' middle - something I savoured as a child - still do! Dipping in crunchy toasted wholewheat bread..the bread tips emerging a sunshiny yellow-orange..yum. Check out the recipe <a href="http://www.trotski-ash.com/2009/05/recipes/baked-eggs/">here</a>.

<em>Brown Sugar Biscuits</em>

Maybe, just maybe I will also make some <a href="http://www.trotski-ash.com/2009/07/recipes/brown-sugar-biscuits/">biscuits</a>. Because who doesn't love the smell of warm biccies in the oven? Or a nice soggy fresh biscuit after dipping it in ones cup of tea?  Anyone else got any cooking plans this weekend?
