No-bake Lime Jelly Mascarpone Cheesecake (the not fully-chilled slice)
The kids wanted to eat jelly. I decided to set aside a bit of it to make a No-bake Lime Jelly Mascarpone Cheesecake. I have a 500ml pot of mascarpone in the fridge as well as an opened packet of digestive biscuits. This looked like a great way to clear up stock.
The dining area
The BBQ
Kid's play area
Didn't last long. It started to rain last night and there was a huge howling windstorm that lasted through the night, only stopping around 10am this morning (but there's still some wind now). Half of the things outside was blown away and one of my cactuses was overturned. Our house stands alone in a big open field - so we're vulnerable to wind storms. The Babies were scared and came to sleep with us - a pity as I usually sleep best when I have a storm brewing outside.
With some fresh and ripe organic kiwis

The biscuit base
It was almost like Summer yesterday and I busied myself by cleaning the children's slides and toy house, checking the huge trampoline, preparing the roses and cactuses, cleaning the BBQ and garden furniture...The gardeners have passed by 2 days ago to mow the lawn so everything is neat. We even ate dinner outside last evening.

We (meaning Baby Girl and I) couldn't wait and took it out after just 2-3 hours and it was still a little soft. But it was yummy anyway :-).
