If I had an oven
I would bake a pavlova. And it would be covered in passionfruit and strawberries.
Homesick? Me? Don’t know what you’re talking about.

Eric Luper Says:
Pavlovas? pavlovas? are you kidding me? black and white cookies are by FAR the best! You can keep your pavlova. I’m a black and white cookie guy all the way.
although, we do not need to do a poll about this one. I’d hate to embarrass you.
which gives me an idea for a great and original children’s book:
if you give a jerboa a black and white cookie.
it’ll sell millions!

mmm. pavlova. much niceer than quokkas, which are kinda ugly in the flesh, should you ever got to rottnest island where they live. the dutch didn’t call it ‘rat’s nest island’ for nothing. still. mmm. pavlova.

oooooh!

ooh .. pavlova, with passionfruits and everything. That’s a good idea. You should run this “Justine suggests a recipe” section more often. Now I know what I’m making tomorrow night.

Niki: Last time I had pav was in May; last time I was back home.
Jonathan: Oh, hush your mouth. I have seen quokkas in the flesh. They’re fabulous.
Liset: Is your google broken?
Diana: You know what pav is? That’s very odd!

MooseGuy Says:
pavlova should always have peppermint crisp chocolate on top, or a similar item. ALWAYS. fruit is for the weak!

Diana Says:
Justine, of course I do! I spent a Xmas in NZ, where all anyone would talk about was the great “is it aussie or is it kiwi” Pavlova debate. I ate SO MUCH pavlova… it’s the most delicious holiday dessert of all time!

goggled-shamed…
-_-
wiki wiki wikipedia!
apparently pavlova is named after a ballerina,
thats kinda cool,
and it looks yummy,
kinda like a flan thingy.
but the passionfruit looks gross…

all over this la-a-and (oooh-woo-ooh-ooh).

yay wikipedia! pavlovas look really yummy. i want one.
and i’ve tried passion fruit once. it’s pretty awesome.
but i have to say, straight-from-the-oven hot chocalate chip cookies beat pavlovas and black-and-white cookies.
