Face my fears

So I finally decided to face my fears and make some mini pavlovas. Now I don't know why, but I have always been nervous about being able to whip up egg whites to the right consistency, so have never attempted pavlova or meringues.
BUT... They are so easy.. well I guess with the right equipment. I have a standing mixer which I am sure makes it 100% easier. I used a recipe from best recipes and for my first attempt I was so impressed. They are delicious. I might put a picture up later if I can get a good one.

I also made some playdough as a christmas present for a friend's little boy. NOTE to self: next time wear gloved when kneading in the food dye. Stained nails and hands do not look nice to anyone. But also the playdough turned out good. I am hoping for a hat trick today though and am about to try another new recipe I haven't used before. Special K banana muffins :)
