I am not sure where the months have gone, but they have flown by at a rapid rate of knots. We are creeping closer and closer to Christmas and yet winter refuses to leave us. The one and only hot day we had in September, Dave and I spent in the car driving from Port Elizabeth to Port Beaufort. We went to watch the whales and spend a night at the mouth of the Breede River. Without further ado, let me showcasing October 2012.
in my kitchen ….
is a packet of coffee beans that are going to be used in a unique way soon!

in my kitchen ….
is a veggie peeler and can opener which I won from Kitchen Aid

in my kitchen ….
is my birthday present from my sister. This is one amazing whisk – I have a steel one – and decided I needed a silicone one for my scrambled eggs

in my kitchen ….
are white radishes from my garden. I picked these few to see how they taste and so far I have cut some up and added them to a broth

in my kitchen ….
and made them into pickles using Claire’s recipe

What is in your kitchen in October 2012?
I am submitting this post to IMK hosted by Celia of Fig Jam And Lime Cordial.
What I blogged:
- one year ago – carom seed curry
- two years ago – marshmallow mouse
Your KitchenAid is growing nicely Tandy. Looking forward to what you do with the coffee.
🙂 Mandy
I have to go shopping still!
Tandy, can’t wait to see what you do with the coffee beans! I love those little plate whisks – I have two, but not a silicone one (which would be very useful for non-stick pans). Your radishes look very fine indeed! Thanks for the peek into your kitchen! 🙂
I got my steel one in Australia and the silicone one here – they are super fantastic 🙂
Very cool whisk and extremely posh KitchenAid tools:)
the whisk is amazing!
Hello Tandy…. I love those pickled white radishes. Dint know kitchen aid made those utensils. looking forward to your coffee recipe
Hi there, and thanks for the visit! I really must get the shopping done for the coffee recipe 🙂
Home made pickled radishes using radishes from your garden must be absolutely delicious Tandy!
They are! wish I could send you a jar 🙂
New kitchen gadgets are always so much fun!
indeed, but I am running out of space 🙂
Loving the look of those coffee beams my friend 😉
Cheers

A nice assortment, Tandy. Love the colour of your new whisk. 🙂 Enjoy experimenting with the coffee. I look forward to the recipe. 🙂
It must feel so satisfying to pick radishes from your garden and then to pickle them. They look wonderful too.
Dear Tandy, have you changed the banner photo? Love it! So pretty. I start my day with a fine cup of coffee, so am glad to see you have some good coffee in your kitchen. The radishes look delicious. Kathryn Elliot recently posted some pics or a recipe using black radishes. They look stunning in a salad. Love your pickles. ; D
Hi Lizzy, yes, I did a new banner photo and thank you for the compliment. I am off to search for Kathryn Elliot now – have a super day 🙂
I love those lavender and lime cheesecake photos…stunning…You have to have good peelers in a kitchen..I brought back 2 from SA
I have quite a nice collection now of peelers, and yet I rarely peel my veggies 🙂
that whisk looks great and I am very interested in the kitchen aid vegie peelers – mine keep breaking on me lately
That is so frustrating! Especially when you are in the middle of cooking 🙂
Your kitchen always has such lovely things in it, Tandy….I do love that new header, by the way! Just beautiful!
Now: why do eggs ned a silicone whisk?
thank you Kate. The silicone whisk is so that I can whisk my scrambled eggs in the frying pan as I am cooking them – I have a coated pan which does not take too well to steel 🙂
Hi Tandt, Love all your new goodies in the kitchen and those radishes do look divine. Thanks for sharing
my pleasure Usha 🙂
I always enjoy these posts of you, Tandy!
Thanks Zirkie 🙂
Always like a peep in your kitchen Tandy
Thank you for your to visit Sally 🙂
