Pineapple Rice Cream

Australia Women's Weekly Recipe Card Library

 Facebook to the rescue.

Some people frown on Facebook but boy 'o boy when you need it it's always there for you.

We have rather flexable Christmas traditions but one I've enjoyed over the years is a Pineapple Rice Cream that my wife made for us many years ago and it went over quite a hit.

The recipe she used was from the Australia Women's Weekly Recipe Card Library.

 So it was made every other year or so until the recipe was lost or misplaced.

 And so with Christmas coming up I became nostalgic for another taste of Pineapple Rice Cream.

Anyway couldn't find the recipe anywhere in the house, searched the interweb from the top down. Nothing but a few photos and glib references, but, nothing.

My wife, who knows little of how the interweb works, pipes up and says why don't I ask on Facebook.

Now why didn't I think of that.

Put up a description, ask the question and, ta-da, a friends mother in Victoria had them in the pantry. A quick photo and I'm back in business.

Cheers and Merry Christmas

Two posts From One.

I was doodling around the blogersphere last night when I came across a blog called Canaan Farm.

Nothing unusual about that except for me, being a big Facebook-er, I was instantly taken by 'the look' of their blog. Upon further reading I discovered that they Post onto their facebook page and somehow it magically appears on their blogin tact as a facebook post. Wow, I thought, I want that too.

So now I'm totally intrigued and need to know how this magic happens. I got in touch through their Canaan Farm facebook page, where all their post now originate from and received the magic instructions as follows, 'I open both fb and blogger at the same time...after I have made a post on fb I click the picture and down the bottom I click options then embed post ..then I copy and paste the code into the blogger post and publish..its really quick and easy.' And it was, easy that is, what you see below is my first attempt using a post from the My Veggie Garden facebook page a few days ago.

While your here why not slip across to the Canaan Farm facebook page and give them a like.
