So, what are people planning for 'Straya/Invasion Day? Anyone care to meet for lamingtons, pavlova and a lamb sandwich? Celebrating with Kiwi creations? *throws a pavlova and runs away*

Celebrating with Kiwi creations? *throws a pavlova and runs away* Just you wait until australians discover the feijoa. It's only a matter of time before we make a national dessert from them. ETA - it's already begun!

Are they like chokos? If so, I don't think we need to be absonding with that kiwi treasure.

I have a feijoa tree in my backyard, theyre divine. They taste like a smell..if that makes sense - theyre very very 'scenty', and yet if you hold your nose theres not a lot of flavour. Great to mix with apple though.
And there is no greater alcohol than 42Below's feijoa vodka - its amazing. If a bar near you stocks it, get a shot and have a sniff of it. SOOOOO good! Feijoa wine is delicious too, but one glass knocks me on my ass pretty easily.

Oh man, I'm laughing hysterically over here because I'm having such a flashback. Some friends and I once decided it would be a good idea to make sangria using Feijoa wine. It makes for some mighty tasty stuff, just so you know, but you have GOT to be careful. You think a glass will knock you on your ass; when it's mixed with fruits and some juice, and you can't taste the alcohol, it will sneak up on you like nobody's bloody business. Good times, good times...although the hangover I had the next day wasn't very fun.
And I love pavlovas! They're great for when you're trying to watch your girlish figure. The lamb I'll skip though.

I thought it was the mainly the PM who decided Aussie of the Year. Obviously not. Love how as always Howard just brushes off any criticism.
Has Young Aussie of the Year been announced? I always like being reminded that I could be doing more with my life.
Hope y'all are having a great Australia/Invasion Day.
