A Taste of Harmony

Last week was Harmony Week but I pretty well missed it. Meg attended Harmony Day at her regional office. In keeping with the spirit of the day, each person was asked to provide a dish from a country other than Australia. As (female) Gibbons type people are sometimes wont to do, she totally embraced the request and overdid it by taking dishes from THREE countries - and also made the dish that her work colleague provided the ingredients for. There was sushi for JAPAN - teriyaki chicken/carrot/avocado and salmon/carrot/avocado.

Sushi making sometimes gets messy :) The rice is inclined to end up everywhere.
Macarons, representing FRANCE.

Under the alfoil are the Thai Chicken Mince Balls - yes, THAILAND. Megan could have made twice as many and it still wouldn't have been enough. She got a lot of requests for this recipe. It's always a crowd pleaser.Then there was the layered dip for MEXICO.


It was quite a morning. Then we both went to work.

Yum, yum, yum!
I think the Thai Chicken Meatballs deserve a post all their own. I would love the recipe.
And I have to try those macarons.
(Have to get through these 21 days first)!
