However this all does seem so trivial after the devastation of the Christchurch Earthquake that hit on Tuesday lunchtime, although I'm not directly affected by the quake as we are in New Plymouth which is the North Island of New Zealand and Christchurch is in the South Island I just feel so so sad for all the people affected, I was teary all day on Tuesday in utter disbelief watching the news and just can't believe how bad it is.

  3. Quick question if you don't mind? Is the hollandaise sauce you use store bought or home made? If home made do you have a recipe? Thanks!

  4. Hi DollyFinn, the hollandaise I use is home made, it's just 2 egg yolks in a blender with some salt, pepper and 1 Tbsp White wine Vinegar, that needs to blend for a couple of minutes then melt 100gms butter and slowly pour the butter in, then it will start to thicken, it's really easy to screw it up tho :)
