This is my last day in Kyneton and to my horror yesterday I left my camera behind and saw the most wonderful, enchanting, send-me into euphoria Victorian houses that are still being lived in and looked after.n I have never seen anything like them anywhere. 

A sewing Kit using a porcelain half-doll:

Very pretty variegated chiffon-type ribbon in back, pockets for sewing accessories, skirt is stuffed to make a pincushion, with a cardboard circle in it for sitting.

Last night we enjoyed these chicken fillets and parsley potatoes.  The fillets are pounded flat and dredged in breadcrumbs, then cooked in oil and served with Hollandaise sauce.

Parsley and onions are sautéed and then mixed in to boiled potatoes.
