It’s challenge day and I’m up early preparing the pork. I’m making the Slow Roasted Shoulder of Pork with Carrots and Crackling from Pete Evans’ My Kitchen Cookbook. I was really meant to do this last night but our “come over for a couple of quiet drinks” got a…

So….. we’re having Sunday Dinner tomorrow night with 6 friends. (I’m making Pete Evan’s Roast Pork Shoulder from his My Kitchen cookbook- FYI). But the question is– what to make for dessert? Excuse me, sorry- what dairy free treat can I make for dessert? As it turns out, most…

So lacking the rigor and structure and schedule of a full time job, I sort of neglected to actually remember to invite anyone over for dinner tonight. We did issue a couple of last minute invitations this afternoon in Coogee but sadly no takers. Oh well…. This week’s dinner is…

It was 39 degrees in Sydney today and walking home from the bus stop, I finally worked out what I’ve missed most in the last 10 days…. Ice Cream. Ice Cream is the single reason that no matter what science or a doctor tells me, I will never, ever, ever…

So, I’m nearly done with my 30 day Gluten free challenge and to be honest I haven’t done THAT badly! I’ve had one full on cheat day (for Charity) and other than discovering that the muesli I ate had gluten in it, I really haven’t had to change my diet…

Wow! I can’t believe it’s been a year since I started this blog– and what a crazy, crazy, crazy crazy year it’s been. There have been the highest highs ever and the lowest low I could imagine but somehow we both survived (me and the blog!) So much has changed…

So today was our Company’s annual charity day- Talent Day and it was an absolute blast! Every year our company spends a day working in the community to help people in need and every year it’s a fantastic day out! This year was by far my favourite though—we did Cook…

“This is easy so far,” she says with a slightly overly optimistic laugh. And it is– or has been easy so far. I always knew that going Gluten Free would be one of the easier 30 days of this set of challenges. I’ve been trying to stick with a low…
