Continue reading →: This is *NOT* a dinner party…
That’s what I keep telling myself. I tend to go a bit OTT with dinner parties- multiple courses, flowers, lovely table setting. I keep reminding myself that this is not a dinner party. I’m cooking a meal, for the blog, and people are coming over to help eat it. So…

Continue reading →: The word of the day is….. Hangover….and Lasagna!!!!!
So last night, The Runner and I lost the run of ourselves slightly. We spent the day on Sydney Harbour on a fancy dress boat party yesterday that turned into fancy dress drinking at the pub. The Runner and I aren’t old, stay at home boring fogies, but we sort…

Continue reading →: A recap of the week in the kitchen….
So after being extremely slack Monday by not making a thing for dinner, I redeemed myself on Tuesday evening and made TWO (2) TWO(!) dishes on Tuesday night. Well, actually it was three, but who’s counting. However, my kitchen exploits were not without some drama…. So I bowed to…

Even Though I am now which poses its own set of questions and challenges….. I’ve been on a wheat free, cows milk free, fun free detox for 6 weeks thanks to my naturopath. I’ll spare you the gory details of why, but let’s just say that I’m feeling a lot…
