I don't believe in feeling guilty about eating dessert. A slice of cake or scoop of ice cream or stack of cookies should bring a smile to your face not a grimace or bad feelings. However I understand that the guilt felt by many about overeating sweets is not aimed at the sheer pleasure of the act, but the ingredients contained within the treat - or the physiological result of the activity. Sugar highs and crashes, tummy troubles and far too many bad calories are forever associated with … [Read more...]
WIN Tickets to Taste of Sydney 2013!
You know I love a good food festival and Taste of Sydney is a great one. Set in Sydney's Centennial Park there is an impressive roster of some of the best restaurants in Sydney each serving up two to three signature dishes.

In My Kitchen – February 2013
Here we are halfway through another month and it's time for me to share a bit of what is happening round these parts for Celia’s ‘In My Kitchen’ February linkup... In my kitchen this February: Remember how back in December I burnt out the motor on my food chopper trying to make nut butter? Well I finally pulled our old one out of a storage bin in the garage. I scored this beauty about a decade ago from St Vinnies for something like $20. At the time I was on a work-not-allowed visa, … [Read more...]
Fig, Fetta, Tahini & Thyme – an Almost Recipe
I don't create recipes the same way I post them. I think in arrows and chicken scratch and abbreviations. I have to make sure I write down oven temps and final cooking times and recipe titles or I'd end up with a pile of papers containing a list of ingredients and little else. But some things just don't need proper recipes or quantities or detailed instructions. A quick photo, a few simple ingredients and maybe a note or two will suffice. As I regularly post dishes on Facebook via … [Read more...]
