Next up in my 2014 Holiday Gift Guide series… ideas to make any hostess smile. Some people entertain with ease, others love hosting but can never quite relax. Either way, a thoughtful hostess gift is a simple way to say "thank you for the invite, we're so glad we could be here". While any of these gifts would make the recipient smile as-is, an extra little something (say a cake in the dome or a bouquet in the jug) is the perfect way to add an extra personal touch. ** In an effort to support … [Read more...]
Let’s Brunch Holiday Gift Guide 2014
Next up in my 2014 Holiday Gift Guide series… ideas for the brunch-addict in your life. My obsession with brunch is well documented so it's only fitting that my second gift guide was assembled with a singular focus on the best meal of the day. Anything (ok everything) on this list would make me quite happy on Christmas morning but it's the waffle maker, followed by the Tea-iere, that I'm really coveting. Of course those plates would make fine props... 1 Stoneware 12-Cup Egg Tray by Rachael … [Read more...]
In My Kitchen: December 2014
It’s once again time for In My Kitchen and as per usual this is a collection of things from the past month — as seen over on Instagram — in loosely interpreted categories and no particular order. As always I’m linking up with Celia for IMK. ------ Kitchen Shenanigans It has been a bit of a slow month (at least compared to the usual influx of stuff that seems to pass through) but there has certainly been pumpkin, lots and lots of roasted pumpkin. Mainly for pie, and then mini-pies, and … [Read more...]
Socially Conscious Holiday Gift Guide 2014
First up in my 2014 Holiday Gift Guide series... ideas for the socially conscious consumer. Buying gifts this year may as well put a smile on the faces of small farmers and producers, people in developing nations, domestic homeless, and indigenous groups -- as well as the recipient of your thoughtful gift. Hopefully you'll come away from the experience feeling a bit more festive as well. 1. Oxfam Unwrapped | Oxfam is a world-wide development organisation that provides people with the skills … [Read more...]
In My Kitchen: November 2014
It’s once again time for In My Kitchen and as per usual this is a collection of things from the past month — as seen over on Instagram — in loosely interpreted categories and no particular order. As always I’m linking up with Celia for IMK. ------ Kitchen Shenanigans Keeping myself amused with stripy kitchen string while brownies cool enough for their Christmas shoot... ------ All the green things from the crisper (parsley/coriander/mint/kale/rocket/spinach), end of the road … [Read more...]
In My Kitchen: October 2014
It’s once again time for In My Kitchen and as per usual this is a collection of things from the past month — as seen over on Instagram — in loosely interpreted categories and no particular order. As always I’m linking up with Celia for IMK. ------ Kitchen Shenanigans I've been a bit tied up with work lately (hence it being quiet on the blog front) and the other day I finished one of the bigger projects. At least the props have been earning their keep! There wasn't a single overhead shot in … [Read more...]
In My Kitchen: September 2014
It’s once again time for In My Kitchen and as per usual this is a collection of things from the past month — as seen over on Instagram — in loosely interpreted categories and no particular order. As always I’m linking up with Celia for IMK and this month is overrun with goodies experienced on or picked up during my trip earlier this month. I suggest you make a cup of tea for this -- go on, I'll wait -- it's a big one, full of mini-rants and a severe (probably inappropriate) over-use of … [Read more...]
