wake up late, lie in bed listening to the chatter downstairs and smelling the fresh baked muffins put on fleece pants hang around, eat muffins, drink tea change from old sleeping t-shirt into old daytime t-shirt, begrudgingly change out of fleece pants for slightly more acceptable cargos do not put on makeup take pictures of farm, eat grapes off vines, wander around in barn, cook a bit, hang around fend off advances of grandmother bearing more muffins, drink tea chat … [Read more...]
2012 Trip’n: First up – Portland
We are a week and a half into our trip and I was once again far too ambitious in my 'I'll just do it on the road' planning. As such, there has been little other than one delicious soup round these parts lately. That said, the relative tranquility [neglect, sorry] is solely due to the fact that RJ and I have been traipsing around the Pacific Northwest, taking Portland by storm and eating as much as possible along the way. Here's a taste of what we've been up to once we landed in LA and hopped on … [Read more...]
Fluffy Blueberry & Spelt Vegan Pancakes
No matter how beautiful the view, it is always difficult living somewhere that is at least a 24hr trip away from family and friends. But it is always a bit more, obvious, when there's happy news, difficult times, special occasions and holidays which would otherwise be spent with those who are far away. Now on this weekend in many cities around the globe there are fun runs for Mother's Day. Sydney has the MDC each year and RJ and I have done it off and on over time, but growing up my family … [Read more...]
Eat Immediately Apple Bircher Muesli
I might be a little bit obsessed with apples. As much as I love summer fruit - peaches and mangos and plums oh my - I do mourn the brief break in the apple season. Yes, of course you can get them year round in the big chain grocery stores but when stone fruit is ripe for the picking the apple trees are just starting to bloom again... draw your own conclusions... Apple season just launched again here and this will be the first full season Australian growers are using 'Aussie Apples' … [Read more...]
Bread & Circus Wholefoods Canteen – Sydney
Through an inner-city industrial area, across the road from Dan Murphy's and in the shadow of a big green street sign, at the back of a reclaimed brick warehouse, just past the Campos coffee you'll find a new(ish) face on the Sydney food scene. But don't get caught calling them a 'cafe' [gasp], Bread & Circus Wholefoods Canteen is a fresh, open space tucked away on the western edge of Alexandria, serving - in their own words - 'amazing tea, mostly organic and biodynamic food and sweet … [Read more...]
Wild Food Cafe – Bowral
When we headed to the Southern Highlands recently I had quite a time finding any cafe reviews for great breakfasts in Bowral. I scoured the internets for at least 20 minutes during the car ride down and came up reasonably empty handed *insert eye-roll here* so we were on our own to navigate the main streets in search of food. We finally made it to Wild Food Cafe on Sunday morning before heading out of town. After Friday night's stunning dinner, we had a few false starts and encounters … [Read more...]
Sour Cherry, Orange and Earl Grey Hot Cross Buns
If you've stopped by in the hopes of finding the standard Easter spring flowers and bunny rabbits and church bonnets and pretty, pretty candy covered chocolate eggs - you're at the wrong place. If you've been here before you won't be surprised that there's not a pastel argyle jumper in sight. But Easter is just a few days away so it's only logical that I share an Easter recipe. Now I could claim that I'm being all 'lets plan ahead like a proper food blogger and make something for a holiday … [Read more...]
