After taking September off from the Secret Recipe Club while we ate our way across the US, I'm back with a bang and excited to explore all the lovely creations that appear each month. My SRC assignment for October was Baking and Creating with Avril and as usual I was spoilt for choice. I took to her side-bar tags for inspiration and the first thing to catch my eye was a Pumpkin Swirl Bread, however as I've been a bit heavy handed with the pumpkin lately I figured I'd simply bookmark it … [Read more...]
Grape & Rosemary Focaccia – Schiacciata Con l’Uva
The air is heady and sweet, greeting us as we turn into the driveway, painting our thoughts purple. It is the scent of bubblegum and ice blocks and lollies, the scent associated with most grape-flavoured childhood treats, yet not usually with real grapes. We stand in the middle of the wide green yard, taking in the vineyard's proud perfume for a moment before we wave absentmindedly back at the farmhouse and head for the leafy rows. Dodging dogs, skipping over patches of poison ivy … [Read more...]
Macadamia & Coconut Granola – gluten, dairy, fructose free
3 days. 3 days until we're sitting on an airplane headed to America-land. 3 days of blur. The past few weeks have flown by in a flurry of editing and technical-publishing-learning-as-I-go-blah-blah and food photography and art direction. It will continue up until the moment we leave, and quite possibly for a bit while we are away, and as a result the impending holiday is proving a bit more laced with stress than anticipation. Incidentally, any recommendations on things to do and places to … [Read more...]
Chai Spiced Snickerdoodles & a makeover, of course
I have no story to tell today. My head is full, but full of lists and need-to-dos and must-dos and should-dos. The lists squeeze the stories into a tiny room with little light and a window that seems to be painted shut. The stories bang on the door every now and then, demanding attention. I appease them with tea and cookies. I'm hoping I can appease you with the same. These cookies have been percolating in my head every since they were suggested by Jackie B over on this post as … [Read more...]
Gluten Free Quinoa Cornbread
I've been a touch quiet 'round internet-land these past few weeks but there's been lots happening in the background... A few Dining Out posts, a few events, and a whole lot of design / editing / food photography for a new extremely fast turn around project has meant that this is not only the first recipe post in two weeks but the first thing I've cooked and photographed for my own purposes since those Almond Croissant Makeover treats. Phew. Of course that meant I not only tackled one … [Read more...]
Bloom. The Healthy Food Co – Mosman, Sydney
The Mosman cafe scene has exploded over the past few months, and it's about time. The local options simply weren't up to scratch - other than one regular haunt for (fabulous) corn fritters - and as a result we were always heading over the bridge for brunch. So you can imagine my delight when, during a morning walk earlier this week, RJ looked up just in time to spot the newly opened Bloom cafe by The Healthy Food Co. We paused just long enough to scan the menu, finding no less than 10 … [Read more...]
Booth St Bistro – Annandale, Sydney
We all have them sitting somewhere in the draft folder - or perhaps just floating around our heads - the favourite little cafe, the go-to easy dinner recipe, the brilliant new cookbook or appliance or spice mix. The things that we should share but somehow always push aside to do some other day. Enter Booth St Bistro in Annandale, a regular on our weekend brunch rotation. I take photos every time we go with the intention to share it here, yet for some reason it always gets pushed to the … [Read more...]
