As you read this RJ and I are practicing our extraordinarily poor Spanish on the unsuspecting population of Buenos Aires, and in a few days will be setting off to hike the Inca Trail. Conveniently, Katherine Martinelli is here with a gorgeous granola to keep you well fed! I've admired Katherine's blog for ages and regularly link-up in her weekly blog hops. We had hoped to meet in person in NYC this year during both our trips home but schedules didn't quite synch-up. So instead, she's here to … [Read more...]
Good Food & Wine 2012 – Sydney
Just in time for the Adelaide Good Food & Wine Show I'm getting around to my [stunningly Instagramed] Sydney wrap up, how very convenient! It's no secret I love a good food event, so I was chuffed when I was contacted by Chobani asking if I would like tickets to the 2012 Sydney Good Food & Wine Show. Having never attended, I was eager to go this year and as such had already entered into a Facebook contest for a double pass from Australian Good Taste Magazine – but really who ever wins … [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...]
Cosmopolitan Cranberry Lime Cupcakes
I was a teenager in the 90's and embraced - as you do - all the trends that came along with that oddity of a decade. The first few years were an 80's hangover with side pony-tails, layered colour blocking, boxy crop tops and atrocious floral prints... you know, about what the runways and chain stores are flogging right now. I am currently refusing to shop anywhere that resembles the inside of my closet 20 or so years ago. Step away from the neon, step away. Then came grunge - the biggest … [Read more...]
Noosa International Food & Wine 2012 – Part 2 of 3
I know, I know, Part 1 was a bit of a tease... some travel, a few treats but not too much of the food from the Noosa International Food & Wine Festival - so very unfair of me! Well then, lets get to it with some of the notable dishes from the Food & Wine Kiosks and a few of the Demos. So much tasting happened on Saturday in The Grand Marquee we didn't partake in too many of the plates on offer at the Kiosks - and the meaty ones RJ ate escaped my camera lens - but these are the ones … [Read more...]
Noosa International Food & Wine 2012 – Part 1 of 3
I love a good food festival so when I saw that the Noosa International Food & Wine Festival was being held over the weekend of my birthday it was a great excuse for RJ and I to get away for a few days. Before I get into the pics however, a bit about NIFW12... with events spanning from Thursday evening to Sunday night, there are a few parts to this festival. Food & Wine Kiosks: local restaurants, chefs and celebrities serving up one or two dishes and wineries pouring glasses of … [Read more...]
SABH May: What’s Your Cup of Tea?
Tea is a powerful thing. It is served up as the cure for all that ails you - from a broken heart to a broken finger. It's had stories written about it and ceremonies created in its name. The taxation of it incited a revolution and changed the course of a country, and the most expensive version of it costs about as much by weight as gold. After water it is the most consumed drink on the planet. Tea refers both to the plant of the Camellia Sinesis family as well as the beverage made from … [Read more...]
