I enjoy reading food blogs and trying new recipes. I’m constantly surprised at how easy it is in fact to make something. I would have been too intimidated to make it in the past but food blogs demystifies things for me. Food blogs, I’m eternally grateful. G. and I were having a discussion last Saturday about how [...]
Happy April Folks! I hope this month will be a happier month for everyone. I’d falsely believed that spring was here until a local guide told me that it’s going to be a long winter this year. Aw boo! Here I was ready to celebrate. No matter, I’ve got some goodies to chase the winter [...]
Have you seen or heard of the Umbilical Brothers? HOoooly Gabooshes, they are AWESOME! We came home from watching Hello Dolly the musical (another awesome production) and found The Umbilical Brothers on. You have to watch them live or on DVD when you get the chance.

I sighed after it. I lovingly gazed at it. I thought it was perfect from crust to the pointy tips of [...]
This is the dessert I made when G’s uncle came to visit. The citrus pudding was a great way to end dinner after a hearty meaty meatloaf. On a totally unrelated matter, my best friend got married last Saturday. Carrie and I have known each other for half our lives. But it’s not just about [...]

My dearest Chocolate Cake, I can’t believe you’re gone. Our meeting was so sweet and yet, all too brief. You were so beautiful. Our courtship was intense, passionate and sprinkled with a hint of nuttiness. You were special – you are special. We will meet again. Another time. Another place. Blog this!

We’ve been going to the farmers markets three weeks in a row now. First Caulfied, then Boroondara and now Ballarat. You can’t keep me away from markets. Slow food is in my genes. Blog this!
