Since I’ve started writing this blog I’ve had a growing number of people contact me letting me know that they’ve cooked one of the dishes I’ve made. This gives me so much satisfaction and keeps me motivated to continue to share what I’m cooking. That’s what it’s all about. If I can post a recipe […]
“I’ll slip another shrimp on the barbie for ya”, promises a young Paul Hogan in the 1984 Australian tourism ad designed to get American tourists to visit our remarkable ‘land down under’. Before this iconic campaign, Australia ranked number 78 on the most ‘desireable holiday hotspots’ in the States; which climbed to number 7 shortly after […]
The girls’ friends, Ella and Harry have just left our place. We’ve had a busy morning in the kitchen making some bunny biccies and these sweet little bird’s nests. Shrek is on telly, the weekend is nearly here and we’re off to dinner tonight as soon as Cork Daddy walks in the door. How good! […]

We hosted a brunch party for our darling Charlotte’s 4th birthday on the weekend. I had been looking to cook something a little different for the adults for ages; something they wouldn’t of had before (and something I hadn’t made before). It’s the same old argument. Do you cook something new when people come over […]
Anyone need some tips for jazzing up their weekly breakies or need some inspo for the weekend when you have friends staying over? With the Easter long weekend on our doorstep you are bound to find something below that will help you create a special ‘hot breakfast’ for your guests. A good breakie at home […]
I love a good canapé/ pre dinner drinks combo for a Saturday night at home. Invite some friends around, make sure you have a bag of ice in the freezer, some drinks in the fridge and something to snack on. These tuna bites are SO easy to make and are great for taking to someones […]
