vanilla cupcakes

This is the same recipe that I used to make with Mim at the farm in school holidays. They were my Pa’s favourite. We’d always make a double batch as they’d disappear pretty quickly, that’s for sure. Such beautiful, happy memories to cherish forever. I make these with my girls all the time and they […]

charlotte’s chocolate cupcakes

You’ve heard of the saying “the dog ate my homework”. In this case, it’s more like “the dog ate my cupcakes”. Blue Dog ate the entire tray of Charlotte’s chocolate cupcakes! Blue. Dog! Oh, and it gets worse. Not only did he pinch the cupcakes, but also gone was a whole loaf of freshly baked […]

good old fashioned rock cakes

Nee remembers making rock cakes in her very first home economics class back in highschool (just a couple of years ago) and I have very fond memories helping Mim make these every school holidays at the farm. Pa loved them and so did I; just as long as I could pick out the sultanas. These […]

mum’s coconut slice

Meemar’s famous coconut slice. I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve watched Mum make this over the years. It’s a terrific morning or afternoon tea option with a steaming hot cuppa. Why not make the slice this weekend and invite some friends “around for tea”? Sounds very Downton Abbey doesn’t it? Either that […]

ALDI. There are loads of people who love to shop at Aldi. Drawn to the bargains, they’re convinced they’re saving money by choosing Aldi over say Woollies or Coles. Yet I always think I come out of there spending more money than I would of if I shopped at another supermarket. This is due to […]

easy + moist chocolate cake | the perfect cake for kids to make

If you follow Lo’s Kitchen, I’m sure you’re now used to seeing pics of food taken on our big old kitchen table. Looking closely, you would of noticed how ridiculously marked this much loved table is. It’s covered in paint (from our many messy craft sessions) and has so much flour caked in to the […]

butterfly cakes | with jam + whipped cream

Mum’s butterfly cakes sat in pride of place at every birthday party we ever had growing up. I have lots of memories making these too when I’d go out to Mim and Pa’s farm in the school holidays. My job was always to line the muffin tins with the patty cases and as the years […]

i remember not long out of school going to a friends place for dinner ~ new to the whole ‘cooking on my own’ thing, i decided it’d be cool to put my hand up, “i’ll bring the potato bake”
