I was anxious on the way up, I hadn’t visited Wollangarra in 10 years. After working there in 2004, I visited only a handful of times and then other things became more important. I’d devoted a lot of my teenage life to the inspiring place, but at 23 I thought it was time to moveContinue reading “Wollangarra Words”

Chicken and Risoni Soup
The days may be getting longer but they are still cold. The winter wind whips through you as if you are made of fly screen and the cold fills your bones. I’m finding that a hearty bowl of soup at the end of the day to be one of the only things to remedy theContinue reading “Chicken and Risoni Soup”
Simple Dutch Baby Pancake Recipe
You might have noticed recently that I’ve become a little obsessed with the Dutch Baby pancake. I’d seen them around the internet for a long time, but I was honestly intimidated by it. They looked too cool for me to make and I didn’t have a cast iron skillet, so I brushed my Dutch BabyContinue reading “Simple Dutch Baby Pancake Recipe”
Mother’s Day
What a lovely day I had yesterday. A slow morning baking bread, out to buy some flowers and have a hot chocolate, then I spent the middle of the day baking cakes for an impromptu high tea at home for Mother’s Day. We were just going to have scones, but I was in a bakingContinue reading “Mother’s Day”
Romtertopf Roast Chicken
I got given a Romertopf for my birthday last year. I was so happy to have received it but I was totally overwhelmed by having absolutely no idea as to how to use the bloody thing.

In My Kitchen… October 2015
The days are getting warmer, and instead of spending time in the kitchen we are spending time at the beach. We went camping for the first week of the month, camping food and champagne was the menu. During that week I celebrated my day of birth, although we had been celebrating for about four daysContinue reading “In My Kitchen… October 2015”
Simple Gift Giving
I love giving gifts, way more than I love receiving them. I love to find the perfect gift for someone but if I know that there is a ‘gift season’ upon us, I find that I get quite anxious. I don’t like surprises. Actually, that’s not entirely true. I don’t like surprises if I knowContinue reading “Simple Gift Giving”
Reflecting on May
Making: a right ol’ mess. Cooking: a chicken korma in the slow cooker for a pot luck curry night tonight. Drinking: so much tea, all in pots, all loose and mostly black tea with milk. Reading: Farm City by Novella Carpenter. I borrowed it from the library (how much do you love the library), andContinue reading “Reflecting on May”
