For the love of food
I can’t remember the last time the weather looked as good as this on Easter Sunday. I know it’s a bad habit but I check my phone when I wake up, perusing all my social networks and clearing my junk mail ready to tackle the day when I sit down at my desk. On Sunday, [...]
I should have written this yesterday. If I had written it yesterday I could have told you that I was sitting at the table at mum and dad’s place looking out at the ocean, feeling the warmth of the sun on my face. Writing it today I can still tell you that I’m sitting at [...]
Searching for my hot cross buns recipe the other day I realised that I actually have quite a stock of Easter recipes here. To save you the trouble of searching for them all I thought I’d bring them all together. Please excuse some of the earlier photos! I made this Easter cake last year as [...]
What a weekend! Thank you for all my Birthday wishes. I’m still digesting all the food and fun I’ve had over a the last few days and you know I’ll share it in great detail but for now I’m just going to eat smoothies all day today and talk about something other than my feasting. [...]
Hoppy Eggster every bunny! I hope you’re all having an eggcellent day and enjoying it with family and friends. Have an Easter egg for me!
Ok so I might have made one last Easter treat. Who can resist an Easter cake that looks like a giant edible basket of eggs? It was pretty easy to make. I just whipped up my favourite chocolate mudcake (sorry I was sworn to secrecy with that recipe) and iced it with chocolate ganache. Then [...]
Happy Good Friday! One of the perils of always thinking is that I’m always coming up with last minute idea or things I want to try. I don’t have any time left to try out Easter ideas so I thought I’d make a little round up of my favourites that I’ve seen across the web [...]
I have a rather vivid, almost child-like imagination. Not quite Alice down the rabbit hole extreme but I like to think I know how to dream. I’m always thinking of new ways to decorate, different organising tricks, recipes, cake decorations, places I want to go, things I want to do… oops lost in a little [...]
I was a hero this morning. Ok maybe not a serious hero in all senses of the word but I did make one family pretty happy. I was near the end of my Saturday morning walk/run when I spotted a gorgeous white fluffy kitten with big blue eyes cowering on the footpath. This little girl [...]
I’m a little late with my Easter inspiration this year. I was waiting for one of those light-bulb moments of creativity but it seems they just might have all been used up with wedding planing (maybe you have a quota every year). I did have a little strike of an idea the other day when [...]
Happy Easter every bunny! I hope no one has overdosed on chocolate quite yet (although by this afternoon it is perfectly acceptable). I’m enjoying an Easter Feasta at the beach with my family in the glorious and unseasonal weather. As my grandma says ‘may the blessings of Easter be with you.’ I’ll add enjoy the [...]
