For the love of food
This time in three weeks, Will and I will be on a plane heading over to New York City! We’re more than a little excited. The planning is well and truly underway and we’ve gone so overboard as to plot every place we want to go on a map. Restaurants have their own colour so [...]
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, [...]
Today you are witnessing a first here at Claire K Creations. Do you know what it is? I’ll just tell you and save you guessing… this tomato onion and feta tart, is the first ever tart/pastry shell that you’ve seen out of the tin here. It’s the first one that I’ve been brave enough to [...]
I was deliberating over which dip to buy when an older lady asked for assistance. ‘Would you mind helping me?’ she asked. ‘Of course not, how can I help?’ She’d forgotten her glasses and wanted to make sure she was buying the avocado dip with the highest percentage of avocado so asked me to read [...]
Stay with me I haven’t totally changed my eating habits over night. I’m not one to latch on to the latest craze diet, in fact I’m quite against them in general. My idea of a diet is eating as well as you can most of the time with a few (ok sometimes more than a [...]
In 2013 I’m going to continue to expand my eating repertoire. This year I’m going to find at least 10 salads that I like and make them every now and then. I’ve established that traditional salads with lots of lettuce are not my cup of tea. For me, a salad has to have a bit of oomph and [...]
I know what you’re thinking – my goodness Claire that’s not a very pretty looking recipe. I beg you to stay with me though because while this may not be the prettiest recipe I’ve ever posted, it sure is tasty and it makes up for it’s lack of visual appeal with it’s really-good-for-you status. This [...]
In this month’s In my Kitchen video post I showed off my shiny new toy – Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day. It was love at first bite with this one let me tell you. I’ve quite gotten into home bread baking in the last couple of years. Baking anything is satisfying but there’s [...]
Have you entered to win a $100 Woolies voucher? I wish I could enter! I’ve had some great entries and can’t wait to try some of the ideas. Who knew there were so many uses for Broccolini? Seeing as I received a massive box of it I’ve been trying a couple of other ideas of [...]
Have you seen or read ‘Eat Pray Love?’ It was a pretty hard thing to avoid for a while there. I loved the book and the movie but of course my favourite section was Italy. The way she described that food, I wanted to jump on the next plane headed for Rome and join her. [...]
I only ever share recipes here that I personally think are delicious and share-worthy. Some I eat and quickly dispose of the photos, others make the trip from the oven or stove straight into the bin. These little bundles of deliciousness? Let me tell you, they are one of the best things I’ve ever made. [...]
I seem to have a knack for finding bad weather at the coast. My man headed down to Sydney for the football finals last weekend so I decided to take a break up at the beach with mum and dad for the long weekend. I arrived at lunch time on Saturday to brilliant sunshine and [...]
