Almond Milk with a Hint of Vanilla
The arrival of Seth has severely impeded my ability to cook. Don't get me wrong, I am that annoying person who loves newborn babies. I have basically spent the past 6 weeks sitting in a…

These blended iced morning meal solutions have been a big part of my life for over 15 years now and I'm still excited every time I make one. They are the only unanimously agreed upon…
It’s hard to believe that 12 months have passed since deciding to publicly document my kitchen forays, while simultaneously suffering with morning sickness. In hindsight, I think only a person not of sound mind, possessing…
I have implemented a new rule in the house - no meal can take longer to make than to clean up. I find that this is quite easy to enforce Monday - Friday, but come…
One of my personal triumphs of this year so far is mastering labeneh. If I am being truly honest, it was more a realisation that things are not always as hard as they seem than…
The sugar department of the kitchen is where my American parentage is felt loud and proud, ignoring any trace of British accent or London upbringing. Many summer months during formative years spent on the other side…
I have just touched down from a week in the States. I divided my time between New York City (long overdue visit to see friends and family) and Portland Oregon, ...
My cornbread hall of fame ranges far and wide. From the infamous Moosewood cookbook recipe made regularly in our house during the vegetarian era of the late 1970’s/early 1980’s to accompany chili sin carne, to…

I must confess I have been sitting on this recipe for quite a while now. This cake started its life many years ago as a Danish Chocolate Chip cake whose recipe came to me via…
This was a big week. I finally turned 40 on Monday. I say finally, as I have actually been celebrating for about 7 weeks now and have almost reached 40 celebrations for my 40 years of…
When the shit hits the fan, I bake. Given the current state of our world, my kitchen now resembles a small bake shop. The boys are well snacked, friends get treats, a little late night…
This was a week of firsts and to celebrate I made Upside Down Ginger Cake, an old favourite from one of the many recipe scrapbooks started all those years ago before the internet. With all…
It is hard to believe, but baby no.4 (lovingly known around here as G4) is 1 next week. Shocking how time can simultaneously pass so slowly and quickly.
A Vida Portuguesa To say that I was blown away by my weekend in Lisbon might be an understatement. Having only spent one particularly unmemorable holiday in the Algarve many ...
We have just returned from an almost 3 week adventure in the USA. Starting with 10 days in New York where we met the Australian contingent of our family for ...
