winter warming sausage rolls
There is something about these colder months that makes lunch a bit tricky…salads just don’t cut it like they do when the sun is shining. Growing up, I was always the only sausage roll eater when everyone else in my family opted for pies…the middle child, the black sheep who prefers sausage rolls. These days […]
discovering sichuan
I recently returned from a trip to the Sichuan province of China. It was a whirlwind 10 day trip filled with adorable pandas, a busy city, beautiful mountain villages, a super fun Chinese wedding and of course…lots of amazing food. Being obsessed with all things food meant that the first thing I had to discover when […]
a farm wedding
Three months ago I had the best day ever….it was the day that Nick and I got married and had an awesome party with all our family and friends. We had the wedding on my family’s beautiful sheep and cattle farm in the tiny town of Walcha. It was a serious operation with a lot […]
autumn long lunch
A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of working with a very talented bunch of young & clever people on a beautiful long lunch shoot for the Wild Rabbit to mark the start of autumn. For me, nothing quite beats a long boozey lunch with good friends and delicious food to ease your way […]
thailand honeymooning
I can’t believe its already been a whole month since we got home from the most perfect holiday that was our honeymoon…10 days of indulgence, delicious food, amazing cocktails, blissful poolside lounging and beautiful sunsets & sunrises. I suppose it’s a good thing it still feels like yesterday I was sitting by our pool in […]
the humble empanada
Life has been busy between over the last few months which is why I’m only just getting around to writing about some of the food of South America from my trip back in August! You can’t talk about food in South America without mentioning the humble empanada. Every country seems to have their own variation […]
tasty food for the road
It seems to be the season of roadtrips at the moment, but that doesn’t have to mean long hauls and greasy food. There’s something about roadtrips that lets us make excuses for eating gross food that we wouldn’t usually eat, and just leaves you feeling like crap 10 minutes after you’ve eaten. It can also […]
country roadtrips
Over the last few weeks I’ve been doing a fair bit of roadtripping around for picnic races, friend’s engagement parties, weddings & baby showers…(yep apparently I’ve reached that time in our life!!). There is something about getting out of Sydney and heading out on a bit of a roadtrip that I really love. After growing […]
spring picnics in the sun
With spring well and truly here there is no better way to wash off the winter cobwebs than to get outside and enjoy a beautiful lunch with friends in the sun. I grew up on a farm where we’d often head off to our favourite spot on the farm for picnics on a nice day […]
some of south america…finally!
I’ve realised this week that it is now well and truly more than a month since my return from South America and I STILL haven’t gotten around to writing and sharing stories and delish photos. It’s not because I just can’t be bothered. Things have been pretty busy around here, as I’m currently in the process of […]
