This, my friends, is going to be a very short post. I’m not sure if you’ve noticed the lack of any online presence lately… and there’s certainly a reason for my silence. First, my parents are around for another few weeks – and family always takes priority so I am trying to squeeze in as [...]

Is it any surprise that my most favourite presents to give (and receive) during Christmas are cookbooks? I consider myself a pretty good judge cookbook character. For example, my brother who is a bachelor loves the four ingredients or less series and his idea of cooking is to buy a chicken, buy a packet of [...]

They say, necessity is the mother of invention. These last few weeks, I would say that moving is the mother of improvisation. As we countdown to moving homes, I find myself limited as to what I can cook because I’ve either packed something away or I’m trying to use up miscellaneous ingredients that have been [...]

Today at work we chatted about our favourite pastimes as children. I mentioned that , to pass the time during summers, my siblings and cousins would meet at my grandmother’s place every day. We would swim, watch (music) videos, eat, sleep, fight, swim some more, eat some more and definitely fight some more. Almost like [...]

The other day, as I do every morning, I took my two labradors for a walk. Nothing out of the ordinary except I had overslept and had less time to walk them and get ready for work. I knew I had to rush. So we went to a park that was 10 minutes away and [...]

Patience has never been my strong point. When I want things done, I want it straight away and a few years ago I realized my husband just doesn’t work on the same time zone as I do. Every Monday night I used to ask “Can you take the trash out?” “Yes.” He would reply. Five [...]

I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned this before, but growing up, I certainly enjoyed the many perks of my family owning a Spanish restaurant. Probably top of the list was being able to order anything I wanted from the menu. With each visit I’d try to order a different dish for my main course but [...]

Late last year I found myself alone in Melbourne’s most famous Spanish restaurant, Movida. I was sitting at the bar with eight (yes, EIGHT) dishes in front of me. I was in Melbourne for three days doing a baking course and had asked my classmates for dinner recommendations. The overwhelming response was to try Movida [...]
