I’ll be the first to admit, I am a gadget junkie.  This weekend I stepped inside the mall and stepped out with an electric groom tool and a soft serve ice cream maker.  It really didn’t matter that even the salesman tried to dissuade me to get the groom tool or that I had previously bought [...]

“Are you trying to kill me?” My husband asked as I put a plate infront of him. “Ha!  Not yet.” I told him.  “I have get some life insurance on you first!” The reason for his outburst was because infront of him was this toast, slathered with a caramelized coconut custard and a considerable amount [...]

I’ll admit, I am a creature of habit.  I can go for weeks having the same chicken schnitzel wrap for lunch (to a point where I am walking towards the sandwich shop and they will start preparing the wrap for me).  Probably, my most un-blogger like behaviour is my ability to go to the same [...]

Thermomix I saw it… I wanted it… TANTRUM I got it… Now… I know it sounds bratty… and it sounds like I had a major tantrum to get my latest (and promise, my very very last) kitchen appliance/luxury but, friends, when you want something, you gotta pull out all the stops for it… and this [...]
