I’ve been baking again. It’s become a real procrastination habit of late. Whenever there is something on my to-do list that is not floating my boat, I seem to find myself busy in the kitchen. It’s not great for getting through my list, but it sure does make the kids happy. I even over heard […] Read more…
Josh’s birthday is at the end of October and the count down has already begun (yes, it is painful!). Last night he was telling another new idea of what he would like, and one the things he asked for were red velvet cupcakes. I didn’t even know he’d had them before, but apparently they’re his favourite. […] Read more…
These biscuits are absolutely perfect for little kids in the kitchen. Although I’ve used my thermomix, you really don’t need one. This cookie dough is so easy to work with that the kids can really get stuck into making all kinds of shapes without the dough breaking up and falling to pieces. It’s just like […] Read more…
Last Saturday night, while the boys went off to the city to watch the Waratahs play footy, the girls and I went over to a friends house for dinner. My job was to bring the dessert (and wine of course). We’d had such a busy day that I needed to make something that wasn’t going […] Read more…

Sam loves to bake, run, eat dumplings and make magic in her thermomix (but not all at the same time). When’s she’s not baking, thermomixing, running or eating, she likes to kick cancer’s butt and look […] Read more…

Not a drop of refined sugar in sight!! I was so excited when she gave me a copy […] Read more…
Banana bread is just one of those things that everyone has a recipe for. Even if you’re not really a baker, I’m sure you’ve made or attempted to make banana bread at least once. I’ve made it a heap of times, but for some reason I can never get a consistent outcome. It’s perfect one time and […] Read more…
This post is written in collaboration with Tip Top bakeries. Last week I was invited to the Tip Top bakery headquarters to hear about a new campaign they’re launching called ‘A grain of truth’. I also got to have a look inside one of their kitchens and see just how the bread is made. It […] Read more…
Welcome to another edition of Thermie Thursday!!! I’m so sorry that I missed last weeks post. I had every intention of posting it, but were away on a family camping holiday. Not only did I loose track of the days (which is a good thing on holiday right?) but there was limited internet and it […] Read more…
