I’m currently going through (what I hope will be) the final stages of dinner time war. My older two kids have been there, done that, and are now relatively happy to eat whatever I cook at dinner time.

Sam loves to bake, run, eat dumplings and make magic in her thermomix (but not all at the same time).

Easter came a little early to our house when I surprised my kids with these yummy chocolate Easter egg brownies in their school morning tea box last week. I think Hollie died and went to chocolatey heaven. “Mum! Where did you get those chocolate egg cakes??” She asked the second she saw me after the bell […] Read more…
