Have you guys heard of gochujang before? It’s a ridiculously delicious Korean chilli sauce. You can find it in Asian grocers and I have also seen it popped up in a couple local supermarkets recently. Well, imagine that paired with BUTTER. A flavour combination sent down from heaven. And it’s as easy as mashing it…

Peanut Butter Bliss Balls
For me, there’s more to daylight savings than just winding the clock an hour forward and rejoicing in the new found evening light. It’s become a marker, marking that time in the year where life starts to shift a bit as habits change and get shuffled around. I always feel a kind of reinvigoration, similar…
Apricot Coconut Bliss Balls
Well, here we are, the start of the new school year. I have mixed emotions about this, yet again. Although it is just a day, and my son is only one measly day older than yesterday, the start of a new grade signifies that my little baby is much further away from being a baby….
Tomato, Roast Capsicum + Quinoa Soup
Why did I decide to start a blog? Perhaps it is time to elaborate a little.. I used to co-own a little coffee shop with a talented (and highly motivated!) lady, my best friend, Kate Berry. It is a time in my life that I will forever look back on with pride and delight. It was an…
Somehow I Became Obsessed With Food
Food is an enormous part of my identity. In fact, if a friend was attempting to describe me to another, I am fairly certain it would be something along the lines of this: short girl, talks a lot, obsessed with food. Yep, that’s me. Surprisingly it has not always been this way. I mean, I have…
Strawberry Buttermilk Pancakes
10 Reasons To Love Pancakes – 1. They are pretty much the fastest ‘treat’ you can whip up. 2. I always have the necessary ingredients in my fridge and pantry. 3. You can utilise whichever fruit you have in the fruit bowl. 4. If you have no fruit, you can use jam. 5. If you…
Rice Paper Rolls, Two Ways
I’ll be honest, Rice Paper Rolls are not usually part of my repertoire. I mean I love them, but I generally just buy them rather than make them at home (which, is pretty peculiar behaviour for me actually!). Unfortunately I am super fussy and cannot bring myself to even try the ones from the local suburban ‘Sushi’ shop….
Red Rice Salad with Apple, Walnuts + Boiled Eggs
The weather in Victoria has shifted, and in the most glorious way. Most days have some sunshine and the nights are crisp and cool. The oven is often on without fear of heating up house. New season apples are on display at the green grocer. How lovely is Autumn. This salad is pretty classic…
Zucchini + Sultana Loaf
Zucchini in a cake? Yes. I can feel all of you frowning. And the pity you have for my poor young son who has one of ‘those’ mothers. You know, the kind who hides vegetables in their food. Even in the goddamn cakes! That poor poor boy! To my defence, carrots are socially accepted in…
Chocolate Hazelnut Torte with Salted Caramel + Coconut Cream
Laura Wright from The First Mess has pretty much ruled Pinterest since uploading the photos from her Chocolate Hazelnut Torte recipe. My jaw hit the floor when I first saw it. It had the words ‘salted date caramel’, ‘hazelnut’ and ‘coconut cream’ in the title. It was vegan. And gluten free! I read through the…
