Merry Christmas everyone! I hope you’ve had an amazing Christmas eve get together with those closest to you. And for those on the west coast, I hope the preparation is coming along just fine. I was meant

Almost midday through December I can definitely say that it is going to be a busy month! I’ve been trying hard to get myself organised but I supposed that I will just have to make do with my limited time.

I am glad to be able to present an entry for the Pot Luck Dinner to Benefit @adollaraday Charity. It was not a given at first. I was unwell towards the end of the week, a time when I normally prepare my

A couple of weeks ago we did the budget meal challenge. I reckon this week’s challenge would have been as cheap as the budget meal. Except for the raspberries and cherry I had the majority of the ingredients

A few weeks ago, while doing my weekly shopping I stumbled upon a packet of matcha tea. Up to that point I’ve only read about this ingredient and hardly had one cold matcha drink at a popular Chinese

“Free for All”! This week’s challenge opened up a lot of opportunities to prepare and cook whatever one really enjoy. I had a lot of things in mind. Recipes that I had never tried before. Recipes that

This has got to be the most challenging week of all. It explains my delay in posting this week. What can we eat with $1.16 - this is the change rate for 1SBD in Australian Dollar. My initial thought was

Growing up I thoroughly enjoyed drinking a milkshake. My parents would make it in a very traditional way. They’ll get some fresh milk add in some almond extract or another flavour. They’ll then pour everything

It has yet been another busy week. Not sure if anyone is keeping track but we are less than nine weeks away from Christmas. 9 weeks! You read well. Where has time gone by? I’m not even sure I’ll have enough

It’s good to be back! I feel that season 3 of Cook With Us, with now the support of @curie, will be amazing. I’ve been looking forward to the competition after a much awaited break. After the nerve wracking

I wasn’t sure I would have an entry for the Cook With Us Homework. Let’s face it we don’t many exotic fruits in Poland. And if we don’t I sure have never come across them for my time living there. So I

The trauma and drama around the Strawberry market in Australia has quiet down a bit. The season is officially over in Queensland and New South Wales. The police is yet to identify the culprit. The copycats

The Strawberry market in Australia is in big trouble. In recent weeks there have been a spade of issues coming to public attention. So much so that the Federal police in now on a national manhunt and the

I’ve gone to hell and back in the last 48 hours. Self-doubt hell! Over-thinking hell! And time hell! I’ve settled my mind on making a parfait as my final dish (dessert) of the @docsmith handmade knife

I’ve just finished vacuuming after my daughter’s Play Doh session. She is now nicely tucked on the couch watching her new favourite show Peppa Pig. The start of this week has been fairly busy. We’ve been

It’s great to be back for Round Two of the @docsmith handcrafted knife contest by @cookwithus. I can honestly admit that I can feel the pressure mounting a notch. Over the last 24 weeks or so of participating

I couldn’t be more excited about the @docsmith Handcrafted Knife Contest. And I’m definitely looking forward for the next week which are going to be quite challenging to say the least. For this first leg

It has been yet another eventful political week in Australia. We have a new Prime Minister after the last one was dumped by his party. This makes him the fifth Prime Minister since 2013. If you want to

It has been one busy week-end at home. For a while I’ve considered long and hard whether I would prepare an entry for this week’s contest. My daughter is turning 2 on Wednesday. Being a weekday, we’ve

This week’s theme has been quite a challenge. I’ve struggled all week to decide on a dish. Everything I had in mind didn’t quite stick to the theme. The challenge is to display one cutting skills. Throughout
