Delicious Date Balls
I’ll admit upfront, I’m a “Date Ball” convert. Love em. Before changing over though, the thought of eating a Date made my face contort and my shoulders hunch. Dates! Ugh! Those are dried, sticky and overly sweet fruit with a gooey texture that moms try and give their kids to get their kilojoule intake up, right? …
Fiery Ginger Chews
I was first introduced to Ginger Chews earlier this year by my husband. He did a sailing course, got sea sick and some kind soul presented him with a pack of Gingerbons to alleviate the nausea and save his life. He came home with a packet of these fiery sweets and I finished them….
Salted Macadamia Nut Brittle
I just want to say straight away that I am not a fan of peanut brittle. Nope. But Macadamia nut brittle is different. It’s on a whole new level to Peanut Brittle. It is addictive and I am warning you now that your waist line could go awry. #justsaying. It’s happened to me. I first…

Easy Chai-Spiced Cupcakes
I did a yoga workshop last weekend – it was 3 hours long. That was not the exciting bit. The exciting bit was the Home-brewed Chai Tea and the carrot-raisin-apple-almond-orange cake we had at the end. I love yoga but food really is always the highlight, right? No amount of downward-facing dog could feel as…
