Today I am sharing one of my favourite (and ridiculously easy) go-to party food recipes. They go by many names, but I call them pinwheels (made out of puff pastry). Highly popular, I am sure you have come across them already? But have you made them? That is the important question? Essentially, you get…

Old-Fashioned Creamy Fudge (with fudge-making tips)
YASSSSSS! Creamy, ridiculously addictive, old-fashioned fudge! With Condensed Milk!! FUDGE me its good! (sorry) I am going to confess straight up here – this is my 5th time making fudge and its only the first time I have managed to nail it down to the right consistency and taste. That means, I failed FOUR times. Yikes!…
Slow Cooker Beef Ragu
If ever there ever was a reason to buy a slow cooker – this is it. Slow Cooker Beef Ragu. A friend of mine just bought a slow cooker second hand on Gumtree. Clearly the seller ain’t heard of Slow Cooker Beef Ragu. *Shakes head* There really should be a car sticker that says “Don’t…
5-Star Vegetarian Stroganoff
Well hello 5-Star Vegetarian Stroganoff. Helloooo. Uhm does this look yummy or what? Do you see this pan of pasta and sauce right here. Got a visual? Well, it is roll-your-eyes-back-in-your-head tasty. It is also my new FAVOURITE sauce and soon to be your new FAVOURITE sauce too. My husband and I devoured this entire…
Roasted Carrot and Ginger Soup
So weatherwise for February we are actually doing quite well. Friday last week was a SCORCHER. A little “Hello Announcement” from February. I remember this well because we held our littlest boys birthday party on Friday and we had about 300 kids in our swimming pool and I was running around sweating like a gypsy…
Bacon & Broccoli Salad (Yum!!)
Let’s talk about this salad. We first met in a home industry shop. Unlikely place to meet the salad of your dreams, I know. And funnily enough it was just sitting out on the counter as though it were a piece of cake or something. It looked healthy and I was SO hungry and I…
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…
Fiesta Quinoa
I watched a documentary called “Food Choices” a few weeks ago on Netflix (go watch it if you can!!) and ever since then, I’ve increased our “Meatless Mondays” into Wednesdays and Fridays too. Which basically means I need more vegetarian recipes (good ones) in my life! I wanted to share this one with you –…
Coconut and Berry Cake
Well hello! Have you missed me? I MISSED you guys! I thought I would never see the day of actually sitting down and writing out another recipe. #life yoh!! 3 kids, yoh!! Running a business, yoh!! In celebration of actually finding a moment and posting this recipe which I made and photographed, I am not…
Homemade Cloudy Lemonade
It feels so odd posting this today because firstly it is winter and secondly it is 9 degrees outside, misty and raining. What made me think of posting a cloudy lemonade recipe today of all days, the universe only knows!! So as I sit here and drink my cup of Five Roses tea, let me…
