a few of my favourite things {October 2014}
We have a rent inspection coming up next week (I really haaaaaate these damn things!), which means that amongst cleaning like a mad woman, I’ve also been sorting through piles of photos, papers, magazines and cookbooks, which you know, kinda get outa hand when left to their own devices for a few months. Cleaning out […]
broccoli soup with tahini, lemon and pine nut za’atar + a trip to the Southern Forests…
I’m continuing on with my cookbook theme today, but this time it’s a little closer to home. After nearly four years of living in Western Australia I finally feel like I’m really getting to know this place and it’s people, but other than the odd trip out of town I haven’t really experienced much of […]
vanilla chia pudding (gluten-free + vegan)
I think I’ve said this before, but this year really does seem to be the year of the cookbook! (Next week I have another amazing one to talk about too!). So many cookbooks have been released, and so many more are in the works…. especially in the food blogging world! It’s fair to say that […]
no-bake chocolate granola cookies (gluten + dairy-free)

Around the same time someone in a NZ Coeliac Disease facebook group which I’m […]
zucchini, millet + mint salad with coriander dressing
As I’ve already mentioned a bunch of times, I often have leftover millet or quinoa hanging around in the fridge from a previous meal. More often than not this gets used up the next day as a salad or sometimes patties. I recently saw these beautiful zucchini (aka courgette in NZ) at my local greengrocers, […]
a few of my favourite things {September 2014}
It seems I’m a day late with these favourites (whoops!), but yesterday was just too beautiful to be on the computer and we had the pleasure of looking after one of the cutest little humans for my friend while she did some preparation for her huge talk coming up soon (see link below!). I hope […]
stir-fried millet with ginger, broccolini + fried egg
You may have noticed a little theme happening around here lately… and it begins with the letter M. You’ll see next month why I’m on a bit of a millet tangent at the moment, but for now lets talk about this beautiful gluten-free grain. If we’re getting technical, it’s actually a seed, native to Western Africa. […]
