MY DARLING LEMON THYME

(almost) raw kiwifruit + ginger ‘cheesecake’

Growing up we had loads of fruit trees on our property; feijoas, tamarillos, grapefruit, lemons and more. If you ventured right down the very bottom of the hill and looked to the left, you’d also spot a bunch of kiwifruit vines, growing over the timber frames my Dad built.

Spicy tomato + sweetcorn soup recipe

There’s been a lot of thoughts going round and round in my head about this online world lately, and while I’m not completely sure I should share them here, it kinda feels dishonest not to.
