Consider this recipe a farewell to this summer's berry season, a final hurrah if you will. I can't believe February (and summer) are almost over already, this year is already flying by! Berries are making way for stone fruit, figs and grapes, and soon we'll be seeing new season autumn fruit like pears and apples. While I can't play favourites with summer fruit (I love it all), blueberries are right up there, and a cobbler is a delicious way to serve them.Unfussy, perfect for a crow ... Quick Read |

A somewhat uncommon ingredient to us everyday Aussies, but these green leaves are used extensively in South East Asian cuisine. Lending a delicate, almost floral taste that is perfect in baked goods, drinks and even ice cream, in a similar way to how we woul ... Quick Read |

Oh Melbourne, I miss you. It?s probably better if I don?t tell you how long ago this trip actually was (!!) but it was filled with so much fun and so many delicious eating adventures with my sister that I still wanted to share with you, so here is a post filled with ?mini reviews? of some places we visited!Pacos TacosWhen I heard that Frank Camorra of Movida fame had turned his hand to tacos, I knew we were in for good things. It was a warm and sunny Friday when we headed there for l ... Quick Read |

Australia Day is one of my favourite holidays. It's by far the most relaxed, a great excuse to spend time with friends over a few beers and fire up the BBQ. I also like showcasing some classic Australian dishes here on my blog, with one of my favourite (obviously) being the Lamington. Last year I recreated it in doughnut form, which was awesome, but this year I wanted to turn it into ice cream. Chocolate and coconut are two things that ... Quick Read |

I?m going to keep it short today, but oh so sweet. I had a little bit of caramel sauce leftover from another dessert and an extreme case of baking indecision over the weekend. I?m not sure what made me think of milkshakes, as I generally never drink them - unlike Steve, who finds it impossible to pass up ordering a milkshake or spider whenever he sees them on a café menu!Then I remembered the ...

I don?t go out to eat that much any more. I know it?s almost blasphemous for a food blogger to admit that, but it?s true. In years past I would often find myself out most nights of the week, but these days I often prefer to return to my favourite places, and the camera hardly ever comes with me. But the desire to share really great discoveries will never die ? I mean that?s what blogging is all about!Signature Brasserie overlooks Botany Bay at Brighton Le Sands.

I had my first day off in months the other day and was excited to get into the kitchen and bake something, while still in my PJ's, in the middle of the day on a Wednesday. But when it came to deciding actually what to make, I hit a wall. The fridge was a little bare, the fruit bowl even more so, and nothing on my very long list of baking ideas was standing out to me.But then I remembered these cookies from Donna Hay magazine a couple of months ago and was instantly inspired. The brownie cookies ... Quick Read |
