Waiting for the festival to start
Taken today! My son and I caught up with some friends and headed to the Bastille Festival in the Rocks. It was a celebration of all things French! Mulled wine on a sunny winter day! For Debbie’s Six Word Saturday.
Blog post done. Hello sponge cake!
I enjoy writing. But life often gets in the way. I took the day off work to run some errands and was happy to find time to blog. I also love eating. So I had a good day! For Debbie’s Six Word Saturday!
The dessert is called a Pavlova
Or a “Pav”. It is a meringue-based dessert topped with whipped cream and fruit that is almost Australia’s national dish. Although New Zealanders would like to claim it was invented in their country first. The dessert was created in honour of the Russian ballerina, Anna Pavlova, when she toured Australia and New Zealand in the […]
He made cupcakes during the holidays!
It’s a different kind of image this week. I recently downloaded Photofox and had some fun editing photos. This is our son’s first batch of cupcakes. He made it himself with little supervision. He was so proud of them that day and loved sharing them with his father and me. For Debbie’s Six Word Saturday!
Not A Single Origin: The box of chocolates that represents multicultural Sydney

Those Jelly Drops
This story comes from the UK. By now it’s probably done the rounds. But I wanted to collect this one. Lewis Hornby just made life a whole lot easier for seniors living with dementia by taking the time to understand them. The London based student wanted to help his own grandmother who was living with the […]
Syrian Almonds in Sydney
There is a small, 40 seat restaurant in Darlinghurst. Opened by two sisters, Carol and Sharon Salloum, the place has delighted Sydney-siders for more than ten years with delicious Syrian food. Called the Almond Bar, the sisters wanted to showcase Middle Eastern cuisine and change perceptions of what it had to offer through their restaurant. […]
Sweet
It’s a lemon meringue pie! The white top layer is sugared egg whites that covers a tart lemon curd base underneath. This one came with a sprinkle of dried raspberries. My son ordered it a few days ago and proceeded to demolish the sweet white topping before starting on the sour base. I would have […]
