In My Kitchen – June 2014
This little family is growing. It seemed the original two on the left, wanted a sibling. Can you see the family resemblance? If we find space in the cup cupboard, we may have to add a fourth. Also, this month, there was an unexpected guest that came calling around dinner time. I saw him, from my kitchen window…

One for the road
I am on a journey at the moment. It’s not the kind I usually take you on. It is one of those we would prefer not to take, truth be told. But if we can somehow get perspective on these things Life throws at us, it makes the journey, if not easier, at least not wasted. So…

Add some zest to your life!
For some reason best known by the Great Universal Intelligence, zest has appeared in my life. Repeatedly. Often. The kind of zest I’m talking about is hanging on trees! I’m always one to follow where my nose and taste buds lead me, for good or for bad. What kind of a friend would I be, not to share…

In My Kitchen – May
It’s a good thing I take food photos as I go along, because so much happens in a month I completely forget what all we ate! And looking back over the photos there was a lot of red going on too! This was a transitional month In My Kitchen. We moved from summer foods and salads to more…

In My Kitchen – April 2014
Look at how this last day of March began before my walk, and before writing this post… For the last few weeks the activities at our house have focused around the laundry, not the kitchen. The laundry was the very last area to receive the makeover treatment, in the 15 years (almost to the day)…

In My Kitchen – March 2014
The passed month in my kitchen has been interesting… in a good way. Our weather cooled and dried out to glorious, for about two weeks, and so my energy for cooking returned with gusto. My husband is a dab hand at the barbecue, so that leaves me to do things in the kitchen. It is…

Coffee and a story…
I thought I’d share with you my most favourite kitchen device of the moment… But first a little story…about the gentleman who introduced this little gem to me… Mr V. Don and I have both known Mr V since he was our primary school principal. His wife was my first grade teacher, and their daughter…

In My Kitchen – February 2014
(In My Kitchen is a monthly post linked to the figjamandlimecordial.com blog. It’s creator, Celia, hosts IMK blogs from around the world and it is such a fun peak into other kitchens.) January in Alice Springs is pretty laid back. It is usually very hot, and all of us are ready for some summer ease after…

Home and Away
We recently had four nights away in Sydney. It was very warm and humid and the city seemed especially noisy this time. Normally it is one of my favourite cities to visit, but lately I’ve noticed I am gravitating more and more toward serene destinations. However, the concert tickets I gave my husband for his…

In My Kitchen
(This post is my first attempt to participate in Fig Jam and Lime Cordial’s monthly hosting of other such posts entitled In My Kitchen. Celia hosts this snapshot of kitchens around the world, and what is taking place in them. Very fun to read. Thanks Celia!) This has been a surprising week in my kitchen. …
