In these uncertain times…
‘There’s no better way to kill a bad product than with good advertising.’ When I worked in advertising that phrase was our way of reminding ourselves to stay true in what we said about our product, but also, to try our best to make sure the product was good in the first place. If we…

in the eye of the beholder…
Just when I thought there was no time left for an inspired post before we travel, I had a guest. Sometimes these gifts just fall in our lap, if only we can take the time to appreciate them. Even though I was up to my neck, cleaning, washing clothes, packing, paying bills, answering email and making…

dark moments of a Light Chaser…
In the life of every good Light Chaser, there comes a time of darkness. I had not intended to go ‘bush’ this morning when I pulled on my favourite plush micro-fleece lounging pants. I needed to get several domestic chores accomplished before heading to my friend’s house for a session of sanity saving coffee and…

your dreams miss you…
Here, next to my computer, is a line I cut from a magazine quite a few years ago now… your dreams miss you. It is a reminder to me, to attend to the things that are important to me. To do that requires making an effort to keep my dreams in the forefront of my mind.…

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.

Chasing the Light
One of my surprising small pleasures is watching forensic investigative shows on TV. When they get to the ‘look away now’ parts, I suddenly pursue an urgent task in the kitchen to break the tension. But, until recently I couldn’t figure out my fascination with these types of programs. And then, a story line brought it…

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…

the gift I choose…
When the sun sets today it will have been a wonderful day. How do I know? Because that is what I choose as the gift of my 61st birthday. I choose to take photos from beginning to end, to my heart’s content, and to write and read and bask in the affirmation that is my…

To sip or snap?
I thought you might enjoy a look at the South Australian countryside (and weather!) via a trip to the Clare Valley. It was a day trip, and to be honest, five hours in the car for a three and a half hour look at some wineries and some lunch was a bit much, but that…

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…
