White Chocolate and Coconut Fudge
I have always been a massive sucker for fudge. I remember coming home from the markets with a haul in my younger, pre-dietary restriction days. Since going gluten and dairy free I've only found a couple of delicious recipes for fudge that I can eat. My favourite is the Christmas Fudge from Against All Grains: Celebrations by...

Easy Dinosaur Cake
I've gained a bit of a reputation for doing family and friends special celebration cakes. I've done a few classes and taught myself a few things. I'm no pro, but I really enjoy it and I think I do pretty well. They are very time consuming and costly, so while I love that I can... Continue Reading →
Diary of a Novice Gardener- Update (Jan)
I don't have much to report on my garden by way of doing anything different. It's been a very busy month for me starting a new job, which involves a much longer commute than I'm used to so I haven't had as much time for gardening or writing. Luckily my garden hasn't needed much more... Continue Reading →
Australia/Survival Day

And tonight I'll probably watch the Australia Day concert from the Sydney Opera House. I also thought I'd play some music from Aussie artists so I made a little list (150 or so... Continue Reading →
Diary of a Novice Gardener- Part 5
27.12.2018 Today is going to be 37 degrees Celsius but I really wanted to get in the garden today. I headed off to Bunnings very early and spent a couple of hours in the garden before the heat of the day (it was still pretty warm at 10am!). I potted the rose I was given... Continue Reading →
Cherry Ripe Overnight Oats
I have some Cherries left over from Christmas and thought I’d throw together some overnight oats. I generally do my overnight oats with a mixture of non-dairy milk (I use a almond/coconut blend normally) and coconut yogurt, but I also had some coconut milk left over from baking and wanted to make this super coconutty....

Diary of a Novice Gardener- Part 4
10.12.2018 Today I popped outside to do some watering after work and to my surprise there are little baby cucumbers growing on my plant. I’ve struggled so much with this cucumber plant. My best friend, who is an excellent gardener suggested I cut off the dead leaves so that the plant could spend its energy... Continue Reading →
