This is a no-good very BAD cake that you shouldn’t make if you are at all concerned with sugar, butter and all of those yummy things. For the rest of you that like to live and eat cake, I give you this recipe that I discovered in my cousin-in-law’s lovely kitchen in Florida. I made this as per the instructions …
Oh yes. You will love this one. I guarantee it. It has been tried and tested on Very Important Friends and they concur; calzones are go! Calzones are pretty common in SoCal, every pizza restaurant has them on the menu. I haven’t struck them at all since we’ve been back in NZ but to sum them up in a kiwi …
I am a HUGE fan of instant oats so was very happy to sample some new flavors from Uncle Toby’s. I like to keep a pack in the kitchen at work for breakfast or a warm lunch and my 7.5 yo son will eat oats any day of the week for brekkie. So, we had 4 taste testers and we …

There aren’t many that know fried chicken like a southern boy, and Dave surely knows how to make fried chicken. In our 7 years of marriage he has cooked this gor-met delicacy for me only twice. Once on New Years three years ago and tonight, surprisingly, he fried up a big lovely mess of chicken. Unprompted! Because I’m sure you …
Eating Baking always cheers me up and I knew exactly what I wanted to make today. I have only recently become a fan of dates, they seem to be Abby’s favourite scone variety so whenever we have morning tea she always comes equipped with some date scones. Dates are yummy, are grown on palm trees and are a source of …
