So while GG busied himself with dessert I decided to try my hand at a new recipe also. I’d recently been gifted a new cookbook and flicking through the pages came across an interesting looking salad recipe – Sesame Duck Salad. Looked tasty and different to the normal garden salads that we had during the […]

I’m a very lucky girl and recently GG said that if I picked a dessert recipe from one of my cook books that he would make it for me. I am very spoiled. So I perused many books and settled on a recipe from the Women’s Weekly Sweets Old Fashion Favourites Book – The Key […]

Saturday morning and GG snuck into work early to get a couple of hours in and I geared up for the launch of the new Les Mills classes at the gym – Body Combat at 8.15, back to back with Body Pump at 9.15. Totally brutal combination and the new releases were excellent! Can’t wait […]

Having worked in West Perth for coming on 6 years now its always exciting when somewhere new to visit pops up. Enter The Brown Fox.  The newly revamped Onyx Bar has been getting renovated since late last year and finally a few weeks ago it opened its doors. And what an impressive job they have […]

Once a year GG and I head down Benara Road, turn right down West Swan Road and drive down the long, scenic driveway to the cellar door of Sandalford Winery. I look forward to it every year and Sunday gone was our third visit. Always hard when you go to back to a place, will […]

Another deal to good to pass up on Scoopon – this time at the Byrneleigh Hotel in Nedlands, where I had wanted to try for ages! This time around deal was just $49 for a 2 course meal for 2 people, where you started with a Byrneleigh Experience Mixed Plate, then each chose a mains, and also got […]

So the final course in our three course adventure for our parents was to tackle a creme brulee. Back in December, Santa Claus had known his audience well and a kitchen blow torch and a can of butane found its way into my stocking. So excited!! And I’ve been hanging out for an opportunity to […]

So continuing on our mega three course meal for our parents we decided to utilise the bbq for mains and bought some scotch fillet steaks, again from Mirrabooka Square, from the butchers next to the seafood store. Nice looking bits of meat.             So GG was in charge of the […]

Next month, GG and I will have been together for 3 years, so we figured it was high time that we officially introduced our parents to each other. And given the recent creation of our stunning new patio, the first official patio function was to be a parent-off of sorts. Now given that we have been […]

I’ve been on the TNT Diet for a few weeks now and with the exception of GG’s birthday weekend when we both did really applied ourselves and completely over indulged in all things cake, it’s getting easier to figure out what recipes to go with for dinner. And Sunday night it was time for kebabs again and the […]
