Happy Easter fellow Foodies. Well I'm not a big chocolate fan so today on Easter Sunday I have made some Anzac biscuits. I used a traditional recipe & simply added extras. This batch has almonds, pecans, dates, apricots & lemon zest. I added the zest of one lemon to get a really fragrant flavour. They taste really fresh. Anzac biscuits are an Aussie classic, so celebrate our National Day of

After a 30deg day of incredible heat we went out for dinner on my son Connors 1st day back at school. While most buckle down for the school term of early dinner & early to bed, we opted for a walk along Manly Beach in a salty mist that almost hung along the shore line. As we walked I found this gorgeous door & wall that seemed like it should of been in Italy or Greece. The rustic paint has been

Today its over cast & it's time for a jiggle and reshuffle of the furniture in my office/lounge. I have become sick of my black printer crowding my space visually. So I swapped the office set of drawers & put the drawers closer to the lounge & have created a nice little side table. I've gone for my favorite look of seaside bleached chic.

 Some of the homes that I have passed in the last few weeks are picture perfect.  Living in the country is a sensory delight of space, the colour green and prettiness. I hope not to get in trouble for photographing peoples houses. Sometimes I'm not even getting out of the car to take these beauties. By the way there are some horrors... but I'll leave them for another day.

Today I went to Fox Studios Farmers Markets & saw these divine French Baskets. The morning was blessed with glorious sunshine & as i strolled through the crowds, every body seemed to have big bunches of flowers wrapped in earthy brown paper.

My breath is often taken away by the sheer beauty and tranquilly of flowers. There soft & delicate feminine petals remind me of an embrace of a friend, the petals invite you in & make you point your fingers delicately to touch the sheer tender & velvet dress of their veils delighting you in with intoxicating fragrance.
