At one time in my adult life, I was afraid of cooking. Afraid of failing, of not doing things ‘just right’.  When I moved to Australia there were foods I missed, and the only cure seemed to be to make it myself. This evolved over time as my family (Rod and his Mum) encouraged me by liking what I made and being generally willing to try the things I made.  More than 20yrs later, I look forward to spending time in the kitchen, and I love trying new things when I can. 

When I started posting recipes to my blog, it was to share with my adult kids their favourites that I made.  It’s slowly evolved since then, but a few things have stayed the same. I’m not big on fancy cooking. I like making home cooked meals.  You also won’t find professional photos.  All the pics on recipe pages are taken by me, usually with the camera on my phone. Some of the older posts have awful photos because that’s what I had at the time.  I hope to start adding more recipes as there’s much I’d like to share with you. Meanwhile, enjoy!
