Half the snack table it used to be

May 15, 2013

  You all know my love for the free range snack table. Well it isn’t as awesome as it used to be. The little fridge stopped working properly. So I have to put the kid’s cold snacks in our regular fridge- THE HORROR. It is the epitome of a first world problem.   Lucky for you [...]

A Better Brownie

May 7, 2013

      Where possible I try to make better choices in baking. I try to use a less processed product that still has some health benefits. I use coconut or rapadura sugar instead of white sugar and cacoa instead of cocoa. I use spelt flour, real butter and eggs from my own chooks. It means [...]

March 12, 2013

    I’ve blogged about our little snack station before and it seems that you loved it! I thought I’d share what we’ve got on offer at the table this week. The table suits us greatly because I hate being chained to the kitchen and the kids love to graze.  I keep the jars and [...]

March 5, 2013

    So I’m the crunchy granola Mum who makes crunchy granola. What of it? I use oats in this but you can very easily substitute the oats for almond meal and it’d be gluten free and paleo! It’s the granola of win. You will need a food processor of some kind. I use one [...]

Choose Your Own Adventure Oat Biscuits

February 11, 2013

    I love this recipe for what is essentially an Anzac biscuit-however you like it. Remember the Choose Your Own Adventure books? You wanted the story but you took the paths that looked good to you. So when you are making this recipe you can use different versions of flour, sweetener etc depending on [...]

Positive action

January 17, 2013

    We had green grass a couple of weeks ago. It’s been so damn hot here that the grass has burned away. I stepped outside before to water my seedlings and check on the animals. I could hear the whirring of the air conditioners in the surrounding houses and smell the hose water from gardens close [...]

Saturday Farmers Market

November 3, 2012

If you follow me on Twitter you’ll know how much I love our Saturday visit to the farmer’s market. I’m lucky to have one somewhere within a 30 minute drive each week. The markets rotate towns and sometimes there are a few on each week so we pick the best one. This week we hit [...]
