Always crazy about food since she fed the neighborhood kids that first mud pie, (seasoned with a good dash of vegemite, a childhood Aussie fave!!) she now has a tribe of her own that she happily feeds whenever she can get them to sit down long enough. Her culinary experience ranges from Bangers ‘N Mash in London long ago…(and far far away) to attempts at Chinese banquets for her University ‘roomies’ in the USA to more recent culinary holidays to Singapore and Vietnam and now several years as a food consultant, recipe developer/writer and food eater and dreamer. Obsession can be a wonderful thing!
Professionally, she works as the official recipe developer for Thermomix Australia. She is also a Dairy Judge, (yoghurt, ice-cream and cheeses) at the Royal Perth Show, the proud owner of a beehive, herb garden, two or three fruit trees, passionate Slow Food member, truffle eater, dark chocolate afficionado and food tourist as she travels around Australia presenting cooking classes. In her spare time she dreams of laying on beaches in far away places, having perfect, sustainable food delivered to her by good looking younger men!
