POWER TO THE PEOPLE…

POWER TO THE PEOPLE…
Persian Power Bars I have been twiddling around with the idea of power bars for sometime as the ones you can buy are; A) nasty tasting B) bad for you in that they have masses of additives and C) because I have a Thermomix and that is what I do!

OF HONEY, FIGS, ALMONDS AND THE LIKE!
Well it was tough, but someone had to eat it! Luckily I made this one at work and the office staff were happy to oblige…otherwise my ever increasing girth would be even girthier! My sister Kerri provided me with some of her lovely fresh figs and of course I had to blog about them! I took on the...

CHRISTMAS IS COMING…ALONG WITH THE HEAT!

CHRISTMAS IS COMING…ALONG WITH THE HEAT!
Christmas Ice Cream Torte I know that sounds crazy to my northern readers, but as the temperature starts to head into the 30′s (Celcius that is), our thoughts down under turn to Christmas, and ways to keep the feasting cool and casual, around the pool or water somewhere, somehow…what better...
