If you have siblings, there's a very good chance that at some point you've played the annoying I'm-going-to-copy-everything-you-say game. I'll offer similar odds that at some point you drove your parents to the gin bottle up the wall complaining about it. If your's were anything like my folks, they would have told you, in between medicinal sips, 'Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery'.

I’m too embarrassed to show you what the veggie patch looks like at the moment. I’ve been spending too much time inside*. Luckily last year’s beautiful heirloom tomatoes self-seeded while I wasn’t looking, so its not a total bust. I broke the cardinal sin of gardening a few months ago and planted mint directly into the garden. Predictably it’s making a complete weed of itself, I keep being rough with it but it keeps growing back. I couldn’t bear to throw the leaves away from the last savage haircut I gave the mint, so I went back to basics - mint

This is truly the world’s simplest Christmas cake. I first heard of this method of making Christmas cake from Kim McCosker’s mum, who told me it’s a recipe from her neighbour. I’ve adapted it slightly, because 1) booze and 2) almonds. There’s no (additional) sugar in the recipe so it’s diabetic friendly. It’s also dairy-free.Dietary considerations aside, the real reason why I love this cake SO much is that it’s ridiculously easy.

The Muster is a cracking weekend filled with good fun and great music and it attracts people from all over the country.

The tomatoes that I lovingly raised to seedlings, then planted in the garden and nurtured through the driest period that we’ve experienced on the farm, have started to fruit. As luck would have it, the arrival of rain has coincided with the tomato flourish, causing the fruit to swell and split on the vines. They’re spoiling and it breaks my heart. So today I decided to try my hand at making my own tomato paste, and I’m thrilled to say that I think this is the best thing I’ve cooked all year. I’m giddy with pride. It turns out that Luc
I do my best work in the shower. I’m not sure what it is about being in a lather, but I have my best ideas there. I've practiced my married signature, named my children and written countless blog posts on the steamed up glass in our ensuite. This morning was no different. I was solving the world food supply crisis* when something interrupted my train of thought. Gee my breath smells awful. Continued scrubbing and introspection lead me to the realisation that if my breath smelt like that I would likely be dead. The water I was cleansing myself with
