I ate what?

Friday, January 6th, 2006

Sometime before the “disapearance” Kirk had made a post about his meal of live uni. I had just been snorkling and been admiring all the sea urchins everywhere, after alittle prodding from Jo… I said that next time I went out I would get a sea urchin. So when I had picked myself up enough […]

Rembemer how I promised pics of where I went camping? Well here they are!
I don’t have any of the meals or fish I caught…as I left my memopry card at home grrrrr (to myself)

2 kinds of people

Friday, December 30th, 2005

I love the old traditional meals, I can remember my grandma making corned beef and thinking that anything that took that long must be good, and it was! Pictured here is Clare’s mum’s corned beef, slow boiled with onions, carrots, pepper and spices (mum’s secret). Looking good on her country-style stained hardwood table.
This particular meal […]

Why I am currently so sad to be an Australian

Monday, November 21st, 2005

I used to feel proud that Cheeze Whiz was not avaliable in Australia, but now I have to deal with us having CHEESE SQUEEZE. What on earth is cheese squeeze? Well I am not sure but I don’t think I want to know. I am so very very ashamed of you Devondale ….. But it […]
