Sandwich of meringue with macerated raspberries, vanilla glaze and tiramisu ice cream

International Incident Eggs Party

Being new to the blogging world I am entering anything I can to attain more experience in blogging and to expand my skills in the kitchen. When I found the International Incident Party I was excited to be involved in something on a global scale. For those who are unfamiliar, the International Incident Party is a monthly online party where bloggers cook a dish based on a theme ingredient and submit their results on the same day and celebrate their successes and pick up a range of fabulous new recipes to try.


This month's theme was eggs so I thought I'd cook one of my favourite desserts but add a bit of a twist to it.

Cocktails and tapas at Subsolo with iFranc and the fabulous Mrs New

Subsolo is one of those places to which you just keep going back. I often find myself gravitating towards it whenever I need to find a venue on the north eastern side of town and had reason to go there again last night when good friend iFranc said he was up for drinks. So I roped in the fabulous Mrs New and tottered there in excitement...

Happiness really is a shared meal...at Sailors Thai @ Ivy

I've been a fan of the original Sailors Thai at the Rocks for many years so when I heard they had opened at the Ivy needless to say I was rubbing my hands in anticipation. What would they do different? What will be the same? I took the opportunity to try it out when my dear friend iFranc called to say not only was he was in Sydney, but he was free for lunch!

After hearing much about this restaurant I finally had the chance to sample Neil Perry's latest incarnation first hand and I must say I was very impressed

Vanilla Bean and Lime Deli Cafe, Padstow


Everyone has their local haunt. A place where they love the coffee, the service is friendly, the vibe is cool and the prices are reasonable. My personal weekend haunt is Vanilla Bean and Lime Deli Cafe, the subject of this post

new life, new challenges, new creative outlets

Recently married, there's a sense of 'emptiness' once the hype and all the planning all dies down...
