It’s a Kiwi thing! Let me start with that Chocolate Afghans are a Kiwi thing. Unless you are a New Zealander, lived in New Zealand or know a beloved Kiwi, you’re This is why you’re not likely to have heard of these biscuits before.

Beer Batter Fish
A pub meal at home. If you’re Australian, New Zealander, Canadian, Irish or British it’s almost a certainty you have visited a pub for a meal. While there, chances are you’ve had one time beer batter fish & chips. Let me explain what is a pub to those not familar with it. Pub is short…
Chicken Sweet Corn Soup
Nourishing soup for the whole family. It’s winter and Sydney sure has had some really cold days of late! Cold to us Sydneysiders means that the high for the day is around 16 degrees celsius with a low of around 8 degrees. I know, that’s not that cold but for us beach lovers it is….
Creamy Dijon Chicken

Old Fashioned Raspberry Jam
Oh yes, cheap raspberries! We do love to visit Sydney Markets to get fresh produce, especially during berry season. Buying berries there means much cheaper prices than you’d see in shops. I’ve bought loads of strawberries and blueberries at cheap prices to make homemade berry jam. What I’ve never seen there are raspberries for sale….
Tex Mex Chicken
A meal so easy you’ll love it! I can’t claim credit for this recipe. I was inspired by Catherine who was a former workawayer who stayed with us for 6 weeks in 2017. She introduced me to Tex Mex Chicken Wraps and I haven’t looked back since! Catherine is from Texas in USA so she…
