I wrote about Danish butter cookies in the previous post on comfort food (I really must get a tin of butter cookies soon!). Do any of you remember these little beauties? When I was a kid, these were another special treat. I think they’re known to many people as “little gems” or “gem biscuits”. I […]
Regular readers know how much I love chicken. A good chicken sandwich or chicken roll is one of my favourite lunches. The chicken strip roll from 88 Royal lunch bar (88a Royal St, East Perth) is always tasty. They make it to order – they slice up a crusty bread roll, add butter, mayonnaise, lettuce, […]
This was a chicken and vegetable stir-fry with chilli and basil Jac cooked recently. The chilli was fresh out of our garden. It was a delicious dinner.

I wish wish wish they’d bring back the crumbed bananas – Hawaiia…

One morning on my way to work I saw people in the city dressed as hippies, running around and handing out these little packets. It was the first day of spring, and this was a “spring lamb” promotion. In the little baggies was rosemary, which we’re supposed to to flavour our spring lamb with. What […]
