Over the Easter weekend my parents and I took a road trip to Canberra to visit my sister, and I’m ashamed to say it was my first visit to our nation’s capital! This is particularly bad given I am an urban planner and wrote many an essay on Canberra’s beginnings during my uni days. We had an excellent weekend exploring much of what Canberra had to offer, so I thought I would share some of the highlights here, so on to my Weekend Adventures: Canberra!
I recently bought a waffle maker on a bit of a whim and after enjoying having waffles for breakfast for a few weekends I decided to branch out into the savoury waffle world as well. These zucchini corn waffles have become a firm favourite as they are delicious at all times of the day! I’ve had them as a savoury breakfast, a light lunch and even dinner with a large heaping of salad. Hard to beat that!
Welcome to my April Foodie Files interview! This month I chatted to Nicole from Champagne & Chips, a wonderful food and wine blogger from Melbourne who I have had the pleasure of meeting a few times now! Her recipes are always so delicious looking, and she really knows her stuff when it comes to wine (she’s even studying it right now!) so if you’re not already following Nicole’s adventures I highly recommend you start now!
I last did one of these taking stock posts at the end of last year, so as the first quarter of 2016 comes to a close I thought it was an excellent time to do it again! For those of you that haven’t seen these taking stock posts before, they were started by Pip from Meet Me At Mikes & they are a great way to stop and reflect. Let me know if you do one too, I’d love to come have a read!
These walnut brownies were whipped up for the same fundraising afternoon tea that I took the lemon coconut cupcakes to and they were as equally well received! They are seriously fudgey and chocolatey and I try to pretend that the walnuts make them healthy but I’d be kidding myself if I actually believed that! They are delicious though!
