Conjunctivitis has confined us to quarters. I lost my tiny little mind last night and threatened the Ankle Biters with mutilation politely asked the Ankle Biters to clean up their mess. It’s too wet to garden. All in all we’re having a slow and lazy Sunday morning. Which is nice.
We’ve been on a pancake frenzy […]

The Perfect Scrambled Egg
Posted in Cooking basics on Jul 22nd, 2008
It’s possible that I often mention scrambled eggs. Or maybe not. What is certain is that I eat them a lot. They’re my staple weekend breakfast and I often make myself a serving for lunch too. Perfect after a cold morning in the pool. In fact, Lil Miss and I had scrambled eggs with feta […]
Hair and Porridge
Posted in Breakfast on Jul 20th, 2008
Porridge is quite the popular topic at the moment. Wonderful warming stuff that it is. Before I give you my method, I must emphasise that they key for me is thick cut oats. The thicker the better.

Beyond Porridge
Posted in Breakfast, Vegetarian on Jul 18th, 2008
Porridge is our weekday staple, particularly in the cooler months. We never eat porridge on the weekends though. Never. I think there may even be an unwritten rule against it. Or maybe even written. Maybe I just wrote it.

Posted in Reviews on Jun 24th, 2008
Obviously, one of the best breakfasts a mother of young Ankle Biters can have is one eaten in the absence of Ankle Biters. So on Sunday, in celebration of my lovely SIL Karen’s birthday, 8 such mothers descended on Apte for a leisurely breakfast.
Not the first time I have breakfasted there and I have mentioned […]
Berry bloody good
Posted in Breakfast on May 12th, 2008
Breakfast can be such a boring rut. Now the weather has turned colder I seem to have left muesli behind and I need something to break the weekday porridge monotony. So I was a very happy puppy when I was sorting through old cook books and found this little number. I used frozen berries, defrosted […]
Holiday Day Three
Posted in Breakfast, Budget, Carnivorous, Leftovers, Lunch, Salads & Vegetables on Jan 21st, 2008
Day Three in Sydney and a continuation of Holiday Meal Planning.
I had to do a small shopping top up last night, I bought more bread, eggs, rocket and a massive bunch of coriander. Most of which is already gone. I’m going to have to hit the supermarket again in the next day or so.
Meal […]
