Spiced lentil bowls with turmeric seeds
Ada’s been home from school the last week and a half with a yet-to-be-explained pain in her ankle, the same ankle she broke last year. It’s been a rough few days to say the least and I’m crossing every finger and toe it’s nothing long-term. Most days she’s not felt like eating much, but the […]
Thai red curry with asparagus + broccoli (gluten-free)
I recently came across an old interview I did a few years ago, from back when we still lived in Western Australia. In it I talked about our dreams of owning a small piece of land to call our own, our dreams of living off the land as much as possible, of harvesting from our […]
Coconut French toast with roasted rhubarb + hazelnut and orange dukkah (gluten + dairy-free) + a giveaway!

Vegan pumpkin, lentil + kale bake
So, um, that 5 month break from this site just kinda happened. I hadn’t intended to stay away from this space for so long but lets just say it’s been one hell of an eventful start to the year. If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram you may have already heard me talking about […]
