Christmas is one of my favourite holidays. I love getting gifts for people I care about, spending time with family and, perhaps best of all, the seasonal treats! Although Australia gets a hot Christmas, with sand as snow, I am a sucker for a warm cup of tea or piping hot chocolate. I do love…… Continue reading Favourite Festive Sips

Progressive Lunch or Mad Rush?
Recently, a foodie friend and I enjoyed a progressive lunch at Portside Wharf. The food was amazing, but the time between meals and the serving sizes left us in a food coma by the end of it! While it was great to go to so many restaurants I have been itching to try, there were…… Continue reading Progressive Lunch or Mad Rush?
The Cake is a Lie
Finally, the first post in my video game series! I actually did this weeks ago, but haven’t had a chance to properly edit and write up something until now. This cake was very much about the look and I was also baking it for people with certain dietary needs (low sugar, no dairy), so I…… Continue reading The Cake is a Lie
Dreams Come True at The Grounds
This past week I have been road tripping with my husband in New South Wales. Family from his mother’s side live in the Southern Highlands and we were invited to his cousin’s wedding on the Saturday, so we thought we would make an adventure out of it and drive there and back. Our itinerary included…… Continue reading Dreams Come True at The Grounds
I Moved, I Baked, I Bought
We moved into our new home almost two weeks ago. It’s about 15 minutes away from our old place but instead of a unit, it’s a huge two-storey house with a stunning outdoor space! And it’s basically our dream home. I mean, look at the view from my desk: Perhaps one of the only downsides…… Continue reading I Moved, I Baked, I Bought
Tavalon Tea Trip
In case you didn’t know, I am pretty obsessed with tea. So when Tavalon Tea invited me to their cafe in Garden City for some tea and sweets I said yes quicker than lightning! I visited the venue when the lounge first opened last year and loved their food and beverage offerings, even taking some…… Continue reading Tavalon Tea Trip
Video Game Dishes I Wish Were Real
It’s been a while dear readers! But there’s a reason for that… getting married, job changes and a new house (that we are moving into in a couple weeks!) have all put my true love, writing, on the back-burner (pun intended). And so, I’ve decided to start writing again, with a vengeance. And with this…… Continue reading Video Game Dishes I Wish Were Real
Being environmentally friendly foodie during Plastic Free July
It’s been two weeks since Plastic Free July kicked off. In June, I found out about the initiative while scrolling through Twitter. I have been using a reusable coffee cup and tea flask for months now, as well as slowly bringing in other initiatives but the opportunity to really commit was exciting, so I signed…… Continue reading Being environmentally friendly foodie during Plastic Free July
Into the Hellmouth at Netherworld
If you have been following me for a while, you would probably know that when someone says hellmouth, my first thoughts are Buffy the Vampire Slayer. And in this case, the correlation is not so thin. Netherworld, a gaming arcade and geek bar in Fortitude Valley, is a great venue that plays host to lots…… Continue reading Into the Hellmouth at Netherworld
Magic at Messina Creative Department
Last month I got to go to foodie heaven at Messina Creative Department. For the month of February, the seven-course degustation experience called Brisbane home and we were lucky enough to grab a spot. Set in a private room with dimmed lighting (great for mood, not for photography!), each booking seats just 12 people. The chef…… Continue reading Magic at Messina Creative Department
