I have had another nasty attack. This time it was a typo error when I meant “Steak”. This time I retaliated as she is a vile piece of crap. Sorry I’m not perfect I want to add I have had a stunning career as a chef starting with a blessed apprenticeship. I still teach. She is a vile piece of trash

I pressed another bench top oven into service today. I am now able to cook two lovely loafs at a time. Very pleased with the result.

Gourmet stake sandwich last night. I do enjoy giving an old favourite a makeover. Served with chips, my idea of pub grub

Platform 6# my way home. I like black & white photos as it shows things as they actually are. Even, the era that Flinders Street train station was built, contraction started in 1900 and opened to the public 1910.

I really love nature, I do put out extra food over the colder months. They become rather tame in not time.

First batch of burger buns are out of the oven now! Yum, the house smells so nice!

Helped out in a local hotel last night that needed a chef! Chaos, but lots of fun for me! I so enjoy cooking.

Really enjoying baking my own bread now. It has no preservatives, fresh and taste really good. It is sldo saving money as well. So all good. 🍞

Trams in front of Melbourne central. So glad the old shot tower was kept as a centrepiece of the shopping complex.

Into the LEGO shop in Melbourne today. Amazing what they create. I’m a big kid.

Went into the LEGO shop in Melbourne today. Even had a crack at the LEGO graffiti wall. It was fun.

A fresh batch of confit garlic made ✅I use so much of this along with gremolata on, or in my meals. So handy and a flavour blast to many dishes

A quick and reliable mushroom, leek, onion, pea, spinach risotto with a roast chicken Maryland. Perfect and great on a chilly autumn night in Melbourne.

Last nights dry roasted vegetables with falafel with toasted cumin, fennel and nigella seeds. You can’t see the tahini in shot. But gee a meat free night doesn’t have to be boring. Oh, and steamed corn cob.

Now I have picked this little beauty up today I’ll be doing the bike path along the beach, and “me” picnics!

This dam meat eater is at the vegetables again!

Tonight is vegetarian night, so off to the fresh market grocer. I’ll be dry roasting and topping with a little tahini and falafel balls. And it’s not because I had a vegan attack. Although most of them have no idea what to do with vegetables. Vegan means they don’t eat meat, often its no veg either

Flinders Street train station. Melbournes most recognised landmark probably

Bourke Street mall Melbourne. I do love a tram

I do love autumn in Melbourne. Here either have a tram which are iconic here. In the background is the magnificent Saint Paul’s cathedral.

Here we go again with I’m a murderer because I eat meat. Pass me the lentils please! It matters not that I eat a lot of fruit & vegetables only at meat 2-3 times a week! They can’t help themselves can they! Never a discussion or calmly selling the idea. Always bitchy!

I have a break from my diet on Sundays. But still a mountain of dry roasted vegetables which I love, with a beautiful pork chop. It was a beautiful meal.

More the merrier for a gathering I think.

Still lovely and warm at sunset after our BBQ last night.

Really enjoyed this beachside BBQ today. Again lots started at home and finished on the BBQ. Such a beautiful warm autumn day.

Another warm sunny autumn day here in Melbourne. Today it was a mountain of roast vegetables started at home. Marinated chicken drumettes & turkey wings, lamb chop and porterhouse stakes. And mushroom sauce. Great meal with my brother and friend. Glorious 20 degrees and sunshine. And cheeky beer.

Prepping at home and finishing the meal beachside with the aid of the BBQ. Bruschetta, chicken in filo with salad and Dijon & mushroom sauce, crepes with strawberries & black berries, fired in brandy. Served with Chantilly cream. A perfect autumn afternoon.

A cheeky roast duck dinner last night. It is in my top 3# of meats for me. With lots of market fresh vegetables

I take Sundays off from my diet. Today I reinstated breakfast in bed! I made it a banquet of naughty and healthy! Yum

I am happy to announce that test 4# of my white loaf has been successful. I am now satisfied that I can now bake bread for my household.

Last night, beef vindaloo, Panch Phoron 5# spice potatoes, pilaff rice, yogurt & naan bread. So nice on a cold night.

I make sure that I eat vegetarian a few times a week. It’s amazing what you can do with vegetables.

I make sure I also have strictly vegetarian meals a few tubes a week. I love it

OK I love vegetables as well, especially roasted with spices and herbs

This app is a nightmare for not adding likes and followers. And trying to get any support is a nightmare. As I have said before, it’s easier to get an audience with the Pope! I am just disgusted at this point. Any help would be so appropriate! Why is it so unstable?

OK, I can swap things out in my diet to sort out cholesterol & blood pressure. I do love vegetables, fruit & salad anyway. I’ll just lighten up on the duck and pork lol. But will have breaks on Sundays as my reward 😉

I have put myself onto a healthy start diet to reduce my collateral & blood pressure. So I am attempting to behave myself, but will be having a naughty break on Sundays! Although I do not see this lovely nursery rhyme breakfast as hardship served with my own fresh baked bread.

3rd test of bread making. It’s coming along now. Hopefully I will perfect it within days. I will then concentrate on other flours ect. I want to stop buying crappy expensive bread.

Pork belly anyone? With braised red cabbage and tart apple with a nice chunky mast & rich jus

Ahh, a rainy Sunday morning here in Melbourne. The weather has been perfect and sunny for at least two weeks, but my garden needs rain. Focusing on my baking skills now throughout autumn & winter. It will be a new class I develop. So relaxing and rewarding.

And the finish of the hourly chime ends. Melbourne central clock

The patriotic clock in Melbourne Central. Everybody seemed to love it.

Ahh, such a beautiful sound… I wish it was smell-a-vision. Beautiful day!

A realest BBQ, same again but different ingredients. I had to share as it was such a beautiful sunny autumn day here in Melbourne.

A beautiful BBQ overlooking the ocean. Great place to cook. Simple beef & chicken shashliks. This was a few days a go to test the public BBQ. Shame here in Australia you can’t have alcohol in public. A nice beer would have been fabulous on this 25 degrees day.

A beautiful full day of great company, fresh air and good food

History everywhere at the farm

Beautiful pond, crammed with fish including rainbow trout! Yum!

Eventually this became a BBQ, just give a chef fire!

Meeting two of the fifteen dogs! They are like bears, great fun
