So I was getting organised for the week ahead by doing my food prep and decided I'd whip up something delicious and healthy to hit the sweet spot. I have been craving A LOT of naughty food lately and needed to make some healthy snacks to stop me from going to town on a block of chocolate! I had some Loving Earth Coconut Paste in the pantry that was getting close to its use by date that I didn't want to go to waste, so I figured...
If you need an escape from the demanding, hectic hustle that is your day to day routine, the one that makes you want to tear your hair out and throw your mobile phone in the water to exclude yourself from reality at times, there's no need! The Shacky, perched up in the centre of a beautiful, secluded and incredibly tranquil Olive Grove in Victorias stunning country side is literally off the grid! no reception to be found unless you wander up the top of the surrounding hills - this may freak some people out, but to me it was so perfect! Sayonara frustrating work calls, spammy emails and calendar notifications setting your daily schedule out for you from the minute...
Spring is here! Spring is hands down my favourite time of the year - flowers are blossoming, all of the much loved fruit and veg are coming in to season, the skies are blue (mostly) and the mild temperatures are welcomed with open arms after a long freezing cold Winter! One thing I especially love about Spring is the fact that the herb garden and veggie patch are looking voluminous, colourful and healthy! It is also a great time to get them up and running if you hadn't previously had a veg/herb/fruit garden - this means beautiful, fresh leafy greens, salads, fresh fruits and plenty of veggies to stock up the pantry and get cooking! Doing plenty of cooking and being creative with food is...
Spring is certainly a wonderful time of the year in Country Victoria; there's nothing more beautiful than healthy, green landscapes, blossoming flora, the smell of sun showers on the warm soil and people mowing their lawns, maintaining their blooming gardens in preparation to start spending more time outdoors now that the weather is more mild. Any wonder Spring is the popular season for weddings!
One place I find particularly beautiful, especially at this time of the year is Bright in North-East Victorias High Country. Bright is surrounded by Alpine Ranges and is the base of Mountains popular for hiking and snow skiing. It is still quite chilly in the early stages of Spring being so close to the snow capped mountains, but when the sun is...
A question I get asked A LOT from both locals and tourists alike is.. 'What Pub would you recommend going to to get a good Chicken Parmy in town?' So.. Myself and a team of trustworthy taste testing recruits have recently set out to put a number of local Pubs that serve the old faithful, much loved, traditional Chicken Parmy to the test! and here is the final verdict - Parmys from the following restaurants came in as the favourites..5 to 1

The Yarrawonga Hotel -35 Belmore Street, Yarrawonga VIC'The VIC' as the locals call it serve up my personal favourite chips! they're always crunchy and delicious with plenty of flavour! Their Parmy is pretty stock standard, yummy served with either salad or...
