Wooli part 4… Cervapcici (Skinless Sausages)
These are some tasty little Croatian/Serbian (I certainly won’t be taking sides in that one) sausages. Tasty little skinless sausages, much like circumcised penises except tastier… not that I would know. No circumcised throbbing member for me, thank you. Cevapcici sure. Throbbing member no thank you. It is suggested that a fitting accompaniment to these…

Wooli part 1… Steak with Blue Cheese Sauce
We’ve hit Wooli. No not wooly, Wooli. Wooly is something like slippers or a word that is like verbal Viagra to a Kiwi. So Wooli, another of those cracking little seaside towns the boys and I like to frequent on my annual break. We have arrived at our little holiday shack which is adorned in…

Chicken, potato and black pepper curry… and my freezing fingers
It’s early in the a.m. Like, really early. Like, there is no chance that the sun shall be reprieving the moon of his night duties anytime soon. Nope, the moon has still got a good hour to go on the night shift, so that lad may as well go and get himself another cup of…

The Silence of the Boys Eating the Lambs… Well, the lamb’s belly anyhow
I ventured into the shop of my local purveyor of quality meats a while back to procure my good person a quantity bacon for the impending bacon week celebrations, when I noticed the butcher was taking the bellies off some lambs. “Nice lamb Graeme”, he said to me. “Looks very nice Scotty”, I replied. “How…

Au Revoir Madame Emma… Coq au Vin and other French Goodies
My diary. Monday 30th June, 2014 I had a plan. Note; I said had. Today is my day off. No work, no school duties because it is now school holidays (more on that later) and some quiet time with my MacBook Air, finishing a few of the stories I have in my almost ready pile…

More Bacon Week Goodness… Pan de bono with bacon
Doing my bit for Bacon Week As I mentioned in my last post, it is Bacon Week. So aside from just eating (I really don’t wish to make this task seem menial or mundane, as it is something that always fills my heart with joy) my favourite cured pork product, or quite possibly even my…

Marinated sardines
I am obsessed with sardines. There you go. I said it. That statement is for everyone I hang out with, work with, my family and the old lady down the street at number 42 for being forced to listen to my constant talk about the next meal I’m going to create with sardines. You may…

Sri Lankan Pork and Black Pepper Curry
I have had difficulty coming up with an amusing anecdote to go with this one… no stories of drunken shenanigans with carnival folk… no nothing really. I guess I could tell you about my day but as it has only consisted of mowing the lawn and putting a lemongrass plant in the ground I…

Lamb shanks… and the start of winter
It is officially winter. Well, if you are one of the approximately 740 million people living in the southern hemisphere it is officially winter. The nights have got cold. Cold like Tony Abbott’s bed (and if that isn’t cold by now it damn well should be), but the days… the days are still kissing our…

Jennee’s Sunday Spread… Beetroot curry a la Peter Kuruvita and some damn fine spiced potato cakes
This week Jennee thought she would do her regular Sunday cook-up in Saturday as she had a date with another purdy girl, for her birthday, on Sunday. Also, she was, how you say (an Eastern European accent works well here), champing at the bit to redeem herself after not really being in any kind of…
