Camping, camp food and other interesting stuff
Where has your favourite food-blogging filthy-mouthed pirate been? Been camping, that’s where. I guess the definition of camping could be a lot of different things to a lot of different people… much like the phrase “no, you may not enter through my back door”. For some it is a reason to avoid showering for a…

Ham Steaks with honey an’ shit
When I was a young lad (although I did get told I was still a young lad today… Granted it was by a sixty-something-year-old. I guess that shit is comparative to your current situation. What evs)… Anyway, when I was a child once a week we would have ham steaks with pineapple for dinner. Whoa.…

Paul’s Caul… Christmas not Xmas!!!
Christmas not Xmas!!!! I know its been way to long between posts, but its December and unless you haven’t been paying attention or maybe simply because you are a simpleton then you would know that December is completely bonkers.

Boys Night… Roast Pork in the Camp Oven
I know we’ve given you a bit of an amusingly-witty-great-food-cooking-blog overload today but… you’re just gonna have to deal with it. Write your local member of Parliament or something. Cookingfoodwithyourkidsisthebestshitever This evening the boys spent a fair while trying to decide if he said, “honey, don’t play with your food” or “Ted, don’t play with…

One Ingredient – Sweet and Savoury… The Choko
Extra language of the salty old sea dog alert. So I got my theme ingredient for the sweet and savoury challenge from my sister in law Liz. She is clearly trying to prove that in-laws are the nasty evil new-family-member-hating peeps they are made out to be. CHOKOS. I hate fucking chokos. I don’t mean…

My Nana Rose’s Pea and Ham Soup
I can remember the days when it seamed that everyone thought it was cool to throw rubbish from your car window (not at the drive through skip bin), and really cool to smoke cigarettes in the car with the kids in the back. A baby could be nursed in the front seat and even breastfed…
