Balsamic beetroot salad with fried beetroot leaves, quinoa, soft feta, cherry tomatoes and herbs
I sit back today, slowly winding down and reflecting on my week so far… and by that I mean I am in bed, sick, sore and whining like the small child who needs his mothers boobie. Dammit, I do need my mother’s boobie… Actually that would be a little sick, but probably encouraged in many…

Stuffed zucchini flowers with cherry tomato and herb salsa… fresh from the garden I might add
Our garden is being particularly nice to us at the moment. Not nice like helping out with the washing, or dropping the kids at school, or watering our pet carnies, but nice in a way that only a garden can; by producing an abundance of fresh vegetables that we get to use in our meals…

Foodisthebestshitever reunion dinner/pissup part 2… Paul’s Caul and a nice spice rub

The place looked like a fucking recycling depot. There was ginger beer, wine, various other beers, more wine and…

Robina Yum Cha and the continuation of Jennee’s Birthday
Anyone who knows me, or thinks they know me, or follows my life through the misty little second story bathroom window that is this blog, will know two things. That I am a fan of the yum cha, and that one day of birthday celebrations is never enough. There are yet undiscovered tribes of pygmies…

Paul’s Caul… Holiday State of Mind
How good are holidays? Seriously everything changes the second you begin whatever adventure you have planned… if it’s a car trip then the simple pleasure of stopping in a servo to buy a cheese sausage or if you are going a bit further then it may be the dodgy airplane food… either way I effing…

A week in the life of Paul’s Caul… Experimenting with men…
What a week of experimenting, playing and generally just having a red hot go…no this has nothing to do with what went on with that boy at school camp, this was last week at work for me and I really do count myself extremely lucky to be able to describe a weeks work in such…

Tofu pad thai for meat free week days…
Sinking into the depths of a meatless existence. My old life seems further and further away. Sometimes I dream about a summer’s day. Everyone is in the backyard, I can hear the laughter of friends and family, the barbeque is smoking away and we jokingly do “I hate rabbits”* as the smoke blows in our…
