Old man’s day, aka father’s day
Firstly I should say that I really enjoy father’s day. I get presents and shit so it’s kinda like an extra birthday that I’ve managed to piggy back in with the birth of my first son* Sebastian. We also backed him up with the birth of our second son Obi, just in case Seba forgot.…

How to get a guy horizontal part II
FOOD TO GET A GUY HORIZONTAL part II As Pauly has already informed you, we have a request from an avid follower for a meal to cook a guy to get him horizontal* if you know what I mean. And not like rowies in his beer either. Lets get a little more creative and tap…

Cheats Apple Strudel-Hoffen
CHEATS APPLE STRUDEL-HOFFEN Why would I want to go and call it a “cheats” apple strudel-hoffen? And what’s the hoffen part all about? (I actually just think it sounds more authentically German/Austrian suffixed with hoffen). What’s cheating in the world of cooking? Cheating is telling someone you cooked dinner but actually you bought Hungry Jack’s.…

Fresh from the market and cooked at midnight by an Aussie rapper with a brim full of beer and cider, just to show you how easy this actually is. *As for right now, it is the next…

Burgers a la Jennee
; I am clearly not the only person who can cook in this household. And I am certainly not the only person who can cook a burger. Jen, my wife can cook. She is a damn fine cook actually. Until recently we had worked in kitchens together ever since we met (a lot depends on…

Another Effing Soup
Been a lot sick lately blah blah blah. Made a lot of soup blah blah. Can’t have too much soup blah blah blah. Here’s another blah blah blah. This is my take on a Moroccan chickpea, lentil and tomato soup called Harira. Which sounds a little bit like hurry up. Which you cannot do when…

Pauly’s Soup Challenge
The proof is in the pudding… or soup I guess. Here is the soup challenge that Pauly (from Paul’s Caul fame) threw down last week. If he was a doubter of the integrity of the readers of this blog he shalt be a believer from this day forward. The only real problem is that the…

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…
