Real Food. Real Life. A Little Thermomix Magic.

Welcome! I’m Sue — Thermomix enthusiast, enthusiastic feeder of family and friends, and firm believer that good food doesn’t need to be complicated.

Together with Chris, I spend a lot of time in the kitchen turning everyday ingredients into easy, healthy meals that actually work in real life. No fancy chef skills required — just great recipes, a trusty Thermomix, and a willingness to experiment (occasionally successfully).

You’ll find plenty of our favourite recipes here, a few shortcuts to make life easier, and the odd kitchen discovery that becomes a household staple.

And yes… I’m back on WW 🙋‍♀️ Starting weight was 76.6kg. (Jan 2026)
Because somewhere along the way I got a little lazy, things slipped, and I never quite made it to goal.

But I’m back, baby — heading in the right direction again! This time it’s all about balance, consistency, and still enjoying the food I love.

So pull up a chair, grab your Thermomix, blender, air fryer or whatever else you use, and let’s cook, laugh, and make a little progress together.

Xavier requested a Spider-Man cake, so that’s exactly what he got. A @funkybatter vanilla cake layered with Biscoff and covered in silky Funkybatter buttercream — because we don’t do boring birthdays around here.

Red and blue were the order of the day, but it needed a little extra magic… so I added chocolate webs 🕸️, spiders and the cake topper to finish it off.

Safe to say it was a hit. Full tummies, happy faces and a very proud birthday boy.

And the last photo? A little tradition — the birthday creations I’ve made for Xavier over the years. Watching them grow (and their cake requests get more specific!) is one of my favourite things. ❤️

Muggy Melbourne turned full Bali vibes today 🌦️🌴

Chris, Sue & Roby and I hit St Kilda for a little seaside reset. First stop — the Espy for a cooling drink, live music and that unbeatable beachfront energy. Nothing quite like sitting watching the world roll by.

Then onto Acland Street for lunch at Rococo (OMG yum 🤌🏼). Risotto, laughter, and that “we should do this more often” feeling.

We wrapped it up with a stroll back to the car… accompanied by “passing showers” that absolutely committed to the bit 😂 Safe to say the ground (and our clothes) got properly christened.

Hot, humid, slightly chaotic and completely perfect.

Melbourne, you keep us guessing — and we wouldn’t have it any other way. 💛
You know what’s kinda scary with this, it is almost like ChatGPT has a photo on my desk!! Even the photo on the desk - I have one my of kids that you can hardly see. And yes, this is how I work and those post it notes are so accurate 🙀 it looks as scattered as my brain is some days haha 😝 Well done #chatgpt
Today we celebrated Billy’s 31st birthday a couple of days early, and of course it had to include a quick Pokémon cake for his latest obsession 🎂

This beauty was whipped up in just 2.5 hours. A vanilla @funkybatter cake with Nutella centres and finished with FunkyBatter buttercream.

Despite the 32 degree heat, that buttercream held up like an absolute champ 🙌

I also got to test out my new birthday gift from the family, an automatic cake icing machine. So easy to use and once I perfect it, I’ll be icing cakes in the blink of an eye.

Happy almost birthday Billy 💙

Enjoy your week, everyone! 💛

Skipped the Friday night meal plan because we went out for dinner… I did manage a solid WW choice with grilled barramundi, but seriously—why do pubs insist on putting chips on your plate no matter what? You can’t ignore them! 😅

Tonight, though, dinner was back on track with Anna’s Chicken Mango Salad with Citrus Dressing—and as always, it did not disappoint. That dressing is absolute heaven 👌🏼 Super fresh, super tasty… everything you want on a warm summer night! ☀️🥗

✨ Side note: We’ve just booked Bali for August/September this year—3 weeks of pure relaxation. Can’t wait! 🏝️✈️ I have Noosa at the end of the month too (it is a business trip with a little bit of fun thrown in 😉)

#wwmealplan #weightlossjourney #bali2026trip
Tonight’s dinner was Anna’s Tuna Patties, made in our trusty Thermomix (of course 😄). Only 4 WW points for the whole meal. I paired them with a quick mix of whatever I had in the fridge and pantry—cabbage, homegrown radishes, corn, and chickpeas with a light mayo dressing.

I tried air-frying the tuna patties tonight… would I do it again? Probably not—they came out a bit dry. Definitely worth taking the extra time to lightly pan-fry them instead.

All in all, a super filling dinner, and those patties? Absolutely delicious! 😋

Tonight’s dinner was straight from our weekly meal plan 🙌 WW Beef Mince Chow Mein — and wow, it did not disappoint.

I started cooking it during my lunch break and finished it just in time for dinner (love a head start!). It’s so easy to make, absolutely packed with veggies, and the flavour is just beautiful 😍

The recipe calls for 2 packets of chicken noodle soup, but I personally find that a bit too salty — even the salt-reduced ones. I use less and then just add a small splash of soy sauce when serving, which works perfectly for us.

Highly recommend this one 👌
Even better… it reheats beautifully the next day, so hello leftovers! 💚🥢

#wwrecipes #weightwatchersjourney #ww
🌟 Day 1 of our weekly meal plan! 🌟

We kicked things off with the Creamy Chicken & Mushroom Hot Pot from the WW App/recipe book/website, and wow… it never disappoints 😋✨. Creamy, comforting, and packed with flavour — it’s quick, easy, and honestly, I can’t recommend it enough!

Confession time: I ended up eating one and a half servings tonight because I was starving — which is so unlike me! I’ve felt hungry all day, and this meal hit the spot perfectly.

If you’re looking for a meal that’s cozy, satisfying, and WW-friendly, this is your new go-to 🍽️💛

My weekend♥️
Family, soccer, friends, city, cleaning and planning.
If there’s one thing that keeps me grounded during the week, it’s having a rough meal plan in place. And when I say rough, I mean weekday dinners only — because let’s be honest, weekends are a whole different vibe. Doing Weight Watchers WW – I need to be accountable, and this helps me so much!!

I’ve now written two full weeks of meal plans, and it’s been such a game changer for me. Not just for staying on track with Weight Watchers, but for saving time, mental energy, and those dreaded “what’s for dinner?” conversations at 5:47pm or later 😳

Recipes are from the WW App/Book/website, @feedmehealthy_annavandyken website and ours. 

See more info on our website 

#ww #weightwatchers #mealplan #wwmealplan
I’ve started back on WW because it’s what I know works for me, and I’m really happy with my progress over the past week. I also weigh in daily — it helps me see where I’m at, spot patterns, and understand how my eating choices show up on the scales ⚖️. It’s not about obsessing; it’s about awareness. Staying focused, accountable, and tracking everything keeps me on track and moving forward.

#weighloss #ww #weightwatchers #wwlifestyle wwsisterhood
Well, here I am again… kicking off 2026 by heading back to WW! Why WW? Because I actually get it. I know so many of the points without even looking and, honestly, it just works for me. I’ve put on a bit of weight lately and I’m not loving it — so 2026 is going to be MY year in more ways than one.

And hey, why not start a little early? Tonight’s dinner was a simple, super satisfying salad for just 7 points. The protein surprised me though!
	•	Ingham Chicken Chippees – 50g: 4 points
	•	Wholemeal & Quinoa Chicken Tenders (Costco) – 100g: 3 points

So tasty, so filling… and such an easy way to ease back into it!

Merry Christmas everyone!! Thank you to all my family for making today special. The grandchildren are Christmas ♥️🎄♥️
I just want to say a huge thank you to everyone for the beautiful messages, texts, phone calls and posts for my birthday.

I honestly had the most amazing day! Thank you to my wonderful family and friends for making it all feel so special — the flowers, the gifts, the chats and all the laughs… it was perfect.

A special shout-out to Chris and Sue for organising everything and making the day extra lovely.

And to Chris and my kids (Daniel, Gina, Elizabeth & Billy) … my gift absolutely blew me away. Thank you from the bottom of my heart ♥️ it was truly a shock!!
Don’t you just love it when clients — or friends — ask you to make a cake, even though it’s not your profession? Ask me for a website and I’m all over it. Cakes, though? That’s my guilty pleasure.

Alex came to me with zero preconceived ideas and left it completely in my hands.

And so, a @funkybatter Cookies & Cream cake came to life, using their incredible Battercream — finished in classic black and white for a proud Collingwood supporter. The family were absolutely over the moon with the result and said it tasted totally delicious! 🎂🖤🤍

I love it when things just work.
Thank you @alexmorganpsychicmedium for trusting me with your dad’s beautiful cake. 🎂

✨ Grilled Salmon with Burrata & Rocket Salad ✨
Paired with oven baked Zucchini in a Parmesan Crumb – this dinner is as delicious as it looks!

Our salmon was coated with a spicy-sweet mix of 1 tbsp steak seasoning + 1 tbsp brown sugar. Press it into the top of each fillet and air fry at 190°C for 10 minutes – the result? Perfectly juicy salmon with a caramelised crust. 😋

For the zucchini: slice into rounds, whisk 1 egg, and in another bowl mix equal parts panko crumbs and Parmesan. Dip each slice into egg, then crumb. Lay in a single layer on a rack and bake at 200°C for 15 minutes, flip, then bake for another 5–7 minutes until golden and crisp.

Plate it up with fresh rocket and creamy burrata, drizzle with a touch of olive oil and cracked pepper, and dinner is served!

Highly recommended ✨

A wedding cake crafted with love — three tiers of Funkybatter magic for my darling niece’s most enchanting day. Layers of red velvet, salted caramel, and vanilla silk crème, each one embraced in the signature FB Battercream, like a sweet embrace of celebration.

We journeyed (with cake in tow) to Avalon Castle in Cockatoo, Victoria — a fairytale setting hidden away, where the skies blessed us with perfect weather. Lukasz made his grand entrance in a fire truck, and then Caitlin appeared — radiant, glowing, the very vision of a beautiful bride.

The day was a dream, woven with joy and love at every turn. Thank you, my dearest Caitlin and Lukasz, for allowing me to create a piece of your story. My heart is so full knowing this cake was shared with everyone in the laughter, love, and magic of your day/night. ✨💒 🍰

✨ While baking this very special wedding cake for my niece, something extraordinary happened—every single egg I cracked (11) revealed a double yolk. Traditionally, they’re seen as symbols of luck, prosperity, fertility, and beautiful new beginnings. It felt as though a quiet blessing was being folded into the batter, layer by layer. 

A gentle reminder that love is meant to be shared, and that the sweetest journeys in life are made in pairs. 💛🍰✨

Tomorrow is the big day to put all those layers together. Funky Batter Red Velvet Base, Salted Caramel middle and Vanilla on top! This will be paired in the layers with a vanilla bean silken crème and @kokoblackchocolate dark chocolate shavings. Of course it will be encased in Funkybatters amazing white Buttercream, gold and pearls.

What a blast we had this morning at Bulla Hill Miniature Railway! 🚂 Such a fantastic family outing. Even though I built and manage their website (so I thought I knew it all!), actually hopping on the ride blew me away. I always assumed it was just for kids, but wow—what an experience! The track is full of little surprises to spot, and the views over Bulla (including that gorgeous yellow tree 🌳💛) are just magic. Huge thanks to the amazing volunteers who give their time to keep this place running—it’s pure joy on rails. Definitely a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ recommendation!
Today, a sweet surprise was delivered to my daughter’s workplace for a special colleague’s birthday. The little piggies on top were a playful secret between them. 🐷💖

The cupcakes? FunkyBatter’s pistachio batter paired with @funkybatter dreamy FluffCrème. Oh. My. Goodness. I think I’ve just found my new all-time favourite flavour combo—and judging by the empty box, everyone else agreed. Absolutely amazing! 🤩

Spent our Saturday exploring the city again — and what a day! We kicked things off with drinks at @bearbrassbar (highly recommend the elderflower & basil spritz — seriously the best), then made our way to dinner at @thegnocchiproject. If you haven’t been yet, do yourself a favour and check it out. Absolutely delicious.

The city was buzzing — packed with people, good vibes everywhere. We wandered through the streets soaking it all in before heading to a spot that’s been on our list for a while: @kumo_au. And wow — it did not disappoint. We only had to queue for a short time, then we were in and treated to the most incredible dessert bar. The staff were so lovely — genuinely enjoying what they do, which made the experience even better. And the pancakes? No words. Just amazing.

Afterwards, we took a stroll to walk off all the food. As we passed St Francis Catholic Church, we noticed a black crow perched quietly, just enjoying the night. A bit unexpected, but kind of magical.

We wrapped things up wandering along Southbank back to the car, feeling full, happy, and grateful for such a great night out
We had a delicious dinner tonight, courtesy of @recipe_tin's Creamy Fish on Potatoes recipe by Nagi! 😋 Our Thermomix cookware allowed for easy one-pan cooking. The meal's creamy and crunchy elements complemented each other perfectly. We paired it with steamed vegetables, a classic favourite. Highly recommended! To make it my own, I reduced the butter, opted for light cream, and used half the EVOO. The meal's total calorie count was 467.
A 3 year old's dream birthday unfolded yesterday, complete with a Paw Patrol cake, a cool new 4x4 ride on, and wonderful presents 🎁 friends and family. Happy Birthday darling Ivy. So glad you had a wonderful day ♥️♥️♥️
✨ Dinner tonight was a winner! ✨ We made Jamie Oliver’s Fantastic Fish Pie 🐟🥧 and it did not disappoint. Creamy, comforting, and full of flavour — this dish instantly took me back to childhood memories of Mum’s salmon kedgeree 💛

There’s something so nostalgic about a fish pie — the crispy golden top, the rich filling, the feeling of being wrapped in a warm food hug. Just what you need on a cold winters night.

If you’re craving comfort food that hits the spot, this is it. Thanks Jamie — you’ve done it again! 👏

Tonight’s dinner was the ultimate comfort food – Easy Cheesy French Onion Chicken Bake from Anna’s website. @feedmehealthy_annavandyken 

It’s one of our all-time favourites – rich, full of flavour, and irresistibly delicious. That golden, cheesy top gets us every time! We always serve it with creamy mashed potatoes and a side of steamed veggies. Simple, hearty, and oh-so-satisfying. Comfort food done right. 💛🍽️ Calories: 500 for my meal.

A light dinner tonight after spending the day exploring Living Legends at Woodlands Historic Park in Greenvale.

Wow 🤩 Anna’s PEACH & CHERRY CRUMBLES are next level! I split it into 4 serves so we can enjoy it all over again tomorrow 😍

When I first made this, I wasn’t sure the crumble would be enough for the fruit… but it was perfect. Now it is my go to dessert. Sweet and healthy and only 300 calories for a large serve. 

Huge thanks to Anna for this beautiful recipe! It’s from her second book 💛✨ @feedmehealthy_annavandyken

It’s been way too long since I made this Chicken, Spinach & Leek Risotto — and I forgot how much I love it! 💚🍚

I used to avoid it because WW had it super high in points, but after crunching the macros and calories myself, it actually stacks up really well:

✨ 322 cals
🍗 29g protein
🥑 20g fat
🌱 3g total carbs

I’m not on WW anymore, so can’t give you the points — but trust me, it’s so worth it. Comfort food done right! 🙌

Salmon Bowl – Simply Delicious! 😋
This one’s been a long-time favourite in our house, usually made with bite-sized pieces. But tonight, I went with whole fillets – and I’m so glad I did! The salmon turned out perfectly cooked and absolutely full of flavour.

Calories: 666 | WW Points: 15

Why am I comparing the two? I’m just testing what works best for me on this weight loss journey. Time will tell which one makes the biggest difference!

For the salmon
500g salmon fillet ,
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp ground ginger
salt or sea salt , to taste
cracked black pepper , to taste
For the sauce
1/4 cup Soy sauce
3 tbsp honey
1 tsp Sesame Oil
1-2 tsp Sriracha
1 tsp rice wine vinegar or 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar

Mix the seasonings and coat the fish
Mix the sauce and pour over the fish
Sit for 20 mins in the fridge (it taste better if you do wait 20-30 mins but not essential)

Airfry : 5 mins - Baste fish; 5 mins - eat

It was giving @feedmehealthy_annavandyken energy today! I did the unthinkable… went to the supermarket (yes, for those that know, me – shocking, I know) and actually came home inspired to cook. I needed lunch. I needed dinner. And let’s be honest – I desperately needed something sweet for my nightly peppermint tea ritual.

So I got my head in the game, channeled my inner kitchen ninja, and 40 minutes later – BAM – all done! Couldn’t have done it without my trusty #Thermomix. Seriously, it’s like having a tiny, efficient sous chef who never complains.

Right now, I’m playing around with WW vs calorie counting to see what works best for me. I’m using @mynetdiary and honestly, loving it so far! Let’s see where this little experiment takes me…

Slow Cooker Thai Peanut Chicken – absolutely delicious! I can’t recommend it enough. It’s 9 WW points and honestly, worth every single bite.

I used lite coconut cream and about 200g of peanut butter, but next time I’ll cut the peanut butter back a bit—it was a little thick for my taste.

I tossed in some red capsicum this time, but next round I’ll be adding broccoli and snow peas for extra colour and crunch. Definitely give this one a go!

Just finished making Smitty's Melbourne Storm ⚡️ birthday cake and I'm so happy with how it turned out! 

Using @funkybatter's recipes, I created a Cookies & Cream cake with Dark Chocolate Ganache and battercream. The ganache was a revelation - the flavour was out of this world! 

Smitty was overjoyed with his surprise cake and everyone raved about it. I love making cakes, it's a labour of love that's both calming and rewarding.

I had the joy of making this beautiful Sunshine cake for my daughter’s friend, Danielle, to celebrate a very special day—her son Elijah’s first birthday and Christening, all in one! Talk about smart parenting!

My daughter Elizabeth had the honour of being his Godmother for the occasion.

The cake itself was a Funkybatter creation—vanilla with a decadent Biscoff and Koko Black dark chocolate shard center, all wrapped in luscious Funkybatter battercream. It was inspired by Elizabeth & Billy’s wedding cake, which Danielle and Deon absolutely loved!
I had the pleasure of making my granddaughters first birthday cake for her party today. Daisy’s are my favourite flower and do make this cake for Sofia was so much fun. The day was lovely with all the family and friends there. Sofia loved her cake too 🎂 

The cake was a @funkybatter Lemon cake with battercream icing. I must say, Lemon is my absolute favourite flavour. It started off rocky as I have somehow Iost a lot of my cake tools. After baking Elizabeth and Billy’s wedding cake they have just gone!! We tore the house apart looking for them but they are just not here. Getting the cake level on the top was super hard but I got there in the end. It all worked out fine - in the end

Dinner tonight was an absolute winner—just 8 WW points and worth every bite! I came across this recipe while doom-scrolling one night and thought, YUM! So, I gave it a go with a few tweaks—swapped in light cream and used only 2 teaspoons of butter instead of tablespoons. It probably would have been even creamier, but honestly, it was plenty creamy for me! Super delicious, quick (only 30 minutes to cook!), and definitely one I’ll be making again. Total win! Recipe in photos and sorry I can’t credit anyone for it. I didn’t get that part. 

I know I’ve been a bit MIA lately—sorry about that! Life has been non-stop with work deadlines and my daughter’s wedding coming up in just over three weeks. Meal planning and prep have gone out the window, and it’s been all about quick meals and eating out.

On top of that, I’ve got a lot of baking ahead:
🎂 A Cars-themed cake for a 3rd birthday
🎂 My daughter’s wedding cake
🎂 A birthday cake for the same day
🎂 A 1st birthday cake for my granddaughter
🎂 Another 1st birthday cake for a friend’s son

It’s full steam ahead in the kitchen! Wish me luck!
