Clean Your Thermomix

Clean Your Thermomix

What? You can remove the grey backing plate? Were you aware that you can easily "dismantle" (remove the backing plate)  your Thermomix for cleaning purposes? Removing the backing plate makes life easier for cleaning. I recently shared what I thought was a straightforward post detailing how I tackled the task of cleaning my Thermomix after a lengthy cooking session. To my surprise, many were ...

A 2 year old’s Bluey Cake

A 2 year old’s Bluey Cake

Xavier's 2nd BirthdayI was asked if I could make some cupcakes for a very special 2 year old's birthday. Of course I immediately said yes. When I enquired about the cake they were having, they said they thought just cup cakes would do. No No No! Not when I am here. So I set about making a "Bluey Birthday Cake"  Not knowing anything about Bluey (Oh my, did you know Bluey was a girl!) I delved ...

First real weigh-in after two months, and it’s back to business! It’s been a bit of a rollercoaster—up, down, up, down—but here we are, down 300g. I’ve watched the daily and weekly fluctuations without much change, but honestly, it could have been much worse. With birthdays, weddings, stress, outings, and plenty of food, I’m happy to take that 300g loss as a win!

When asked by Elizabeth and Billy to make their Wedding Cake I felt so privileged. What an honour. 

Meticulous planning for just the right size without too much was the task at hand. Flavour choices were made. Vanilla cake with @lotusbiscoffus centre and dark chocolate shavings of @kokoblackchocolate 

Of course the main source was @funkybatter amazing recipes for the cake and battercream. Honestly they are THE BEST recipes. The cake would not have survived the trip to Torquay had it not been made in these. The battercream held up perfectly in 28 degree heat. 👌🏼 

The cake topper by @eventstobeau was perfection. Just was the couple wanted. Simple and elegant. It arrived beautifully packaged and it will be something they can treasure in a frame. Highly recommended 

Everyone loved the cake especially the bride and groom 👰‍♀️ 🤵

I saw this and thought it was very appropriate no matter what path you are on. Family, relationships, work, weightloss or just because 😏 

My big thing has always been - take a step back and BREATHE!!

Wishing Billy the happiest of 30th birthdays. Billy, as you step into your 30th year, this year sure to be filled with amazing milestone moments (wedding) and endless happiness—we want to wish you the happiest of birthdays for Tuesday. 

With everyone for dinner we had butter chicken by request and the trimmings. 

Of course a cake had to be made and I created a @funkybatter Red Velvet Chocolate cake with @funkybatter vanilla battercream.  Layers incorporated @kokoblackchocolate milk shavings and of course, a Playstation theme to suit the boy inside. The birthday boy was very happy 😃

Dinner tonight was a total winner—only 6 WW Points and super satisfying! A perfect healthy meal 🍽️ 

Crispy flathead fillets, lightly dusted with flour and seasoning, shallow pan-fried to perfection. Paired with crunchy air-fried chips and a fresh, vibrant salad made from lettuce, cucumber, homegrown tomatoes, chickpeas, and avocado.

The finishing touch? A drizzle of our favorite @fustinisholland balsamic vinaigrette, brought back from Michigan by the kids each year. It’s so good we use it sparingly, but it absolutely makes the meal!
