What a week, what a challenge and totally pure 100 mile trial of nothing further, and lots nearer except for a cheeky glass of wine and a splash of Aussie olive oil. It was great, eye opening and awesome and shared in purity with some wonderful ladies, oh and Rod and less purity with some…
Month: April 2013
Saturday- Cycle for your supper! (the chicken crossed the road)Day 6
Well the day started with a meeting, and then another meeting (all food and community garden related) and tempted by great fair trade coffee and cakes at the amazing Mulch Pit and Frilies I resisted untiI I got home to make this salad, it turned out be very delicious and made up on the spot- Cucumbers, pineapple, lime…
Fruity Fishy Friday (day 5 food challenge)
So Friday was pretty action packed (not cooking and photographing food action). I went out plant collecting on a native re-veg project I am working on in the morning and then had a radio interview about our 100 mile trial in the afternoon. I had not really prepared any food. I had a smoothie for…
Day 4 Food Challenge- Lunch
So, Thursday, working from home again made it easier. I do eat fruit and muesli and toast, but not everyday, I often struggle to find something I fancy for brekkie anyway, so with out those bits and pieces I was not more complacent than usual. I made a tasty juice for Jon (who is painting) and…
Day 4 Fishy dinner banana parcels

SO I was craving a tea or even a coffee or herbe matte, basically something with caffeine. Amazing…
Day 2 food challenge
Well, last night I ended up making a roasted pumpkin, egg, sweet leaf, chilli and garlic chive basil dish with snake beans seasoned with the Nightcliff sea salt- a savoir- I love salty, how could we live without it, especially with all this sweat!. It was pretty good, but I have to admit I already…
Day one food challenge
Well luckily today was a holiday, so time for food for thought, or thought for food. I started the day by laying out the goodies for the week to feed myself and Jon. There is quite a lot of food there, maybe not too many fillers. Along the way we will swap produce with friends and also…
Food Care Share- Coconuts the key to survival
So in view of our up and coming local food challenge week, (only eat food produced within 100 miles for the week- no exceptions!) a food care share was planned on Easter Sunday, just before our week of as much local food as possible. Muni and I started the day at the Rapid Creek markets…
