This is a bit of a hit 'n' run post as there's a few things in the works, mainly the inaugural Gluten-Free Expo in Adelaide this weekend. I'm doing two cooking demonstrations and guest speaking so there's a bit to organise, but I'm excited to have this opportunity and I'll be blogging about it next week. Thankfully, the kids are back at school after 2 weeks of holidays - phew! We all needed the … [Read more...]

You may recall that a few weeks ago I posted a recipe for Cake Balls, which was basically a guide to salvaging a baking disaster.
