A Little Love
Brr. I. Am. So. Chilled!
I just got back from running errands, and while I may have been inside most of the time, that wind chills you right to the bone the second you step into it! That, and, one errand involved Price Chopper…and it is always freezing in there. Makes sense, I guess.
You would think, however, that with my heart-warming [pun intended] breakfast, I would have stayed warm and fuzzy regardless!
Yeah, I made myself a Valentine’s Day breakfast a week early. What of it?
Looking somewhat like a bicycle pump, the Handpresso Wild Domepod makes a shot of espresso straight into your cup whether you’re travelling or camping. At first this sounds like a great convenient idea,
but how good will th coffee be and at what cost?
To operate, first you need to manually pump the gadget until it reaches the green zone Continue Reading »
Over the next 12 month we will be looking at the different food options for full time and part time students on a University campus. This will be a good insight into the healthy and not-so healthy choices available to our youth and the staff.
Well I thought it about time we looked at the home coffee machines again, as we all tend to need or like a good coffee in the morning or just to have with a nice biscuite or cake the market for a simple easy to use and consistant machine is filled with many options.
We decided to look at the easy to use machines and the stand out is the Nespresso, this little machine came with a sepperate milk frother and heater but you could have simply used the centrifical self frothing jug option.
A day and a half cruising up the Murray river on our Expressions houseboat we landed at Swan Reach, once past the ferry we moored below the pub on the river bank, there is ample parking for about 3 large houseboats and additional parking on either side of the ferry on both banks of the river. If you have kids it’s worth stopping on the other side and taking a free trip across the ferry.
The pub has a friendly atmosphere quite laid back and feels like you are a local. Continue Reading »
This is one of my favourite starters from the Master Chef Australia first series. I would reccomend this after a nice leek and potatoe soup accompinaied with crusty bread and a good wine.
Well it appears that Gordon Ramsay has attempted to apologise to Tracy Grimshaw on last Saturday (6/06/2009) but she refused to accept his calls, he apparently also made attempts on Sunday (7/06/2009) as well and was refused. It strikes me as odd that if Tracy Grimshaw was in fact so upset that she and the producers of ACA dedicated so many resources and airtime to this story that she would have wanted to speak with Gordon Ramsay if he was wishing to make amends.
This makes our earlier story stronger that for some weird ratings mania Channel Nine and the ACA team especially attacked one of the networks top rating shows personality with what is now looking like a mostly incorrect statement that Gordon Ramsay slandered Tracy Grimshaw by calling her a “Lesbian” in front of a crowd of the faithful at the Melbourne Food Festival. It has been proven by multiple witnesses and other media that this is not the case, Continue Reading »
Well what a ratings grab this has been, but before I get onto that let me bring you up to speed if you happened to miss or as many not pay a great deal of attention to this media beat up.
Apparently at the Melbourne Food Festival (Melbourne Australia) during one of the chef presentations Gordon Ramsay has been accused of apparently calling Tracy Grimshaw (from Channel Nine’s A Current Affair program) a “lesbian” as the excerpt from the AAP article below shows. Why not have a read and then I will continue?
