I’m having one of those rare moments where I can’t think of much to say. I’ve got my Pomegranate & Pear Kefir Spritzer to sip on in this hot weather and a puppy at my feet soaking up some sunshine through our bay windows. I can already tell it’s going to be a lazy day and I couldn’t be happier 🙂 …

Woohoo the heatwave is over in Melbourne! That was… not fun. I could elaborate and generally have a big whinge, but instead I’m just enjoying this much more agreeable 23 degree day and feeling thankful for all the cooling and hydrating summer foods available here lately. Melons, pineapple, grapes, cucumbers, lettuce, celery, tomatoes and carrots – you’re all heatwave smoothie …

I do however use recipes for a gel egg as another way to include a range of wholefood ingredients in my diet; each with their own nutritional benefits. These different substitutes …
