I don’t want this to be about diet food, as I believe good, food should be inclusive, so good health, good conscience and great taste! If you want to make some non-skim versions-enjoy…just some of us are no that fortunate. Not everyone's going to agree with my point of view, but that's fine- this is food through my eyes... or stomach? I'm not here to preach, I'm not a dietician or the next Masterchef, but this is my approach to food and I'd love to share.

The 'Good Life' in a residential area
As you know we've sourced as much from local farmers, buthcers and markets as possible. But we're also trying to produce some of our own food.
Yes we live in a residential areas and we both work, so it just goes to show what can be done. This is only on a small scale at the minute, but gradually as we're learning and growing in confidence we'll continue to do more.
At present we're growing out own herbs; this is on a plot scale and has been incorporated into the landscape garden at the front of the house.
He's built an above ground veggie box in our front
and we have chooks in the back yard, 3 at the moment... And yesterday we had our first egg! Now theie only small when they start laying so I was surprised by the size of this one, it's with large free range store bought eggs. So fingers crossed to getting a few more!
