For Christmas, my daughter surprised Peter with a gift of two packs of snap-frozen Tasmanian sea scallops, with creamy coloured flesh and beautiful orange coral still attached.
Courgette or zucchini flowers are treated like gold at my place. I can barely wait for the season, when our plants flower, providing these delicate and exquisite blossoms.

When one of my food heroes calls to let me know they're in town and asks if I'm free for a coffee, I'm there... especially if that person happens to be the lovely Lyndey Milan OAM!  MasterChef's Alvin Quah will be in town for a Fishing Fair MasterChef finalist, Alvin Quah, will be on deck to cook up some of his favourite seafood recipes at a Fishing Fair to be held on Sunday, 17 May at Googong's Beltana Park. 
The festive feasting is officially finished at The Blue House. We've eaten our way through the Christmas ham, puddings, brandy custard and one or two boxes of panettone (!). Light and luscious foods now head up the agenda, along with daily cycling, swimming and post-dinner power walks.

As an artist, photographer and a dreamer at heart, my imagination was captivated and inspired by the timeless grandeur, compelling beauty and irresistible ambience and spirit of this great city.'
