About Me

My passion for sourcing, creating and sharing great food has brought me so much enjoyment over the years, and I love hearing a friend or family member telling me they've tried making one of the recipes I've cooked for them or told them about. This blog is my on-line journal so I can record my culinary musings.

Sunday afternoon bliss...

On our way back from Cape Paterson on Sunday we stumbled across a most serene winery with an incredible view and soft green grass perfect for lying on whilst watching the clouds drift by... There was even a tree for climbing to get an even better view of Westernport. We were very lucky to have the place to ourselves for a couple of hours while we drank some reisling and pinot noir. As they don't do food you can bring your own picnic. We brought out the leftovers from Saturday's dinner party: asparagus and smoked salmon sandwiches, devilled eggs, sourdough, chevre and my favourite dips from Queen Vic market - smoked eggplant, coriander and macadamia pesto, and moroccan harissa. The winery is called The Gurdies Winery (http://www.thegurdieswinery.com.au/) and I totally recommend it for a picnic lunch. It was the most relaxing meal I've had in a long time (and it was also the first tree I've climbed in many a year!).
