Do you know the muffin man? I do. Turns out he’s about four-ft tall, blonde, extremely cheeky and only six-years old. Inspired by our recent bushtucker adventures in Jervis Bay, Raffles asked me if we could hit the kitchen for a little experimenting with some of the native flavours we’d learned about and tasted in Booderee National Park. Three-year […] Read more…
I bought my first beaten up jalopy before I’d learned to drive – such is my love of hitting the road. By the time I had my P plates I knew my way around its V6 engine so well that I could practically repair it myself. Mind you cars were pretty simple when I was […] Read more…
I was raised in a meat and two veg kind of household. A household where we didn’t eat at a table let alone together. Dad usually ate on the couch watching TV in his undies, mum in the kitchen, my brother in his room and me in mine – not the stuff of Bradyesque familial […] Read more…
Believe it or not the residents of Casa Eats World are not always eating… or travelling. But that doesn’t mean that our offspring aren’t thinking about exploring and tasting other lands pretty much every waking moment. In fact, my nomadic spawn are a little too eager to hit the road and find it difficult to comprehend the logistical […] Read more…
Raffles and Sugarpuff love driving games, especially spotting red cars, but never so much as the one they’ve spotted parked outside our apartment this week… a shiny red Ford Territory Titanium that’s ours for the next six weeks as part of the Voices of 2014 Paint the Town Ford Challenge. Sugarpuff christens her “Lulu” but […] Read more…
*sponsored post Raffles and Sugarpuff have been getting their nag on quite a bit lately because it’s been six whole weeks since they’ve been on a holiday. While I’m thrilled that my tiny travel bugs love visiting new destinations and time on the road, as I’ve mentioned before, they don’t quite understand the logistical nightmare […] Read more…
Toilet training was never going to be one of the highlights of parenting but, having written about and researched the topic at length, as well as having toilet trained one whole child before, I figured the second time around would be a breeze. A slightly pungent breeze, but a breeze nonetheless. Foolishly, I forgot to […] Read more…
Holidays mean time for the family to relax and share new experiences, right? That is unless you’re travelling with toddlers who, if you aren’t prepared, are likely to make the whole experience a little like herding cats. Travelling with toddlers comes with its challenges but after many, many attempts we’ve finally gotten it down to […] Read more…
To those who ask me (and I am asked, with astounding frequency) what the point of travelling and exposing my children to different cultures and people at such a young age is? Let me tell you a little story. The EatsWorlds and a giant plastic pineapple named Johnny (don’t ask) are visiting the National Capital, […] Read more…
I’m going to let you all in on a little secret. I am afraid of flying! Well I’m not so much afraid of flying as I am of crashing, but let’s not split hairs. Either way it proves a little awkward given I make my living out of travel and spend quite a bit time […] Read more…
“Mama, what’s a bucket list?” asked Raffles after hearing someone drop the ubiquitous phrase in conversation. Which is how I found myself introducing Raffles to the concept of a “Bucket List” without sharing its more morbid connotations (something I’m not even remotely equipped to explain away to a four-year old). To save myself from THAT […] Read more…
