Who knew being a dating advice columnist would involve getting to eat amazing food? Not me … but it’s definitely turned into a perk of my job. eHarmony are currently putting together a ‘great date guide‘ and they’ve sent me out onto the streets of Brisbane to find some great venues for those who usually […]
MoreYesterday marked the 75th birthday of Brisbane’s iconic Story Bridge and to celebrate, Brisbane City Council closed the bridge for most of the day for what was tipped to be one hell of a street party. Over seven hours, more than 70,000 locals hit the bridge to enjoy a kilometre long smorgasbord of food stalls, bars […]
MoreHello? Is it me you’re looking for? Hilarious, right? Speaking of Lionel… Have you see that film clip, it’s one of the creepiest 80s videos doing the rounds. Check it out here. Anyway, I know, it’s been a while since I let my fingers do the talking and shared some stories from my world but […]

The festival started back in 2003 as the Celebration of Australian Food & Wine Noosa Style featuring famous foodies including Stephanie Alexander, […]
MoreDear Mum, I can’t even begin to count how many emails and cards I’ve started with those two words over the years, probably thousands, but I know you’ve saved each and every one. This Mother’s Day, I just wanted to say thank you. Thank you for the big things and the small things, even the […]
MoreNormally when it comes to Mother’s Day, I’m always organised ahead of the game. Mum’s birthday is in late April so normally I do a double-header at the shops and stock up on goodies for both. But this year, I’ve slipped and I’m currently gift-less. Luckily, there’s 5 shopping days to go so, if like […]
MoreLast week I took my 15-year-old cousin Maddy to see the new teen comedy, The Duff. Surprisingly, it’s not an ode to Hillary (Duff, get it?) but instead tells the tale of humiliation and redemption experienced by high-school senior Bianca who, thanks to her rude, jock of a next-door neighbour (who happens to be super […]
