dusty AE

about me

I live in Adelaide, midway between the city and the beach and on the banks of the River Torrens. Adelaide is a small capital city where one can get from one side of the city to the other in 30-40 minutes (depending on traffic).
I am retired, have 2 children Vanessa and Darryl and 5 grandchildren..Ella-Mae 15 3/4, Mitchell 4 3/4, Kaelem 3 1/2, Daniel 17 months and Ashlyn 15 months. Have been married to Malcolm for 43 years. For fun - usually friends over for a barbie or even drinks...and relax! Other than that I do crosswords and Logic Problems...and read a lot - well I used to until babysitting came along.
I don't have a favourite book (my husband says I've got too many to be able to select one). I just love collecting recipes, and since finding zaar I have a LOT more. In fact I have had to divide them all up into separate binders.
My passions are my grandchildren, animals AND of course cooking.
peeves? don't have any.

Favorite Foods:

Italian, Viet-Thai, Greek, French. Morrocan - well lets face it - anything.
The recipes I am usually asked to make are pavlovas and a cherry hazelnut tart.
Enzo's...a well known Italian Restaurant in our local area. His gnocchi is to die for.
Also Sunflower - a viet-thai restaurant. They serve their spring rolls the authentic way, I could just eat a whole plate of them. Their quail is also the best!
