There have been several disparate themes mulling around vying for attention as my focus for 2013. I’ve been thinking about packaging, community, and how sharing food is so central, and I’ve been thinking about the conversation that is surfacing in permaculture circles lately about the misconception that permaculture is about self-sufficiency
Just because they look like party food doesn’t mean they can’t be really healthy, low fat, midweek dinner food. And I love the social aspect of all just sitting round the table sharing one platter, rather than individual plates. Everyone has their own favourites. Conversation flows. It’s nice.

Last broad bean recipe for the season I think.
I’ve developed a fetish for beetroot dip open sandwiches for lunch.
Pumpkin season. Infinite number of pumpkin recipes required. This one has used up several of our pumpkins, and will use up several more before the season ends.
It is Halloween in Australia, and peak of the pumpkin season. Roasted pumpkin seeds are a hugely healthy and totally addictive snack. And they are so easy.
