First of all my apologies for not sending the results of challenge nr. 7 through earlier but due to busy schedules it came a little later then promised! But it’s here now! The voting of the jury was not entirely unanimous but the majority of us thought this image of Liren from Kitchen Confidante hit [...]

UPDATE! Due to the slightly more complicated challenge this month the deadline is extended for one whole month. Get your entries in before end of May now! And remember; it’s not all about having the same props. Mood and atmosphere is more important. I don’t think anyone would have such a lovely rack to place [...]

I’m sure it will come as no surprise that I’m a huge Donna Hay fan. I’ve been an admirer of her books and her magazine for longer then I can remember. In fact, now that I think about it, I’m starting to wonder when was the first time I heard about Donna? If you look [...]

While I think some of the last couple of challenges where… well quite challenging… I think I may have picked a very easy one this time..:) So I would almost say that there is no reason not to participate this month! For the new Donna Hay styling and photography challenge, number 7 already, I picked [...]

That was a bit more tricky this challenge then you would think based on the photo right? Lol… This months challenge has been a pretty good one and while the recipe itself was simple enough the execution turned out to be a little more challenging then anticipated.

Let’s just do another easy one, I thought to myself when going through one of Donna Hay’s cookbooks. It should be a simple recipe but enough of a challenge in getting it right. Well… if only I had thought about that a little better.. I failed, I failed miserably in recreating the original that you [...]

“O that’s gonna be an easy one.” I thought when going through the recipe for the creme brulee in Donna Hay’s book Modern Classics. Cream and eggs, what can go wrong right? Wrong! Ofcourse we have a Dutch saying that goes something like ‘Hoogmoed komt voor de val” and it precisely point out what I [...]

Are you all excitedly waiting for the new challenge to see if it is any better then the last one?? Well I can assure you it IS better then the last one, although it doesn’t take a lot to make it better. I thought about which recipe to pick a lot before choosing. It is [...]

If I say the results for the third ‘episode’ of the Donna Hay challenge are a bit disappointing then that has nothing to do with the quality of the entries, but more with the quality of the recipe and the quantity of the entries… A smashing total of 1 entry! Whoohoo!! Can you guess who [...]

Sometimes, just every so often, you try out a recipe and it is just plain wrong… I had never before have that happen with a Donna Hay recipe, so I guess kudos to their team for testing most of their recipes. And I say ‘most’ because the recipe I picked for this months Donna Hay [...]
