I grew up on a farm in New Zealand. I've been cooking since I were 4yrs old. I have been Living in Australia for 28yrs Now on 65 acrs. I've race horses,2 dogs and a number of sheep on the property. Have 4 daughters and 8 Grand children. All Love to cook. So It is my joy to pass on to them good food recipies. Old often is new again with some mod.,twist's I love trying out new recipes. You dont just get meat and 3 veg. at my table. Will play with flavours to get a great taste and texture. Hunting down recipe's that are hard to get and then putting today's touch to them if need be. Every time I'm asked for a recipe by a Chef. To date 16 times. If I have had any tragedies I can't remember them. I must have had some while I was just a kid. Then again some recipes have been salvaged because they were wrong to start with. My Mum and Gran taught me well. Good old Gran And Mum. We need more of you.
