Happiness is...

a spacious, fully equipped kitchen with a well stocked pantry and free rein to cook or bake whatever i want!!


This is the last week of my placement in Hobart and i really should have blogged more but the placement was pretty full on and weekends were filled with various fun activities and before i knew it...it's nearly the end!!!

For the first 5.5 weeks, i stayed at a place with a smallish kitchen...and last week, i moved to a colleague's house...she's a dietitian...and a mom and wife...and i really love staying here...it makes such a world of difference when the people staying in a house are loving, happy and warm....

the thing which i love most about my colleague's place???

The kitchen!!! It's got everything!!! Gas stove (so much easier than electric ones!), huge fridge, big oven, food processor, breadmaker and herbs and spices and condiments for cooking all sorts of cuisines!! (Even tamarind pulp!!! I m cooking pad thai tomorrow!!!)

Cooked coq au vin two nights ago, a pumpkin slice (similar to zucchini slice) last night and baked a beet greens (leaves of beet root) CAKE just now..waiting for it to cool... Blogger is not letting me upload any pictures...so u just have to imagine a brown cake with specks of green and red... heehee...
