You know how much I adore a good vegan festival, right? So when Andrew and Tiffany, organisers of the Sydney Vegan Festival, invited me to be a guest speaker at the very first Perth Vegan Festival, I said yes in a heartbeat! I’ll be sharing how my decision to follow a vegan lifestyle was […] Read more…

Pure Glow Cleanse
If you’re down with the Perth health scene you’ve probably already heard that my gorgeous friends Annette and Jacqueline have just launched their juicy new business Pure Glow Cleanse into the world. And when they offered me a one-day juice cleanse to try, how could I say no? They didn’t pay me to write […] Read more…
Perth ‘Spring into Wellness’ Event
Wow, what a beautiful morning we had yesterday and what a gorgeous group of women! The Ausdance studios on King Street was the perfect venue to celebrate the start of a new season and shake off those winter blues.

Perth Vegan: C Restaurant, CBD
How great are Mums? Mine is especially lovely. And funny and kind, and was away on holidays this year for her birthday so I didn’t get to spoil her. I decided an early Mother’s Day treat was in order. I’d heard a rumour that C Restaurant (Perth’s only revolving restaurant) had recently gotten savvy with […] Read more…
Subiaco Farmers Market (and why you need to rediscover yours!)
I’ve always been a big fan of Farmers Markets but did you know that the Subi Farmers Market is a paradise for vegans?? Having recently moved to the area, Dom and I headed down there for the first time last weekend and discovered a haven of health and happiness! Sunshine, live music, gorgeous local produce, […] Read more…
Egyptian Mezze Platter – Hummus and Quinoa Tabbouleh
I was never a fan of Tabbouleh when I was growing up. My Dad always tried to convince me to eat it whenever he bought us kebabs but I was having none of it. Just plain iceberg lettuce for this little duck, thank you very much! And you can keep that strange hummus stuff, too! […] Read more…
Sparkles at the Cruelty-Free Festival WA 2012

V Burger Bar, East Victoria Park
The fact that it was almost 2pm on a Friday and the place was packed should have been the giveaway. As I jostled my way to the counter to peruse the menu and place my order, the wait staff were friendly and attentive. With enthusiasm they called the Chef in to consult on vegan […] Read more…
Vegan MoFo Elote (Mexican Street Corn)
I know what you’re thinking. ‘Good grief! Somebody just buy this woman a flight to Mexico, already!’ And I would like you to know that I am totally open to all forms of bribery, corruption and gifts in any shape or form. No questions asked.

If it’s the weekend, you could transform it into a piping hot Antipasto Pizza. If it’s a weekday, you’re trying to keep it healthy, right? […] Read more…
Vegan MoFo Antipasto Tarts
A friend and I saw Immaturi, il Viaggio at the Italian Film Festival on Tuesday night: Wickedly amusing and filled with food, antics, friends and fun, it reminded me of the Italian Antipasto Tarts I made a little while ago for dinner parties for friends and family. Both times the tarts were the most […] Read more…
Thailicious, Northbridge
I love how Thai restaurants in Australia (or everywhere?) have such kooky names. Any restaurant that can get me giggling before I even enter their premises is a winner in my book. It doesn’t get much more zany than ‘Thailicious’, and the fact that they’re located in Northbridge was enough to get me giggling […] Read more…
