01. Cicchetti class with Pia Gava – everything we made was so delicious but the highlights were the polpette di melanzana (eggplant balls), the battered baccala and the artichoke parmigiano pesto on crostini.
02. And we finished with panna cotta with a strawberry Prosecco jelly – perfect!
03. A themed spin class this week (girl groups vs boy bands) – the class was a killer but everything’s easier with Spice Girls playing.
04. We only manage it a few times a year but dinner with my previous counselling colleagues is always wonderful – I miss seeing them at work.
05. Obviously I didn’t need a new rolling pin but this was too pretty to resist. Will have to make gingerbread now to justify it.
06. Seems to be a lot of food in this post… but Nico’s tuna melt holds a special place in my stomach heart. Extra good when lunching with a top friend.
07. Glorious day in Castlemaine with my brother and sister-in-law, including lunch at Love Shack Brewing (go for the Pale Ale and the crispy potato salad).
