Penne with Broccoli

The Australian Football League (AFL) season starts in earnest this weekend (it actually started last weekend but as there was only one match and it was between 2 Sydney teams that hardly counts). I love AFL, always have, I think … Continue reading
Eggplant – A mini glut
I spent a bit of time this afternoon in a valiant attempt to photograph some eggplants. I don’t have a lot of time to do my photography. I try to slot it in during TV watching time but the average length of … Continue reading
