Weekly Eating Plan: 12 Oct 2015

For me, the love of food is not just about the flavours - it is so much more.  I love the way that it brings people together! This week I have been lucky enough to spend time with my two lovely foodie groups.  A beautiful spring meal with my cuisine girlfriends and a trip to New Plymouth to spend time with our nearest and dearest for a BBQ on the farm.  I hope that you too have wonderful plans to share great food with your loved ones. Bon Appetit.xx
