About

Hi, I’m Janet

I’m thrilled to share my beautiful recipes for home baking, my ideas about travel and my craft projects.

I love to bake at home, here in Auckland, NZ and more than anything… I love to see friends and family enjoying my food. I experiment a lot with ingredients and find the best method to bring you helpful and easy to follow tips and tricks. I create recipes. I also dig out old family recipes passed down the generations in old hand written form.

I also love to try recipes from magazines, newspapers, cookbooks… I have even been known to copy a recipe from a mag at the dentist’s waiting room! Some recipes are new but most are my absolute favourites that I make regularly.

On this web site you will also find ideas about travel and tips about things to do, where to stay and what to eat. See tons of beautiful photos, downlaod maps and see how we did it… this may help you to plan for your next adventure trip. I’ll also take you along on our next journey.

Crafting is a big part of my life now that I have more time at home (when I’m not travelling or baking!). I love to mosaic, bead and crochet. See my projects and pick up free patterns.

I’m super excited to see you here, thanks for visiting!
