Didn't know it was your pasta group, Maddy. I joined 2 days ago. No wonder the cover photo is so beautiful. Makes sense now :)

I have that book Chookie, my favourite recipe is (well it's a bit hard to choose) it's a toss up between the rosemary country rolls and Thai chicken salad. The strawberry, Cointreau jam and twice baked cheese soufflés are really good too.

I'm sure you and DS will both enjoy this book.

Chookie - this has been a favourite of mine for a while . . it's a beautiful book! I'm sure both you and your DS will really enjoy it.  I gave my original copy to my DD and bought another for me. . .And Mich is right - it really is hard to point to a particular favourite recipe :D

I've never had a cabin suitcase and thinking of Melbourne for later this year and DH's weekends to NZ to watch the rugby and visit family, we bought a cabin bag. It was on sale at a very reasonable price. Hopefully we will be able to save the $20-$30 of check-in luggage and it will also be useful for the camper trailer. I always pack way too much stuff. As a bonus it came in my favourite colour - red  ;D It still weighs 2.4kgs so packing light will be a priority.

Love the colour Michele, it's obviously smaller than it looks.

It's very small Judy. It does have a very generous front pocket that you could put underwear/flat heeled shoes/magazines.

You can do it. I have only had a carry  on for years. Makes life sooooo easy. No body is looking at you for wearing the same thing for days in a row. Who cares??


Mind you it is possible I may just have a checked bag for Melbourne if I book with QF. Ther may be some shopping I may have to do. Or NOT!
