So I heard this week that Melbournians just love to talk about the weather. And i realised that I do that so often on this blog that it’s a little embarrassing. Maybe it’s because it’s so damn unstable in this corner of the world. It’s been summer weather all week with balmy evenings and now it’s miserable, cold, windy and raining. And the weather clearly has an effect on what I feel like eating so it’s totally okay that I’ve just spent a paragraph talking about it…
Happy Sunday folks! I hope you’ve all had a lovely weekend and are rearing to go for the week ahead… or at least not dreading it that’s a good start. I’ve got some lovely autumn themed recipes for you in this weeks post and some to celebrate the last of the summer veg.
Happy long weekend folks! I hope it’s been full of fabulous food and good times. Unfortunately mine has been full of watching Mad Men from bed because I’ve had the flu…. but I think I’m coming right today so I’ll have to make up for lost time on the fabulous food front;)
I’m writing this while drinking a hot toddy because the weather has been monumentally miserable today. But it looks like it’s about to come right just in time for me to venture out for the evening and pretend to have an exciting social life… but first it’s meal plan time.
Happy Sunday folks! It’s been another busy week over at the Healthy Hunter HQ, and by that I basically just mean my kitchen cos this is a one woman show kinda thing. Clearly. It’s also been a delicious week with one of my favourite new recipes I’ve posted in while getting in the mix in this weeks meal plans.
I’ve been thinking a lot this week about how I eat. My relationship with food has changed so much over the years, due to growing knowledge of food, better cooking ability, and a far greater knowledge of my own mind and body.
I’m usually super organised with my posts but this week not so much. I’m actually finishing writing this from bed on a Sunday morning. I really should have pushed ‘publish’ an hour ago but things don’t always work out perfectly!
So February is quickly coming to an end and that means no more summer soon and no thank you I’m not ready for Autumn quite yet! Yes, I realise March will probably be even warmer than what we’ve had so far but there’s still so many summer things I’d planned to do like more picnics and beach days and I feel like February has been work, work, work and not enough activities.
We’re speeding through February at a frankly alarming rate and I really don’t want summer to come to an end. I love the warm weather and long nights with beautiful light that come with Summer and I’m definitely not anywhere near ready for that to end. So this week I’m going to keep celebrating the warmth with summer appropriate food.
This week we’ve got some old favourites mixed in with new recipes that are on high rotation in my house! The warm weather has me loving salad bowls, easy pastas and one pan meals that mean minimal time spent washing up.
