Orders for next fortnight’s roast are open. And everyone’s favourite Columbian is back! But we only have 5 kilos of it. Be quick.

Sam and I were crazy party animals last night. So crazy that after eating dinner while watching Idol, we decided to watch a late night DVD. That’s right. We started a movie at 9:20pm on a Sunday night. And we left the washing piled up in the sink. I told you – crazy party animals right [...]

Today I’m heading to St Stephens Newtown to help out with an event they’re running in their community garden. I reckon a church like this running a community garden where people can come and grow veges together is really a good idea, because Jesus loves these people.

My all time favourite breakfast is a big bowl of museli with light milk, topped with crushed almonds, sliced strawberries, bananas, fresh dates, honey and a big dollop of greek yoghurt - accompanied by a flat white and the saturday paper.
My all time favourite breakfast is not vegemite on burnt toast, scoffed while racing out the door to [...]
