    Finding Peace Away from the City at Cordeaux Dam

    June 24, 2020 /

    I’ve lived in Sydney my whole life, and I had no idea we had so many dams surrounding our amazing city, like the historic Cordeux Dam. Located around an hour and a half south of Sydney, somewhere in the middle of Campbeltown and Wollongong is one of Sydney’s most historical locations called Cordeaux Dam. It’s heritage listed and provides water to the Macarthur and Illawarra regions south. Construction of the dam began in 1918 and was completed in 1926 at a cost of 945K pounds, with walls consisting of large sandstone blocks, which were quarried onsite and cemented together and hold approx. 93,640 ML of water in the reservoir. It’s…

St Pat cupcakes… the clover looks more like club St Pat cupcakes… the clover looks more like clubs from playing cards… but they still tasted great nonetheless.

I did shortcut these cupcakes with a packet recipe and ready made icing, as I was in a tad of a hurry to get these done before heading off to catch up with family. 

Either way - delicious they were.

I hope you all had a fab weekend 🍀

It’s been a while since I shared a beauty post. It’s been a while since I shared a beauty post. 

So, I thought I would share with you, why skincare is so important, and what skincare products I am loving right now.

Summer is nearly over in Australia, and it’s been a weird season. From a week of over 30 temps, to a week of under 25 temps, before bouncing back to high 30s, it’s been challenging to both physically and mentally balance between the irrational change.

Phew! It was really hot yesterday. But that didn’t stop us exploring the old heritage village at Fairfield Museum.

Full of historical memorabilia from the area, including a fully stocked old grocery store.

Delicious 2 ingredient cinnamon pretzels…. Recip Delicious 2 ingredient cinnamon pretzels…. Recipe from @thebigmansworld

Ingredients:
1 & 1/3 cups of gluten free flour
3/4 cups of Greek yoghurt
Cinnamon & sugar mixture. 
Some melted butter

Tip: add a tablespoon of baking soda to help make them fluffier as gluten free flour can be really dense once baked. 

Method:
Mix the flour and yoghurt together, and make a nice ball of dough.
Original recipe is cut into 8 pieces, but next time I’ll be cutting into either 4 or 6 to make them bigger. Your call.
Roll into smaller balls and then roll those balls into long desired sausage lengths, depending how thin or big you want your pretzels. 
I made mine a little too thin. Next time I’ll make them thicker and shorter. 
Just keep in mind you want to have them long enough to twist into pretzel shapes.
Coat with some melted butter or oil.
Bake in the oven at 180 degrees for at least 20 minutes. Let them sit for 10 minutes before coating with a bit of the melted butter again and dipping into a sugar and cinnamon mixture. 
Enjoy fresh and warm, or wait to cool and eat.
