In the last week or so….seeing as how I’m his ‘expert’ in these things, Rent Guy has asked me if there are any places that do Food Vouchers for this area….

I told him that I tried finding just such a place last year some time, by going to the local Salvos in Sunshine, who then told me to go to a place called Sashes, which is part of the Salvos as ( Read more... )

For a few years now, I've often thought that, if I were to Win The Lottery, and still wanted to actually continue *Working*, running a Pub of some kind might be a nice idea :-)

Something relatively quiet, where friends can gather over a Drink and a Meal....kinda like Cheers, I guess

TASTY ART

Sculpter Jim Victor works in many kinds of media. but his food sculptures could really whet your appetite. Marvel at vegetable portraits that look like 3-D Archimboldo paintings, turkeys, ducks, tempura, and a bust of Cleopatra carved out of chocolate, life-sized cows and dairy trucks sculpted out of butter, and the ultimate ( Read more... )
