Hello my little Gastronaughts. Welcome to my new blog emanating from The Little Kitchen in the pandemic locked apartment on the beautiful Cairns Esplanade. Here I will post positive comments on all things affecting us in the far north (these may be in short supply - positive things I mean) and some occasional grumbles about stupid comments from politicians and others. Importantly, I shall post and seek comments on all things gastronomical. There will also be links to virtual cooking lessons and invitations to virtual coffee dates, cocktail hours and even the occasional virtual dinner partiy. Stand by for details on how to order a pick up or delivered special meal. If you need Tiramisu there is help at hand.
