The little wins in life are always a celebration 🌱

I have been a chef 18 years as of today!

Some hard mahi has gone into my career, some long weeks, afew failures, ALOT of ups , few self doubt moments but here I am..
A career that is a male dominated trade , a trade I have grasped and dominated to show woman that we are BOSS not just at home in the kitchen but in a kitchen for the public.

My surroundings have always been hectic, my mind works 37hours a day on how to be creative with the next meal or next business venture but the most important job is being a wife and Muma 🌻

To those who think being a chef is easy... It's not, it's taken me 18years to be peaceful.. kinda haha

To everyone who has sat at my table, thank you 💙

These 3 markets have been our biggest sellers over the December period for the last three years.

So many are all about supporting local small businesses and we definitely are grateful and always happy to show up and support local too..

We are strong on remembering that not everything needs to be brand new or expensive when trying to gift to others, recycling, upcycling, baking, or even a wee cheese board and cuppa shows alot of gratitude to your loved one, enjoy each other and see you at a market soon🌻

Love a good memory!

Geez we worked hard for this piece of s**t building run/owned by greedy people who don’t know the meaning of what it is like to struggle in pandemic times it definitely was a season of being proud, broke, vulnerable, a boss over being a friend, learning.

Love our new life balance now tho it’s dreamy after the hrs of endless mahi.
