Snickerdoodles. What are snickerdoodles? That is exactly the question I had been asking for years. I had come across lots of pictures and recipes for these mysterious cookies on various American websites but had never actually ever tried or seen one in real life. What kind of name is snickerdoodle anyway?
I emailed my American friends to ask what on earth is so great about snickerdoodles. Cinnamon and sugar is the answer! Everything in America tastes and smells like cinnamon – there is cinnamon flavoured gum even! I can’t get enough of cinnamon flavoured things.
I’ve typically bought Yakitori chicken kebabs as a quick lunch when I’m out shopping from Japanese food court outlets. Yakitori are Japanese style chicken kebabs. My daughter and I whipped up these kebabs for a simple Friday night dinner. They are so easy to eat they would also be ideal for barbeques and parties. 
With Australia day coming up I got to thinking about food I could make for my mates. Since i’m originally from New Zealand, I thought I’d put a bit of a Kiwi spin on things and make Kumara chips to pair with a good old spicy Aussie burger.
It’s that time of year again when kids go back to school to learn new things and play with friends. Parents, on the other hand, get to put their creative hats on to come up with food for the lunch box that their little students will eat and be nourished by. Well don’t worry because we have some easy ideas that you can use this year that your kids will love and won’t break the bank.
