About a year ago, I had a crazy idea. I was walking towards my workplace, feeling elated about the delicious snacks I had packed for my work day. (As an aside, do you often think ahead to what you’re going to eat next? I do it all the time, but maybe that’s just me. Oh Read more
I really really love that I have created an occupation where I get to potter around making creations like this – can you guess what it is? (Answer at end of this post): Anyone who knows me, knows that I am a sweet-tooth kind of gal. My parents love to tell a story about travelling Read more
Howdy! Today I’m wanting to draw your attention to a recipe which is already hidden on the blog, but you may not have noticed it. It’s embedded within another recipe – it’s the Magical Chocolate Sauce which fills the indentations of the Spiced Peanut Thumbprint Cookies. I’m still having some trouble converting blog posts into Read more

I’ve been quiet for a while…sorry…but all in a good cause. Life has been super-busy. Almost two weeks ago I tripped off to Auckland for three intense days of Raw Chef Training with Rene Archner, and it was amazing. Amazing because the food was outstanding. Every meal was sensational. Every nibble, every bite (oh besides Read more
I’ve had requests for more info to be available online about the raw/plant-based food workshops and demos that I’m running. Very very soon…apparently…the www.nibl.co.nz website will go live, and everything you need to know should be there (added November 2013: it’s alive and kicking now! Head on over there for all of the up-to-date Read more
It’s such a fancy word, bespoke. I didn’t know what it meant until recently. I thought it was something related to cycling. But no – it means custom-made and, while it usually refers to clothing (I think?), I’m going to use it in relation to what I’m doing tomorrow. Tomorrow is very exciting for Nibl Read more
