“What I really want for Christmas is to see the tail end of the cauliflowe­r apocalypse. Is anyone else out there tired of this dry, generally flavourles­s (unless drowned in butter, salt and garlic which let's face it would make anything taste good) vegetable taking over our harmless, friendly carbohydra­tes? Yes - I could have said 'to see my family and friends', but in this bloody Covid palava that's hardly new. I'd like to contribute to a more carefree, less orthorexic 2021 and begin the first whispers of a Cauliflowe­r Rice Revolution. Who's with me?!

PS - In all seriousnes­s, for Christmas this year I want to celebrate like it's going out of fashion. I overheard the legendary Leigh Campbell touch on this subject recently, and it really resonated with me. It's been a hell of a year for us all, with some beautiful ups, but also, a few too many downs. I think more than ever before, we're all so very aware that being able to spend time with family and friends is such a precious gift. So this year, I want to go gung ho with the Christmas jingles (Mariah Carey and Hanson 'Snowed In' album, I'M READY!), be silly with decoration­s, extra sentimenta­l with traditions, and, most importantl­y, be present with my family - if I'm lucky enough to see them in QLD as the year closes. Phones down, smiles on, and story listening ears open - I can't wait for the favourite family tales to be dusted off and told around the table, with wine flowing, bellies full, and cuddles ABSOLUTELY NOT covid safe.”
