    Revealed: Master the 'Delicious' Chicken Secret Jamie Oliver Swears by on MasterChef! (Try Not to Drool)

    Guess one could also get some flavour into a full roasted chicken by doing something similar to stuffing a turkey or duck at Christmas time - by wrapping foil over the breast for the major part of cooking a whole chicken a good deal of juiciness will be retained then just remove the foil for the...

    Shocking details from a Coles grocery haul ignite a massive controversy – Are your shopping habits part of it?

    The rump, cashews & almonds would have been the most expensive items on that list. And 3 litres of milk if bought in 3 separate litre cartons would cost a bit more than one 3 litre bottle, I presume. Look at prices before you even pick up the item to put it into your trolley - you silly complainer.

    One pastry's hefty price tag leaves bitter taste in one mum's mouth

    Look before you leap!! Always check out a menu on line, then again at the restaurant/coffee shop before buying and blaming the seller. If they can get away with a ridiculous price (& make you the idiot in the bargain) then you only have yourself to blame.

    I have read that eggs should always be cooked to avoid the possibility of developing severe reaction and illness from salmonella.

    Woolworths expands COOK range with six new slow-cooked dishes for busy Aussies

    These meals are not in single serve packs, so be careful. The whole packs cost more, but if one person is happy to eat the same meal for a few days running it works out reasonable; you still have to cook the whole pack at once though. Aldi has just a few small packs of food at reasonable cost...

    Australia Post receives fine after delivery driver’s ‘lapse in judgment’

    I don’t believe what you are saying, Lisa, is a valid excuse for what the delivery driver did. HE WAS DEFINITELY IN THE WRONG. God forbid you may need a spot like that in your future. You will be so angry that an able-bodied person has made you struggle to get to where you want to go without...

    You Won't Believe How 'Eco-Friendly' Laundry Habits Are Losing to This One Human Emotion!

    Do we really need ‘studies’ to know so many simple hacks? The researchers and people that put out their studies are probably not doing this for nothing - there’s definitely compensation involved.

    Police arrest woman in her 60s after discovering lifeless body in family home

    Suzanne, the article does not state anything about a ‘welfare check’. It may have just been coincidence that the son was out at the time of the alleged incident and arrived back home to find his father dead. There may never have been any indication of trouble and his mother may have just snapped...

    Guess all those people from Asian & some other countries are full of all the attributes spicy food is said to give us.

    Woman recounts 'intimidating' car park experience in local Woolworths

    Not necessarily paranoid. Back in the 50s it was a very different world when men did not assault women just for the fun of it. Women may have taken it as a compliment then but not now with assaults and, worse still, the murder of women because a man cannot perhaps have his way with her, being an...

    Aussie mum’s unbelievable Costco haul sparks conversations on social media

    Guess the person in this article keeps her car outside on the driveway to store the bulk buys in her garageband justify the cheaper (?) Costco prices + petrol + yearly membership. So she will be needing a new car sometime soon - think deterioration, excess mileage being run up, cost of fuel, new...

    Eggs-traordinary controversy: Social media chef scrambles traditional cooking with her recipe

    The way we love our scrambled eggs at home - some melted butter to fry up an amount of very finely diced onion, some green chilli also finely diced and fried, then add the VERY well beaten eggs with a little milk and salt and pepper to taste. I do not like to see amounts of egg white separated...

    Eggs-traordinary controversy: Social media chef scrambles traditional cooking with her recipe

    Me too - No runny egg yolks or semi transparent yolks for me either. If I eat scrambled eggs out I ask for well-done and fried eggs have to be ‘dead’. And I actually ask for them in those words.
