More challenges covered this week.
SINGLES: Firstly, Brett Monten shares that he is now single and having a tough time restructuring his cooking and grocery habits. You can see his fridge pictured.
So we chat with Susan Devine from cooking-for-one website, Single Fare, for some tips and ideas.
COUPLES: Next, Steve Davis shares his desire to give his wife a gift of a holiday instead of just ‘stuff’, so Chloe Reschke-Maguire from consumer review site, Yelp, plans some interesting, quirky outings in and around Adelaide to meet the challenge.
Wine is from Bremerton, a tasty mongrel named Tamblyn with four grape varieties bound together in savoury harmony.
A great argument during Adelaide Visa Council centred around a picture of Adelaide – has it been doctored or not? – featured in a Diffords Guide article on cocktails in Adelaide. See it below – it links to the article in question. Please leave your thoughts below or on Facebook/Twitter.
And in Adelaide’s Yesterdays we encounter Adelaidia, an new history site, and finish by listening to Rudderford, a local band that has almost been around long enough to be registered by the National Trust!!
