Hi everyone…I’m going to keep this short and sweet. First off, I need to apologise for not blogging in the past few weeks. Late in March I received some terrible news that required me to attend and deal with a personal emergency. It’s taken me a little while to readjust but everything

It’s that time of the year again!  Summer time.  Today was the first day I actually felt the heat and could say “Boy…it’s hot!”.  And for this Photo Friday I would like to celebrate the warmer weather with some cute, miniature ice cream cones.  I’m also very excited because I recently got hold of an ice cream

I woke up this morning to find my blog stats had gone haywire!  Upon further investigation I find that Souvlaki For The Soul has been nominated for best Food Blog in the category of Photography in the Well Fed Network’s Food Blog awards.  Well I’m gob smacked!  Thank you to those who nominated me…it’s a real honour to be recognised by my blogging peers.  And I’d like to wish my [...]

No matter where you are, who you’re with and what weather you’re experiencing, I just wanted to wish everyone the best for this coming festive season.  I hope Santa brings what you asked for!  Also, I just wanted to say a very big THANK YOU to everyone who drops by here. ( I’ll probably manage one more post before the New Year).  Have fun folks, play safe and keep cooking….

Let me tell you about one of the most luxurious experiences I had the other week.  I was invited to spend a few nights at the Grand Hotel located in my birth city of Melbourne.  And what two glorious days I had.  It was the perfect getaway after my recent incidents and I was looking forward to escaping and indulging.  The property itself is heritage listed and it employs a [...]

Recovery Food

This is a mish mash of a post.  A few different things to discuss. While a new man was being elevated to the heights of power on Tuesday, I was being elevated in a dentist’s chair seeking treatment for a cracked tooth!  As it so happens I bit into a Greek sugared almond, “koufeta” as we call them and managed to some how crack one of my teeth dead centre [...]

This is going to be a “mish mash” of a post.  I have a few people to thank and answer a meme (sort of!).  So, sit back, relax and have a “cuppa” with me.  Speaking of, I find I’m drinking way too much coffee these days.  I really can’t help it.  I never start my day without a few of these.  There’s something magical about the aroma as I wait [...]

I’m still here!

by Peter G July 2, 2008 Personal

Hello!  Is there anyone there?  You’re probably asking the same thing of me!  Its been an interesting few weeks.  Where do I begin? Ok.  I was ill for about a week after having a “questionable” satay in a South East Asian country.  I swear I had no idea the tiles on my bathroom floor were that clean.  During my recovery I decided to take a few days off from writing [...]

It’s been a good week..lots of bread experiments as you know. As you may have gathered by now, I like to indulge in a bit of food photography. Its a recent discovery of mine but apart from food I also enjoy taking snapshots of other things as well. So, without boring you I’d like to reflect on a few things that I got up to in the last week through [...]
