Recommendation

Hi there,

We just had some work done in our bathroom, and we were so impressed by both the process and the end result, that I feel like I'd be doing them a disservice if I didn't recommend them.

They went above and beyond to comply with our requests, and were so easy to deal with. And very tidy, too. At the end of each day the area was spotless.

Cut to the chase: Latina Homes and Building Services. Preston.

Big ups from us.

Cheers, Damien.

Dog

I've noticed several of these signs on the new black bridge on the Merri Creek near the soccer field. It warns of a dangerous dog that has attacked people in the area recently. I chatted to someone passing by the sign and they said they'd been confronted by the dog about a month ago. I've also sighted it but not been approached by it. 

I am not sure how old the sign is, or if the problem has been resolved, but thought it was worth sharing with the community...

​* Palestinian Cooking Workshop: Autumn Equinox *

​

 This installment of my Palestinian Cooking Workshop series is inspired by the Autumn Equinox and this lovely time of year when leaves change colour, days start get slightly shorter and a bit cooler. As usual I will draw inspiration from mama & teita (my mother & grandmother), who taught me everything I know about cooking, and passed down a wealth of nurturing recipes!

This two-hour workshop will take you on a sensory journey into Palestinian cuisine and look specifically at foods and herbs that support us during the transitions of autumn, as we move away from the warmer months of summer into the cooler months of winter.

During the workshop we will focus on:

– Traditional herbal infusions & remedies, from selected herbs and spices used in Palestine and the Levant
– Cook a delicious vegan meal & discuss nutritional benefits of seasonal produce*

Participants will go home with:

​- ​

 Recipes of the meal shared on the day

​- ​

 A deeper understanding & curiosity for delicious foods from Palestine & traditional herbal medicine

​- ​

 A jar of their personally crafted herbal infusion (optional for $8 each during the workshop, cash only)

This workshop is limited to 12 spaces. So, book early.

Cost: $65, to book click here. 
When: 2:30pm – 4:30pm, Sunday 26th March 2017
Where: CERES Community Kitchen, cnr Roberts & Stewart St Brunswick East VIC 3057
