Interview with The Food Pornographer

Please go to Aussie Bloggers and check out my interview with The Food Pornographer.

tfp was charming, fun and open to interview and I’m sure you will love getting to know her as I did.

If you like, download an mp3 of our interview, which is only slightly edited. :)

Or check out the youtube video below to see how the tfp photographs the food in front of her.

You can also go to her site to see the photos of the food we ate. Yum!

Easter salutations

It is with some trepidation that I wish you all a Happy Easter.

The last time I politely wished a lovely old lady Happy Easter, she snappishly returned:

“Don’t say that to me! Don’t you know what happened on Good Friday? There’s nothing happy in that!”

I was too taken aback to say another word and today - two years later - think twice before wishing anyone happy Easter before Sunday.

Well, except for people I know… like you… :)

I hope you have a great weekend whatever you get up to. It’s a great chance to catch up with family and friends and relax.

Barack Obama v Matt Santos

If you’re looking for something to pod over the weekend and you’re a West Wing fan - Gerry Ryan has done an interview with someone who wrote for the series on the similarities between Matt Santos and Barack Obama.

Eliattie is A Writer And Producer Of West Wing - He Discusses The Final Seasons Of The West Wing.

How it works is right!

Have just discovered this blog.

Absolutely. Classic. Cartoons.

Check it out.

And while I’m recommending favourites… here’s my favourite podcast. The Weekly Ryan.

I discovered Gerry Ryan (yes me - I discovered him - previously nobody knew he existed. Okay obviously I didn’t discover him…) in late 2006 when we went on a driving trip around Ireland. Groover and I actually changed our itinerary - getting up a bit earlier so we could be in the car when his show was on. Disappointed when it was the weekend. Devastated on our last day when he was away sick (in fact it turned out he was in hospital!). Delighted when we discovered his podcast.

We are absolutely addicted.

I’m also getting into Susan Maushart’s podcast Multiple Choice. I loved her piece on those wretched automated answering service thingys corporations are so fond of at the moment. You might know Susan’s columns in the Weekend Australian.

A rip-snorter

I’ve joined Lightening’s Smiley Saturday this week because I have to share with you this hilarious piece of audio…

Hearing someone totally lose it on radio gets me every time.
