The menu changes, regularly, constantly surprising you with it wonderful choices. Anything you order is beautifully presented and prepared with loving care.

Today for lunch I ordered the semi-dried tomato and corn fritters. The first photo tells the story of how wonderful it looked and the second photo will tell you how good it tasted!

The coffee here is also so delicious, it's hard not to order a second., or perhaps you prefer a tea, of which there is a good variety to choose from. If you have a sweet tooth, then there are an assortment of cakes etc to choose from. Today for dessert I ordered the lemon and poppy seed cake. You will have to take my word for it that it was delicious, I got so carried away when it came that I ate it before I took a photo....sorry. It really was that good.

So do yourself and your partner/friends a favor and book yourself into Caffe Strada for breakfast or lunch, did I mention their breakfasts are just devine, and they only use the very best of products and again that wonderful Gluten Free bread.

By the way if you like to dine outside they have a lovely secluded rear courtyard, or tables on the footpath for people watching as well as tables and booths inside.

Great Storm to Watch - Over Tocumwal N.S.W. Australia - Mini Tornado

A mini Tornado struck Strathmerton on the weekend of October 31/10/15 destroying a couple of houses. Luckily no one was hurt. Just a bit further along the Murray River at Tocumwal the Tornado ended. We happened to be home and live near the edge of town, close to the river. We saw the sky turn pink, grey and green. Ominous. Can't remember a stormy grey sky turning pink or especially green before. Made the hair stand up on the back of my neck. Then we heard this roar. Bernie looked at me as we stood on our back verandah watching the clouds flying about and said "What's that noise?" I replied, "Wind. Lots of it. I think we should go inside now." As I said this we saw the sky along the river turn green and pink and the trees begin to whip wildly. We retreated inside for a bit and as the roar died away we ventured back out to the front verandah as torrential rain began to fall. And boy did it rain!!! The early afternoon turned dark as the clouds above turned ...

Great Reading - Crime, Conspiracy, Action - "Mortal Insight" by E.B. James

Mortal Insight A brilliant novel. Draws you in, then keeps you in suspense. It brings you conspiracy, crime, action and asks the question: When your life is at stake, are some truths worth bringing out into the open? Detective Sergeant Steve Keller has begun to see things. He desperately hopes the visions mean something and not that he's going crazy. But the visions don't go away, and when they start meaning something more, Steve finds himself caught in an investigation way bigger than he ever imagined. As the pieces begin to fit together, something dangerous emerges. He can't hide what he knows, but to expose it doesn't just stir up controversy, it provokes someone who lurks in the shadows; someone who will kill to keep this information quiet. Great reading, didn't want to put it down when I first began to read it. When I picked it up the second time, well, I couldn't put it down until I finished it at 2.00am in the morning!!! Worth the lack o...

Recipe-Healthy Eating,Healthy Heart,Diabetic Friendly, Vegetarian, Great Tasting simple food.

Roast Pumpkin & Mushroom Risotto. Decided I wanted a risotto for dinner that tasted great and was good for me. Mmmmmm, so that means, oil is out, dairy is out, gluten is out, fat is out, meat is out. Geez, what's left? Let's check out what's in the refrigerator.......Pumpkin, celery, red capsicum, Portobello mushrooms, red onion, garlic, vegetable stock, white wine, etc mmmmm. Ok, in the pantry I've got risotto rice etc. So, I made up this recipe below. Hope you like it as much as I do. Sorry about the photo. I started eating before I remembered to take a photo, it smelled so good. I had already mixed in the baby spinach and rocket although you can't see them in the photo, I think they went to the bottom! Anyway, I enjoyed it, so even though the photo isn't as pretty as it could be, the proof is in the eating. Give it a go. Ingredients: 450g pumpkin - cut into cubes and roasted with a sprinkle of water and then Mexican seasoning. Set aside...
