Revellers are gathering in this part of the world as Australia prepares to ring in 2012 ahead of countries trailing behind the International Date Line. After a very Merry Christmas indeed, our New Year's Eve promises to be blissfully low key with a bowl of popcorn, a...

I have been scared of animals and birds for as long as I can remember. But I gave into that fear when we brought home 4 chickens three years ago. I was terrified of holding them and pet them only under supervision. But I loved them fiercely right from day one...
A few weeks ago, Nick and I were kindly invited by the Crowne Plaza Hunter Valley and BMW to an indulgent winter escape as part of their Discover More winter soiree. Starr PR was responsible for organising and co-ordinating our entire trip and they...
Last week we sneaked up to Barrington Tops and spent three adventurous days in a cabin by the river. We explored precarious little paths down to the river, we perched gingerly over moss covered river stones, we slipped and fell in with a splash that...
I am Sneh! I am a Food/Lifestyle Photographer, Stylist and Cookbook Author. I live in the Sydney bushland with my husband, our two boys and a couple of chickens.
