ABC WEDNESDAY
E IS FOR ..........EATING and drinking
A huge part of our 2003 adventure across northern & north western Australia was eating & drinking. Heather, Rob & Ian are all incredible cooks & my then 15 y/o nephew Tim a very willing apprentice. My role....kitchen aid, & Peter's...bar attendant.
We ate the most amazing meals, and truly, there is nothing those 3 can't cook in a cast-iron camp oven.....Turkish bread, friandes, 40-cloves chicken, Moroccan lamb, apple crumble, Old Cork pork, Black Forest cake, bread loaves & rolls!
At Darwin's Mindil markets, there is an eye-popping choice in satays & burgers when you check the selection available.
We ate meals in the most incredible and mundane locations....empty beaches in a tiny patch of shade & car parks with picnic benches.
If you munch your way over to Mrs Nesbitt's, you'll find links to more ABC Wednesday posts.

What a nice blog, looks like you had fun and I was hungry just reading it.
eating is such a huge part of the mediterranean, so i can fully sympathise with your incredible mundane locations, which makes food take on a whole new meaning in such places
Now that's my idea of a good trip! One filled with lots of good eating...
Let me know when the next one is planned with all you cooks on board!
Oh yum. THose are just the sort of people that I'd like to go travelling with!
MMMmmm. Eating is a great 'e'.
You had me at the cast iron cook oven - apple crumble! my favourite! *drool*
My mouth is watering! This both sounds and looks delicious.
My tummy just rumbles. =) It's really great to share food with people. It makes eating much fun!
My E picture is now posted, too! You can check it out HERE if you have the time. Thanks!
Awesome! "E is for Eating!" Brilliant. Great photos and wonderful post. Cheers!
Very clever idea for the letter E.
But now I am hungry.

Nice E! Well done :-)
Now, that's the way to travel; with good cooks!
That's my favorite kind of vacation..Eatting and seeing the sights. Great word for E.
Thank you for your kind thoughts - much appreciated.
caba - I posted the lcations of both the bus stop/sofa and doctor's light in response. On the lantern one.
I once joined a party where eating was through a buffet. Australian walked around the buffet table and put everything on the plate ending up with caramel pudding and Ice on top. I started with cold dishes and returned to the buffet to get fish. When entering the buffet the third time for the warm meat, many looked at me with strange eyes.
Why do some of the people in Australia always make hash out of the eating process.
I think it would have been dangerous for me to go to Australia...
This sounds like a wonderful gastronomical vacation. It looks like great fun!
Thank you for your comments on my Eagle.
Oooh!That black forest cake looks delicious...
OF COURSE! Eating and boy oh boy! This is a feast! Great post.. yummy!
Sounds like quite a feast and a fun time.
All looks good...
I could "murder" all of it...
Maybe I'll start my diet tomorrow...
Yummy, I feel like eating. I did not think of verbs on 'E'.
Geat idea.
Ok..now I am really hungry. I've never heard of "cork pork", but if it's pork, it has to be good. Thank you so much for visiting Rambling Woods..
Hi cabacurl - that food looks good, its making me hungry.
To answer your questions - yes, its a fountain with blue light shining on it; I went to the same high school as Sally (do I know you?); she lives in the street I grew up in and where my parents lived until late last year.
eating is always a good thing to do, esp. when hungry, lol.
Wow, that satay looks great. I love that kind of food.
Yes, EATING!
Why didn't I think of that.
Caitlyn looks so bright and cheerful.

Wow! Dont you just love it when people appreciate your cooking? It is tea time here and I am getting hungry! LOL!
