How do you stay inspired?

Rouge's food boards. And her Facebook.
Pretty much covers it.


I love old cookbooks. My Edmond's gets a good workout, as do old menus from work.

I am missing my Food Channel badly since ditching the Foxtel, but I have recently been given back my mum's entire AWW collection - so I have a few things to tide me over now.

Also, I tend to cook a lot simply made up as I go. I don't meal plan.

I should clarify about my meal planner - it's more just a guide that I use to give me the basic idea, then I combine it with what I have on hand or what's on special. I probably stick to it 5 out of 7 nights. e.g Tues is a busy day here, so Tues is 'easy' night - frozen fish, omelettes, takeaway etc. Wed is grilled meat (so could be steak, chops, sausages, schnitzel...whatever), Fri is homemade pizza or BBQ (my fave night as I love BBQ veg, or is it because DH does the BBQ?!), Sat is seafood (except tonight it's fresh pasta and sauce ). We also have a salad night (in summer), a chicken night and a 'rice' night - risotto, Pilaf, stir fry etc (but I don't always do rice with it).

I also love Taste - I spend hours browsing each week and have so many recipes bookmarked!
