๐ฅฃ A little bit of home cooking on the roadโฆ โค๏ธ
Two nights ago we stayed in the lovely little town of Port Fairy. After a very cold and miserable day, it was so nice to settle into our quaint little room and have a cosy night in.
I had been carrying a few ingredients around with me for days โ rice, spinach, leek and most of what I needed for a risotto. I was only missing a couple of things, including the white w**e and thyme, but I thought, well, I've got everything else, so let's use it! ๐
So out came the Thermy and I whipped up a beautiful, hearty spinach and leek risotto for our dinner. ๐ฅฌ๐ง

Thereโs something pretty satisfying about turning a handful of ingredients you've been carting around on a road trip into a delicious homemade dinner!
And Port Fairy itself was gorgeous. After the rain and grey skies, we woke to a much calmer morning and this beautiful view of the boats and marina. โต๏ธโค๏ธ
Itโs been such a lovely little adventure โ travelling for the wedding in the Dandenongs, exploring Victoria, visiting the Twelve Apostles and now making our way back home to South Australia.
Sometimes you don't need a fancy restaurantโฆ just a cosy room, a Thermy and a few bits and pieces from the fridge! ๐โค๏ธ
