KIDS BOOK REVIEW With Grace Webb

Not Pretty but Practical Cooking with Norma Shannon • Norma was at the Nutrien Classic in Tamworth when Bristow Hughes phoned and asked if I was available to fill in for three weeks as station cook at Murray Downs. I would also be taking aerial photos of the property for the purpose of development documentation. I’ve worked for Bristow a number of times short term and am always up for a new adventure so jumped at the opportunity. Originally Kate asked me to send in a couple of recipes and photos for the Cooking section in the Australian Campdrafting Magazine. What was to be a three week stint as station cook turned into much more of an adventure that I could have planned.
