24.01.2022 Did you know that it takes only 20 seconds for a child to drown? It's Water Safety Week and as the weather warms up we need to aim to reduce the number of drowning incidents in Victoria over the summer period. Supervision is constant visual contact with your child. Make sure you are in a position to respond quickly by keeping children under 5 years within arms’ reach and children under 10 years always in sight. ... Supervision is not an occasional glance while you read or undertake household chores, and it is not looking outside at your kids playing while you are inside. Supervision Tip: Minimise any temptation to leave a child unsupervised near water by having everything ready before bathing your child or going for a swim (i.e. towels, sunscreen, dry clothes, phone etc.) Learn more via the website: http://ow.ly/iaky50CsR3P #duckwatch #watersafetyweek2020 #PISBTW #watersafety #safersummer #childsupervision

21.01.2022 Masterclass: How to make the perfect sponge cake. Baker Adam Cox knows a thing or two about sponge, having made cakes for plenty of celebrity customers, including Ralph Lauren, Damien Hirst, Jonathan Ross and Jimmy Carr. Follow his 10 simple tips that will produce a light, fluffy, moist triumph, every time. Have your ingredients ready... Have all ingredients prepared and weighed out before starting to mix. This will ensure that the mixing process can be completed without having to stop and start while you're weighing out, which could result in over-mixing. Room temperature Keep all ingredients at room temperature (butter nice and soft, eggs not too cold). By having the eggs at room temperature, it means the yolks and whites combine more easily, ensuring a more even bake. Mix it up Use a mixer if possible to cream the butter and sugar first. This is the quickest and most effective way to get a creamy consistency in your batter. Gently does it Fold in the flour gently by hand. This is the best way to combine heavy ingredients with light ones, to ensure that as much air is retained in the mixture as possible. DON'T over-mix Over-mixing can make the mixture curdle, which affects the overall bake of the cake. Add milk If your mixture looks too thick, add a drop of milk. This will help to keep both your mixture and the consistency of the cake smooth. A thick, stodgy mix will most likely end up as a thick, stodgy cake! Keep it real When adding flavour, use real ingredients such as vanilla pods and lemon zest wherever possible, as these provide the best flavour. Grease up Always line the tin using greaseproof paper. Using butter can make the cake greasy after it has finished baking. Patience Don't open the oven too soon, no matter how eager you are! The air release will cause the cake to drop. Enjoy making it! If you are relaxed then it always comes across in the end result.

21.01.2022 5 REASONS YOU NEED A RUG IN YOUR HOME! A rug can effortlessly transform any room. Plus, they also offer a range of practical benefits from warming your home, to reducing noise and protecting your floor. Here are our top suggestions to help you find the perfect rug for your room! ... Modern or traditional. For a more traditional look, opt for a Persian or Provincial style rug. Or, if you want to make a bold statement with colour or texture, choose a modern abstract or block-colour rug. Got kids? Wool rugs are beautiful, but they also pile, which may not be great for crawling babies or young children. And for a kids’ room, acrylic heat-set weave rugs generally provide more affordable options that will better withstand wear and tear. Consider the traffic. Consider how much foot traffic your rug is going to be exposed to. High-pile rugs will wear easily and more obviously in a busy room, while low-weave rugs like sisal will withstand heavier and more regular foot traffic. Size matters. When choosing a rug think about the size of your room. Nothing looks worse than a too-small rug in a large room. If you’re unsure, it’s always better to go a little larger as placing furniture on (rather than around) a rug is a style statement in itself.

13.01.2022 GREENING YOUR SPACE: PLANT TRENDS AND TIPS We all love a little greenery around the home! Check out our top tips for making your indoor plants really pop! Hanging plants. Hanging plants are a great way of incorporating greenery into smaller indoor and outdoor spaces. Select plants that are easy to look after, work best for the space where you are displaying them and suit the amount of natural light and moisture available. Opt for plants like geraniums or ferns that are l...arge enough to spill over the basket. Clusters. Why not draw attention to the greenery in a room by creating a plant cluster? Use a minimum of three plants, with contrasting colours, textures and forms and place them in an eye-catching location. Climbers. Take a leaf out of Joost Bakker’s book and opt for climbing plants for walls and fences to cover or soften indoor and outdoor spaces. A laser cut metal screen attached is great for growing plants through and will also create an appealing design feature. Choose a feature plant. Last but not least, an interesting, sculptural looking plant like a Japanese Maple or a Cardboard Palm in an antique urn is a great way to create a design centrepiece in your hall or lounge. Choose an option that works well with your colour scheme and the available space.
