George Negus was a giant of Australian journalism. His courage, curiosity and integrity gave millions of Australians a sense of the big issues on 60 Minutes, and a window to the world through Foreign Correspondent. George sought and served the truth with steely determination and a twinkle in his eye, and along the way, he made even the smallest TV screen feel that much bigger. He was a wonderful human being and his loss will be deeply felt by so many Australians. We offer his family the heartfelt condolences of our nation. May he rest in peace.

All across Victoria, there are people forced to isolate without access to work or food. Our office staff are pulling up their sleeves - accountants, our food team, our School Breakfast Club crew - all pitching in to get food to Victorians in need. #Lockdown4

Breadmaking is one of those almost hypnotic businesses, like a dance from some ancient ceremony... There is no chiropractic treatment, no Yoga exercise, no hour of meditation in a music-throbbing chapel that will leave you emptier of bad thoughts... MFK Fisher Agree?

It was a joy to write about #merenda, the Italian snack time of my childhood, in my most recent piece for @SBSFood: sbs.com.au/food/article/2020…
Merenda is the Italian food ritual we all need right now

Merenda is the Italian food ritual we all need right now

Even though Italy's afternoon snack time, known as merenda, is meant for children - it's good for adults too.

Happy birthday to John Gould, born #OnThisDay in 1804. Gould was one of the most significant ornithologists of the Victorian age. The birds of Australia is one of his greatest achievements, not only for its scale but also for its beauty and accuracy. bit.ly/3keKFJn
