Okay. Let me just day that any Faves List of mine is NOT definitive. I am totally in love with lots of things and people, so my faves are more plentiful than any list could contain. But I'm going to have a little try.  Here I go. Watch me!



1. Thomasina Miers : I love Tommi Miers.  Not only did she win Masterchef, but she went on to carve out a little bit of a restaurant empire and make three excellent TV Series (The Wild Gourmets, A Cook's Tour of Spain and Mexican Food Made Simple) and write a few books too.  I bought her latest book 'Mexican Food Made Simple' from Casa Iberica and I can not wait to get started on some of her olive oil enriched tortillas or a Bloody Maria.  She filmed the accompanying series for this book whilst pregnant and I think anyone that can do a foodie tour of Mexico and deliver not only a baby, but a book and a TV Show is totally amazing.  LOVE HER WORK.



2. Clare Bowditch : I love Clare Bowditch. Do you know what?  Apart from having a beautiful voice, great comic timing, a lovely family and clever clogs smarts, she's got grace. I would say poise, even, but the word has been commandeered by a product I do not care to talk about. CB is a super adorable lady. She's talented and funny and just a real pleasure to behold, methinks.  She works hard, speaks beautifully and can put pen to paper with mucho aplomb.  Yay for Clare. LOVE HER WORK.

3. Lucy Feagins : Lucy F is a super sweet, super smart, hard working lady. She's been blogging for QUITE a long time, at first juggling her regular job with burning the bloggy midnight oil, and now blogging full time with an editorial assistant, at The Design Files. Lucy has not only elevated blogging to its highest form, she's kept her own voice, set the industry standard in terms of aesthetics, supported the Australian design and craft community and taken her first non-virtual steps off her blog (via The Design Files Calendar in 2010 and The Design Files Open House in 2011.) She's super great and an example to us all.  Wooh to Lucy! LOVE HER WORK.

4. Ruth Bruten : Do you know Ruth? She's a wonderful lady blogger and whirlwind, passionate cook. She writes at Gourmet Girlfriend, whilst juggling delicious times with her spunky husband and their adorable bundle of creative, interesting boys (they have five!)  Ruth knows about food, life, love and family and she writes about that stuff FROM THE HEART. She's going to be big, I tell you. She's big with me already, because a determined irreverence DRIPS from the pages of her blog.  (This could even be why my 'S' key is sticking at the moment.)  I love her Real Houselives of Melbourne City vibe. I think you will like her too. And your dinner table will, in fact, love her.  Big ups to Ruth! LOVE HER WORK.

5. Sunday Ganim : My next door neighbour and super adorable blanket nut.  I love blankets. I love them a lot. I also love people who are full of life and see through the usual day to day fuzz, into a world of cheeky, joyous, good time, fun-ness. Sunday is the blankets mixed up with the cheeky joy. What's not to love about that?  Cosy-cute, yet fun!  You can find Sunday on her blog here, or at her Mum's next door to Mike's. She's a total cute-face and JUST the kind of neighbour you would want to borrow a cup of sugar from.. or a cup of confetti.. or a cup of pompoms, even.  Yippee for Sunday G!  LOVE HER WORK!

More fave ladies coming over the next few days. Who are YOUR fave ladies? Let's celebrate each other's awesomeness, shall we?!
