Spice Winter

Ah yeah Spice Winter (Issue 7) is out. It's an odd one but a good one. Not odd as in stories on Victorian Era Magnetic Therapies odd (that's Autumn '08) but more that it's the first edition where the two main stories haven't been food - Margaret River Shiraz and food packaging design. Otherwise it felt like the first one where I felt at ease (judged by gaviscon consumption). I mean it still involved roasting and photographing veges early on a Sunday morning with a hangover five days before going to press, a very speciall appearance by my car's hula mascot, and mentally willing the delay of a the birth of child by a day or two so we could get a story and the cover shot done.

It's all good.

Anyway, it's available on all good shoe-surrounded renovated verandah chairs, newsagencies across Australia and the following places. (subscriptions!)
