INGREDIENTS FOR LIFE

GARDENING IS A FAMILY AFFAIR for cookbook author, journalist and meteorologist Magdalena Roze. The 38-year-old enjoys nothing more than getting out in the vegetable garden at her home in Byron Bay, NSW, with her two children Archie, four, and two-year-old Charlie. “The kids love the vegie garden, it really is their happy place. They get involved and enjoy every aspect from setting it up with the digging of the dirt and planting seedlings, to watering, picking things for us and feeding the worms,” Magdalena says. “Sometimes I see Archie sitting in the middle of the vegie patch munching on something and it makes me so happy.”
