It’s about homes — the people in them, the music, the paintings on the walls, the friends who drop by. All the things we share. That’s what Homemade is all about. The simple dishes you’ll find in this book have come straight from my family dinners, 9781921 696664 lunches and impromptu feasts with friends. While I cooked, friends and family took notes and this book started to take shape.’ —Anna Gare ABOUT THE AUTHOR Anna Gare developed a passion for cooking from the time she could reach the top of the kitchen bench. She spent her teens and early twenties performing in an all-girl band, the Jam Tarts, and cooked in restaurants to support her rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle. When it came time for a change, Anna established Deluxe Catering, which became one of Perth’s most successful catering companies. Anna is now a judge and mentor on Network Ten’s Junior MasterChef Australia.
