Being interviewed on ABC Radio today!

Eek! I'm being interviewed today on ABC Radio Canberra about the facebook group I started called "The Women's Weekly Birthday Cake Book is awesome" (which I have already written about on Melbourne Gastronome here).

I'm due to be on the Afternoon Show sometime between 1:30-2:30pm local (and Melbourne) time (luckily, I can work my lunch hour around this)... and the big news is that hopefully Pamela Clark, the author of all the Australian Women's Weekly recipe books and director of the AWW test kitchen, will also be on the air with me!!

You can't listen to it on the radio unless you live in the 'berra, but it can be streamed live online here, so listen in if you've got the time. Wish me luck!!

Well, unfortunately for ABC listeners Pamela Clark had a scheduling conflict, so it was just me as Genevieve Jacob's guest. I hope I sounded okay... Genevieve was lovely and friendly, and my favourite part of the interview was when we joked about how creepy the Rubber Ducky cake looks with his popcorn afro, liquorice eyeliner and salty chip beak! It was good hearing her dial-in listeners sharing their AWW birthday cake stories on air too. The producer has promised to email me a recorded copy of the interview so that Mum can have a listen. Now, back to work!! :)
