For Robert and I, after 35 years of raising children, here we were - fitting neatly into the category of empty nesters.

More Australians than ever now live in households of one or two - empty nesters, young couples, urban singles, teenagers setting up their first homes. Yet most cookbooks still cater to large families. With this in mind, best-selling author and home cook Sally Wise has produced her first cookbook for the small household.
