PEACH MELBA 🍑 What is Peach Melba? It’s a dessert of peaches, raspberries and vanilla named after Dame Nellie Melba. Who is she? Dame Nellie Melba was one of the most famous opera singers in the late Victorian era and her legacy lives on in the Yarra Valley. Fun fact: her face is also one side of a $100 note. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📸 @neishabreencreative ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

No amount of words can ever articulate how we’re all feeling, it’s overwhelming, devastating and utterly heartbreaking. I’ve been a little quiet here as posting anything else seemed inappropriate when so many Australians and wildlife have been affected by the bushfires. Seeing and reading all the amazing things people are doing and giving to help is heartwarming, Australia truly is a kind nation. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Like most of you, I have donated to help the heroic firefighters, the affected families and the rescued wildlife, and yet I continue to feel helpless. So have decided for the whole month of JANUARY starting today, to donate 100% of our online sales, with all proceeds, not just a percentage not just profits. Every single dollar will be donated weekly to various bushfire relief funds @cfavic @nswrfs @redcrossau @salvosau @wireswildliferescue @wildlifevictoria @zoosvictoria ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you’ve already donated, there is still more you can do in the coming months by volunteering your time and/or skills or simply continue to share posts and images. There are some amazing businesses out there that are also donating proceeds so since you’re going to be making every day purchases anyway like buying a cup of coffee or a birthday gift...buy with businesses that are supporting the bushfire appeals. I’ll be reposting any that I come across via our stories ❤️ Every little act counts. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
