About Libby Margo Libby is a lover of all things nice (foie gras, truffles and Dr Loosen Riesling) and all things downright nasty (chickenflavoured potato chips, Costco hot dogs and Stella Artois). When she is not thinking of, blogging about and eating food, she is working as an office clerk, studying law, wasting time on Supercoach and dreaming about sojourns to Echo Beach (Daylesford is usually fine by her though).

The only downside of Jen’s meal was the small glass of gazpacho which both of us thought added nothing to the dish (‘tastes like a watered-down relish,’ Jen remarked) so that was left untouched.
