Some years ago, I decided to make a “healthy” cheesecake for a family function. But the vegan blueberry concoction I served up was not well received by my sweet-toothed family – despite their best efforts to insist it was “delicious!” These days, I’m thrilled to say my repertoire has improved out of sight and even the most sceptical members of my family have been won over by some of my “trendy” dishes. And while my brother Jack still likes to make a cheeky remark, I’m sure I’ll have him on board thanks to the WD team’s excellent wrap up of the best on-trend dishes of 2019 (p66). Trust me, serving up food that’s cool AND delicious really is a piece of cake!…

She’s usually calm and collected, but Cindy Crawford is said to be in panic mode over her daughter Kaia Gerber’s new romance with Hollywood ladies’ man Pete Davidson. The comedian, 25, was spotted leaving the 18-year-old model’s apartment last week, and sources say they’re in the early stages of dating – much to 53-year-old Cindy’s horror. “She’s well aware of Pete’s terrible rep for burning through women so of course she’s worried sick,” an insider tells Woman’s Day. “This is a guy who goes from one girl to the next, and Cindy can smell trouble a mile off.” Indeed, Pete’s dating history reads like a who’s who of Hollywood beauties, with past conquests including Ariana Grande and Kate Beckinsale. “Kaia is telling everyone including her mum to take a chill…

As these photos show, Jack, 33, was spotted with Demi in LA last week – and Eugenie, 29, was nowhere in sight! Demi, 56, knows the Yorks via mutual socialite friends but she’s previously always hung out with them as a couple. “It’s surprised a lot of people how close Jack and Demi seem to be because there’s no real reason for them to be alone together,” an insider tells Woman’s Day. “Eugenie finds it inappropriate and bizarre.”…

But four months on, Woman’s Day learns Bindi, 21, and Chandler, 22 – who have been dating since 2013 – may not even make it down the aisle. “The word is they’re having serious doubts about going through with it and are talking about whether to put the whole thing on hold for now,” an insider reveals. “They portray a picture-perfect existence but there are days Bindi just wants to cry because she doesn’t know if they should really be doing this. “She and Chandler are talking very seriously about going back to the way they were, and walking away from the formality of it…

Mind if I rest my hand here? Posing shirtless in a hot tub alongside a bikini-clad Courteney Cox, a flirty-looking David Beckham was clearly having a ball.

WHY USE A SMOKER? Placing meat or other food in a smoker oven where it’s exposed to aromatic wood smoke over low, indirect heat provides aromas and flavours you can’t get from other forms of cooking. WHICH SMOKER IS BEST? A traditional smoker using hardwood charcoal or briquettes provides the most distinctive smoky flavour according to purists.  Gas smokers provide immediate ignition and easy heat adjustment. And while an electric smoker is easy to use with accurate heat control, it require mains power, so you can’t take it on a camping trip. WHICH WOOD? Choose richer woods like mesquite and hickory for beef and lamb, and cherry or alder for seafood. But don’t limit yourself to meat – try smoked cheese! Choose oak for hard cheeses and delicate flavours like…

He was the country’s most notorious killer. A monster with biceps like tree trunks who used his evil mind and his frightening strength to kill seven backpackers – and probably many more. Some say the oesophageal cancer that took the life of Ivan Milat, 74, did not come soon enough. And even on his deathbed, the infamous backpacker killer refused to admit his chilling crimes.
