Shepherds pie

Today I'm going to attempt my first ever Shepherd's pie! I'm a little nervous, but the recipe looks good so hopefully it will taste nice. I'm not much of a fan of lamb mince, too 'meaty' but hopefully this will be OK. In fact lamb is hard to get here, I suppose that Australia's old slogan of 'riding on the sheep's back' is still partly true.

We've also realised that the Woolies slogan "Australians are fresh food people" is actually true - who knew it wasn't just a marketing gimmick! Really miss the variety and lack of over packaging we found in Australia. Even rice is in the 'foreign' section of the supermarket.
