Description

Meet Australian Outback restaurant owner Sheila and journey through her life with stories, song, bush verse, photographs and mouth-watering recipes. Sheila, born in the 1920s, was a remarkable woman and her dessert trolley was famous throughout the region. This multimedia presentation is a tribute to the resilience of our Australian bush-pioneering women, many of whom rode horses to school, raised families, cooked for shearers, lived through wars, hardship, droughts and floods, and struggled with isolation and the harsh outback.
