Q&A with Primary @ Pioneers Park Cafe manager Kerryn Mcdonald

Tell us a fun fact about yourself!

I love to play softball and I’m a New York Yankees baseball fan, but unfortunately have only ever seen one game at Yankee Stadium.

What are you most passionate about?

Being kind, you never know what someone might be going through.

What would your last meal be?

It would have to be dessert, and if I don’t have to worry about feeling sick afterwards, it would have to be a chocolate dessert.

What was your most memorable moment?

Marrying my husband, which has then created so many more memorable moments including the birth of my boys.

What was your favourite subject in school?

Home Economics – cooking has always been a passion.

Which three dinner guests, dead or alive, would you invite to dinner?

My sister who we lost 30 years ago, Walt Disney and Pink.

What are you currently listening to/watching or reading?

I’ve been digging around in the archives and have landed on Gossip Girl.

If you had to compete on MasterChef, what dish would you cook?

If I’m not baking a cake or dessert, it would have to be Ricotta and spinach agnolotti with a burnt butter and sage sauce.

Where is your dream holiday destination?

Would love to return to the USA for a bit of baseball and Disney, but with the world opening up again there’s so many places on my list.

What were you like as a kid?

Bit of a social “mumma bear”; I had two younger sisters who I adored and loved hanging out with my friends.

What was your first job?

My first fulltime job started was a six-week temporary job working with my future father-in-law in the marketing department of John Sands greeting cards. I was offered a fulltime role after one week. Never be afraid to work hard.

What’s one question you have never been able to get the answer to?

What was the real reason I was asked to leave my part-time job as a kid at Tuckerbag. Did I actually make a mistake or did I not fit into the “clique”?
