Christmas may have been and gone, but I’m still clinging on the one of iconic fruits of the season. The clementines. The zesty little creature that is waiting in everyone fruit bowl waiting patiently until you’ve finished off all the meat and chocolate…
Before Christmas, I wrote about visiting Mishkin’s with an old uni friend and how much fun it was. I missed that crazy cat and realised we had the same level of greed when it comes to good food. There were…
October last year I had the great pleasure and honour of being my lovely cousin’s bridesmaid. It was a beautiful day and with great little details, my cousin and her husband had put a lot of thought into. My cousin’s…
This post is really late, I’ve been in London for the last two weekends (got some fun stuff to share though) so a bit behind posting this – sorry! Me and my family decided to mix it up this Christmas. That we…
I have a love affair with America. Think it started when I was 5 and my parents surprised me and my older brother by taking us to Florida to meet Mickey – the mouse not a weird random… It’s fair to say…
I’m not a newcomer when it comes to home curing meat. Oh no – let us not forget The Beast of 2011 (my first attempt of homemade pastrami) and the slightly furry pancetta that maybe didn’t get as much attention…
I’m a massive tart. A blog reading tart that is before you get any other thoughts about me…. I blame Bloglovin being my enabler. I simply add the blog I want to follow and delightfully they let me know when said…

Once again I’ve explored my love for America by again making one of Joy the Baker’s recipes and found my new favourite recipe. Me and my houses mates have formed a tradition for our university days – weekend pancakes. Normally slightly…
This time of the year, the blogs and especially American blogs are all showing off what they can do with pumpkin or some sweet potatoes. Being from the UK, I can’t say we embrace the Autumn produce as much our…
Saturday shall now be called Marshmallowgate. I try to be a caring friend and think there should be marshmallows for everyone in the world. So when I started out to make some fluffy, lighter than a cloud marshmallows, I bought especially…
Some things remind me of dinner parties my parents held when I was younger. Elizabeth Shaw Mint Crisp Chocolates (that would be leftover from coffee and me and my brother could have one for breakfast). The smell of my mum’s…
My parents are sweeties. Last Christmas, they got my brother, my sister in law and myself really thoughtful presents. Not that don’t always get us thoughtful presents, but these were more experiences so the three of us had fun things planned throughout…
So back in May time, I made for the first time some glorious gherkins and said I would post some pictures of them after they’ve had their 2 months hibernating away in my cupboard. I realised it has been longer…
