A little me time…
Whoops. I seemed to have buried myself into a deep hole these past few months. Sometimes life just accelerates at such a pace that you don’t realise that 3 months have passed by. I’m not sure where the time has gone. It seems a lifetime of coughs, colds and high temperatures between my family paired…
Chocolate Orange Profiteroles
It’s that time of year again. A time for reflection and a time to sit back and enjoy ourselves with our loved ones. But it’s also an incredibly busy and somewhat stressful time too, let’s be honest! I truly do love Christmas. I love the decorations, the movies, and of course the food. I also…
Buttermilk Chicken, Waffles and a Chilli Maple Syrup

Spaghetti Pomodoro
Is there anything more comforting than a bowl of pasta? A bowl of pasta coated in a fragrant tomato sauce topped with parmesan cheese, basil and extra virgin olive oil. I’m not sure there is, especially on a rainy day. A trip down memory lane… Spaghetti Pomodoro has been one of my favourite dishes ever…

Strawberries and Cream
Who is enjoying Wimbledon this year? I absolutely love watching Wimbledon. I have followed it for years as my Dad got me interested in it and I became more and more hooked. We used to sit for long afternoons eating popcorn and watching nervously as the contestants battled it out. I love how professional the…
