Merry Christmas everyone! It’s the best time of the year, a time when you can bake as much as you want and not feel guilty about it. So this year I decided to make gingerbread and oh my gosh they are so delicious and dangerously easy to keep eating. Now please don’t laugh at my…

Blueberries…a tasty topping!
We all know that blueberries are super healthy for us, but I have to admit I don’t eat them enough. They can be a bit expensive but I do think are worth it. I bought some recently and they are like tiny bullets of sweetness. Delicious! Of course, the baker in me wanted to cover…

Friday Night Curry…Butter Chicken
With all this hype about how butter is now good for us, I couldn’t not cook butter chicken and share it with all you lovely people. Now I don’t know if butter is good for us, bad for us, or simply tormenting us but what I do know is that it’s delicious and seems to…
Why is baking so addictive?
I don’t know what it is but I will find any excuse to bake. I will happily admit that I am not the best baker in town but I like to give it a good go. I am guilty of changing recipes based on what I have in the house, which doesn’t always go my…
The Comforts of Baking
I have to admit it, I have the baking bug. If everything I wanted to make wasn’t made from butter, cream or sugar, I would most likely bake everyday. But then again if I did this, baking wouldn’t be such a treat. The nation has gone baking mad, with the rising popularity of The Great…

Why not make your own Granola bar?
Ok so I don’t know about you but I am always hungry. I get hungry half an hour after a meal and I have no idea why. But I can’t keep eating! So I decided to make my own granola bar to give me some energy and keep me going. These are made with oats,…
Want a healthy snack? Try crispy chickpeas!
Have you ever wanted a bit of a healthier snack than some nuts covered in salt or granola bars filled with sugar? I know I have. I discovered a few recipes on roasting chickpeas in the oven. So I decided to give it a go! I simply drained a can of chickpeas and patted them…
Is Spring finally here?
The sun is shining! Let’s hope it lasts longer than England in the World Cup. I realised that the sun does wonderful things to people in England, they are whistling and smiling and generally more cheerful (until they start complaining that it’s too hot). Spring to me means fresh and colourful food. Eating colourful foods…
