No Spiralizer? No Problem!
If you haven’t heard of the Spiralizer yet, I imagine you must have been living under a cabbage patch. We have become a nation of manicured vegetable fanatics. There were 7,193 images on instagram when I searched for #courgetti today. I imagine that courgette sales since January must be at a record high. Which must be leaving the pasta makers at Napolina quivering in their beautiful...
Oeufs Epicées (spicy eggs to me and you)
It’s no secret that I love an egg, and a spicy one at that so I thought I’d share this latest HOT addition to my recipe scrap book! I cannot claim this recipe as my own, it was made for me by my friend Jim at his lovely holiday home (its the only reason I am...
How to make granola
If you frequent this site, you will know that I LOVE breakfast. Weekend breakfast is an official thing at our house.

This was followed swiftly by the Gin Age, in which we went to Gin Stock, scoured the supermarket to find THE TONIC, and decorated our glasses with anything...

Anyway, its easy and quick-ish to...
Perfecting the Art of Breakfast
I haven’t always enjoyed breakfast. In fact in my late teens I actively avoided it. I mean why bother getting up for a bowl of sloppy grey cereal when I could spend at least another 15 minutes in bed? Over a decade later I’m proud to announce I finally get it. Breakfast has become a...
