Being the proud Mum of two gorgeous teenage daughters, Gemma in University and Kyra in 6th Form, I feel like our home is constantly in study mode as somehow it always feel like we have exams looming. I’m not a helicopter Mum, I leave my girls to do their own thing during these times, but…
This recipe is a firm family favourite during winter. It is the ultimate comfort pudding served warm with a scoop of ice-cream and a generous drizzle of caramel after a hearty meal or served cold as cake for a celebration or afternoon tea. Somehow this image ended up looking like a scene from a Halloween…
Guess what!! You can have fun with your food whilst keeping it clean and healthy. Why is it that vegans have such stunning Instagram accounts with beautiful food photographed with flowers and gorgeous colours and Paleo folk post is just plain old food!! Are we just more serious than vegans, naaahhhh can’t be? It certainly…
I just adore pears…and wine, so what could be a more perfect pudding than poached pears. These pears are a little different because I bought a few extra bottles of mulled wine after the Christmas rush and put them aside for a rainy day, or a snowy day in February. Why mulled wine? Well, all…
Well, it is 2019 and let’s just say that my past few weeks of the festive season have definitely been more 20% than 80%, but do you know what…I loved it and I’m very happy with that! No regrets at all! That being said, the time has come to accept that the holidays are now…
Wishing everyone a wonderful 2019 full of happy memories.

I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this in any previous posts, but I come from a long blood line of ice-cream lovers! My dad is not interested in any pudding besides a bowl of ice-cream, I’m still trying to work out if it is because he was a war baby or maybe just deprived as…
“It’s starting to feel a lot like Christmas”…. Woohoo my favourite time of the year!! I remember as a little girl, my folks would turn Christmas into the most magical time for us, my brother and I would always decorate the tree together, and then on Christmas Eve we would go to bed early bursting…
I’m still trying to come up with a name for these because Christmas cupcakes sounds really blah (which they are anything BUT)…someone on my Instragram suggested cuppies because they really are a beautiful marriage between an almond cupcake and mince pie. Being fortunate enough to live in the country and down the road from the…
