Ever woken up on a Sunday morning starving? Yeah me too. But I don’t like a British Fry-up too much, the whole beans and tomatoes and mushroom isn’t really my thing. What I can deal with however, is egg and bread. Of course I could just boil the thing, or scramble it. But a good … Continue reading

Food, Glorious Food!
Everybody needs to eat. We all know that, yet food shopping is often likened to a chore rather than a pleasure. But do you ever remember going food shopping with your parents when you were young? How exciting it was to sit in the trolley and pretend you were driving a car through the aisles? … Continue reading
Ice Ice Baby
After trying my hand at FroYo and doing it with a little twist I decided to go all in and make real ice cream. Since Ferrero Rocher flavour is my favourite, and so far I’ve only had it in Spain and Germany and it’s awesome there, I decided to find a recipe. The closest I … Continue reading
Mozzarella squares
I recently discovered Mozzarella sticks (yes, I know, I’ve been missing out) and when I had some leftover mozzarella from my Mediterranenan Chicken, and I was about to eat gnocchi with pesto sauce (store bought, I’m not at THAT stage yet- lol) I decided to try them out myself! I found a couple of recipes … Continue reading

The recipe called for red and yellow peppers, spinach and basil, but my fridge and my wallet weren’t being cooperative. … Continue reading

I thought I’d try it as a Froyo and here’s how that went. Please follow the instructions from the last article which tell you how … Continue reading
Freeze! Making my own frozen yoghurt :D
For my recent 24th birthday, my ever-awesome-Mama got me an ice cream maker. Ever since I’d tried SNOG, it was my dream to be able to have it whenever I wanted, and without having to dish out £10 for travel and the food. Anyway, machine is here and today was the day to try it … Continue reading
Making my first Quatre-quarts
If there’s one cake I remember most about childhood in France it’s Quatre-quarts (Pound cake it seems over here). It’s so cheap to buy that most people have it for children’s birthdays, or I used to eat it a lot when I went to centres aérés (recreation centres) as a kid. But even though I … Continue reading
