It’s Sausage Roll time again! I’m not sure why but I only seem to make these at Christmastime when what I should be doing is making them CONSTANTLY and eating nothing but them right throughout the year. They are that good! I’ve made several batches as they have been requested and I find it best [...]

Chicken stock is a staple in my kitchen/fridge/freezer and as I use it an awful lot in my cooking it never lasts very long. This is a very easy, non-scientific way of making a great tasting stock and therefore not letting any of the bird go to waste. We had roast chicken for lunch last [...]

It’s the weekend! You gotta love Fridays. I do love Fridays, I love them a lot, but I also love Thursday nights. When I was a young thing and living the life in London, Thursday would be the night that we all hauled ourselves down to The Met Bar. Apparently it’s London’s byword for cool [...]

This past Saturday we made the most of the sun and had our lunch outside. I bought my twin girls and husband over to see Cherry & Robert (Cha-Cha & Rot-Bot as they are more commonly known) and we cooked them lunch. Our motivation was that this would most probably be the last time my [...]
