Autumn Vibes! Well, I would say Autumn is well and truly here! The garden is full of orange, yellow, red and gold leaves, with the trees a colourful sight with a few green leaves interspersed on the slowly emptying branches. The evenings are already drawing in – and remember for the UK, Europe and a few other locations, the clocks…
Wholesome bites to fuel you through! Well, did that catch your eye? You might be wondering how you can plan for the unexpected? How do you know that an ‘event’ will occur? Well, planning and preparation in advance will always make anything unexpected much easier! If, for example, you have your cupboards stocked with food… tinned chickpeas, or tinned fruit…
Your flavours, refreshing and ready in minutes! What a week! Sunshine from morning until night, windows wide open, washing drying in minutes – and no need to even wonder if it’s ‘safe’ to go out without a coat. With the heat lingering, I’ve been throwing together all sorts of salads for lunch and dinner, sometimes with tofu or chickpeas, with…
Is it time to slow down? This week has been a bit crazy! You know life gets like that sometimes right! First, the weather couldn’t decide if it was still baking hot (come on, 25c in the UK is hot)! or if there was suddenly going to be an almighty downpour. I actually got stuck in the greenhouse as it…
When it’s too hot to even think about cooking! There’s been very little actual cooking in the house this week! The barbecue has made a few appearances, but most meals have been centred around salad. If you’re in the UK, you’ll likely have experienced some of the hottest weather we’ve seen in a while – so much so, I’ve been…
Easy Summer fun recipe! I hope you’ve all had a great week so far – the weekend is nearly here, and with temperatures soaring across the UK this week (yes, over 27°C and climbing!), it’s safe to say we’re all looking for ways to stay cool. What better way than with a bowl of fruity, refreshing, homemade nice-cream? If you…
Homemade yogurt easier than you think! Hello! Finally I get to share this recipe with you! I’ve been working on this for several weeks now, and I’m finally very happy with the result! This is a proper set yoghurt – the kind that firms up in its jar without needing to be stirred. It’s smooth, delicately tangy, and made with…
Simple ideas, better choices. This week has been non-stop. You know the kind – full of coordinating, planning, sorting things for everyone else… and hardly a second for yourself. So heading into yet another bank holiday (which probably means the sunshine will vanish again!), I’ve decided it’s time to slow down, breathe, and find joy in the little things –…
A healthier way to enjoy the seasonal classics This weekend (18th to 21st April 2025) sees the long-awaited bank holiday Easter weekend. A time for relaxation, indulgence, and of course, a few extra treats. Even if you don’t celebrate Easter, it’s hard to avoid all the hot cross buns! Not to mention chocolate eggs popping up everywhere this time of…
