Homemade Cereal Bars (Vegan & Free-From)


Homemade Cereal Bars Yesterday we had some very welcome rain. Not hard pelting rain. Not drizzly cold rain. Soft, almost snow like fine rain. The sort you want to stand in and feel on your face (or is that just me!? 😛 ) Anyway, with the rain came a sudden drop in temperature from around 26 degrees centigrade (80 f) to…

Stress-Free Holidays and a quick healthy ketchup!


Stress-Free Holidays and a quick healthy ketchup! I know! A different title this week but I thought it was about time I addressed the ‘Life’ section of my blog again as many people find the school holidays tiresome.

Lovely Lollies, Garden Update & Free-From Goodies!


Lovely Lollies, Garden Update & Free-From Goodies! Wow! First of all a BIG thank you to my wonderful hubby for battling through London just because I wanted to go to the @Allergyshow & Free-From show! 🙂 Yes, London has the tube (metro/underground) but unfortunately it’s not very mobility scooter friendly! PLUS the parking for the whole day was less than a third of…

Tantalisingly Tasty Tofu! YES really!!! & FREE show tickets!


Tantalisingly Tasty Tofu! I know! 😛 Some of you hate tofu! It’s bland. It has the texture of congealed custard. It just isn’t something you eat! I know! 🙂 That was me about two years ago! I’ve been vegetarian for over twenty years, but tofu… nope! I just didn’t get it! Let me tell you a tofu secret! Tofu is a…

Leave, Lincoln & Luscious Lasagne!


Leave, Lincoln & Luscious Lasagne! My laptop hasn’t been on since last Friday! I’m not (so I thought) interested in politics, but unless you’ve been hiding under a rock (or maybe in the desert) it’s a bit hard to avoid what’s been going on in the world. Even my primary school aged son came home and said they’d had their…

Back to Basics: Houmous!


Back to Basics: Houmous You know, houmous is one of those things which automatically gets added to the weekly shop without too much thought but it’s really so simple to make your own and takes about as long to make as it does to wrestle the box out of the cardboard sleeve and remove the plastic! 😀 Houmous (or hummus / humus) is…
