It may feel horribly wintery, suddenly cold and dark all the time, but the tomatoes available are still sweet and delicious.
Ginger Cupcakes
This recent cold snap has made me think of warming spices and anything comforting and cosy.
Gooey Cornflake, Marshmallow and Chocolate Cookies
I found this recipe online a while ago which looks like the ultimate over the top version of a chocolate chip cookie – I’ve had it ‘bookmarked’ in my mind and just had to gi…
Christmas Cake
Since today is ‘Stir up Sunday’, the last Sunday before Advent and the day you are supposed to make a traditional Christmas cake, this spurred me on to make a friendly version.

I have to apologise for the sudden overuse of chocolate chips in my recipes – I bought a job load of these wonderful EnjoyLife chocolate chips and i just can’t seem to resist using them…

Blinis with Lentil Caviar
I had intended on posting this recipe before NYE, but what with Christmas and school holidays I just didn’t get round to it.

Greek Style Giant Couscous Salad
You often find giant Israeli couscous in shop-bought salads, but it was only this week that I noticed a pack in the supermarket locally.
Rainbow Cookies
I’m always looking for new, interesting and pretty cookie ideas – everyone gets sick of the same thing all the time.
