Weekend Wonderings

The Christmas after I left home my youngest sister had prepared a book containing all of my family’s favourite recipes.

Weekend Wonderings

Welcome to the weekend, readers! Now, I promised earlier this week that I would share my second favourite baked goods recipe.  Gold medal is the brownies of wonder.  But this, this is a deserving second place.  We’ve all had a good lemon drizzle cake.  It’s not that difficult to knock up a decent one.  BBC Good Food do [...]

‘Tomato’ soup.

Phil’s been working a lot of nights recently, which usually means I’m a lot of lonely. Of course, I’ve had my bathroom revamp to keep me busy-it’s stil in full(ish) swing, having been slightly delayed by the ‘misplacement’ of the electric sander.
