So today, I decided at the last minute I was going to bake something for pudding for our dinner. We don’t usually have puddings (other than yogurt) so this was a treat! I had about 10 mins spare (well as spare as time gets when your a parent!) so I looked in the cupboards and … More Quick Blueberry Muffins Recipe
I’ve been under the weather recently, we’ve just had one illness after the other in our house! So today I decided I needed to treat my body to something good. It was craving some health! I needed a superfood salad! So whilst out and about I picked up everything I needed and couldn’t wait to … More Easy healthy superfood salad recipe
Today, I made this impromptu crumble for our dinner. We don’t normally have home made puds during the week! But I’m currently off work and feeling particularly domesticated! My hubby came back from the allotment with some home grown rhubarb and we still had some of last years blackberries to use up, so we had … More Blackberry & Rhubarb Crumble with crunchy Muesli topping
I wasn’t sure whether this would work or not, but thankfully it did. I’ve not added honey to a sponge mixture before, so was experimenting a little, but it paid off. For this recipe I used some of last years blackberries from the freezer, to make room for our new pickings soon! I think this … More Blackberry & Honey Loaf Cake
We’ve been baking again! It was an utterly miserable day today, I’ve not seen rain like it for a while. Where’s the summer gone?! Not a great start to the school holidays! But a great excuse to do some more baking. I hardly ever make chocolate cakes as I’ve had some major fails in the … More Chocolate Chip Muffins with Galaxy Frosting
Another pasta dish, from our family favourites! My kids will virtually eat anything with pasta so it’s a great way to get meat/protein in to them! This time we mixed up lovely roast chicken left over from the day before roast dinner. I’m all for using up leftovers in a creative and yummy way! Time … More Leftover Roast Chicken Pasta
This is my recipe for an easy all in one sponge, which is no fail every time. This time I used it for my baby girls birthday cake for her first birthday. Super super simple sponge cake.

1. Reading nursery rhymes to my boy. I’ve always read a bedtime story to my little boy and this week he chose his Nursery Rhyme book, which we’ve not read for ages. We read half of it last night and the other half tonight. We lay on the bed and he cuddled right in to … More My Weekly Happy List: Week 11
This is a really basic pasta recipe with extras added. We tend to change it depending on what we’ve got in the fridge. We make this when we’ve got nothing in, so raid the cupboards and we always have a bag of pasta and a tin of tomatoes at the back of the cupboard! The … More Crispy bacon & sausage pasta
