Haggis Mac & Cheese
The day of Robbie Burns is on the approach and in this blog, I’m taking a detour on tradition with an alternative when you don’t want to plate up the token Haggis, neeps and tatties. And in true Burns style, I’ll take you into this recipe blog through the art of rhythm and rhyme… Oh the day is back, and here it returns, The day … Continue reading Haggis Mac & Cheese
Festive Focaccia
As the clock ticks closer to Hogmanay, we scatter around the shops looking for supplies to stock up the house for guests coming over to welcome the New Year.
I love being a host, but there is nothing worse than the fear of running out of food and starving your guests. Being the host comes at a cost though and if you’re too generous, you can end up spending a weighty sum.
Festive coffee syrups
It’s been just a few days since we all stood on our doorsteps to wave goodbye to the universal guest that is Christmas and we’re all well and truly skint.

Chutneys: Balsamic onion and mango
I’m quite a thoughtful person *blows own trumpet* and buying gifts for friends and family is one of the main reasons why I love Christmas. But the downside to the festive season is shopping – I detest shopping.
There’s always room for pie
Usually when September hits the count-down to Halloween starts. Planning goes into turbo mode – scrolling through google to pin down what to dress as, creating the usual Facebook event page for the annual flat party and decorations draping the flat. I love Halloween.
Mushroom and spinach pasta
It’s been one of those days again, work’s been non-stop and feels like your head might be one more question away from exploding. Five o’clock hits “yaaaaas home time”, then you realise that the last question that saved your brain from exploding is away to rear its ugly head “what do I make for dinner?”.
