Our garden has been looking very neglected for a long time. We do try, but green-fingered skills don’t seem to come naturally to us, even the grass is stubby and scruffy! I’ve planted so many flowers and plants only to have them devoured by slugs and add to that some neglectful watering and you have a recipe for disaster.Bearing this in mind I decided to … Continue reading Colourpop Garden Furniture Project, Part One

We topped ours with tomato purèe, … Continue reading A Pizza the Action
No, it’s not carrot and coriander (or chilli chowder for any Mighty Boosh fans) but a medley I have christened Spiced Butternut Munchkin. Bursting with sweetness from roasted butternut squash and munchkin pumpkins and livened up with a kick of cumin and chilli powder, it’s the perfect warmer for a winter’s day, plus it’s soya free, dairy free, egg free, gluten free and peanut free … Continue reading Soup, Soup a Tasty Soup
