It’s been a crazy time. We went to Los Angeles for Christmas and new year, we got caught up on the chaos that was “Gatwick Dronegate” but we are now back in the UK. Whenever we travel, once home and over the jet lag I like to spend a day, or at least a long…

Honey & Chilli Glaze
Just a quick one for now…. I ❤️ honey. I really do and I’m so fortunate that I can get good local honey from where my work office is in Upshire. Local bees collecting pollen from local flowers and the resulting honey travelling just 5 miles before consumption in my home. Now, tonight is Pork…
Easy Chicken Soup
I love a good soup! Be it a decent tinned soup that we turn to for comfort or a posh carton soup for decadence, soup is a real go to comfort food. Before my SlimmingWorld journey I would often just reach for a tin of tomato soup and consume it with a huge cheese toastie….

The Dinner with No Name
Regular readers will know that I have a little ritual with meals that I create in the kitchen, I actually have many rituals, but this one involves naming my meals. The names range from “Bunion Risotto” to “Shirley Valentine” (Chips and Egg) for those who have not seen the film or remember the famous “We…
