I forgot to buy cake candles. Rummaging in the depths of my baking cupboard I unearthed a motley collection of old candles. Crossing my fingers I counted them. Fifteen exactly. Lucky I had a boy with a fifteenth birthday to celebrate. Tom requested a minty chocolate cake and Chinese food for his bir ...

Like most of my recipes, this one can be adjusted to your liking. I literally made it up on Saturday morning. I originally was dreaming of these giant trumpet mushrooms at the Super G Mart – but they were out. I picked up oyster and cremini mushrooms which were just as good. If you don’t like the ta ...

This went down really well with my lot this evening. Inspired by this. I don't really enjoy frying eggs. They spit at me, and the white of one egg invariably remains inexplicably translucent and jelly-like while that of its neighbour is firm and opaque.

At last it feels like winter. The frost has remained on the ground in our little garden all weekend. A single quince still clings to the tree. After I took my photos I retreated to the warmth and comfort of my kitchen to cook some winter food. Why not make a meal of mash? I fried some onion slowly i ...

Mum came to help and advise and we were the only people at the allotment, our sole company, a woodpecker who would occasionally tap away in his hunt for a snack. I ...

Since Sainsbury’s delivered very small peppers, I stretched things by using 3 gorgeous dinky Baby Bear squash from last year’s allotment cro ...

**Monday's menu: Mac and cheese baked with ham. Leftover Chinese takeout. **Because: Kevin was in charge today. Mac and cheese with ham was a meal specifically requested for a holiday treat. **What I ate: Warmed up soup and leftover tofu and broccoli over rice. I don't like mac and cheese. See, we a ...
