As a proud brunette myself I am usually very defensive of my colouring and will always claim brunettes are best, but on this occasion I will have to take a step down on my beliefs after making these gorgeous, rather addictive Vanessa Kimbell Vanilla Blondies. Now I really don’t want…
Raspberry Crumble Cake
I have had a little triumph today! As I have got more confident as a baker I have found its easier to play with recipes and make them my own, this recipe I saw on ‘Something For The Weekend” and originally it was a coffee and blueberry cake. As Luca…
Salted Caramel Muffins
I must confess to feeling a little sick, you see the Children are at School, all my jobs are done, its raining and I can’t face going out, so I decided to make these gorgeous muffins for the Children when they get home, but having no one here to lick…
Scrambled Eggs & Goats Cheese – Breakfast Heaven
I so wish that I had found this recipe earlier, its to die for and just perfect for this weekend, as it is Father’s Day and I decided that I would spoil Hubby rotten by making him breakfast in bed on both mornings over the weekend. My Hubby works extremely…
Lemon & Lavender Madeira Cake

Bread and Butter Pudding

Chocolate & Frangelico Madeleines
Well I think I have probably bored you enough with pasta dishes, so decided a nice little treat was in order. I wanted to make this recipe as soon as I saw it and finally got round to ordering a Madeleine tin. I must admit that I didn’t rush out…
Spaghetti alla Carbonara
Have you missed me? I know I have missed being able to Blog, all thanks to a manic life and the idiots which go by the name of BT !!! As you know we moved into our new house about 6 months ago, our Internet provider was Sky, but we…
Keik Portokali – Orange Semolina Cake
At the weekend I did ‘girly’ stuff with a new friend, I don’t normally do ‘girly’ stuff, but rather stupidly I made a promise to Hubby that this year I would try and be more ‘girly’! So Saturday was spent having my hair & nails done !!! I can’t…
Classic Lemon Tart
Its half-term week and its so nice not to have to rush around everyday doing school runs and today has been extra special as I have spent the whole day at home alone with Luca. I love spending individual time with each one of my Children, you get to learn…
