No bake mint chocolate cheesecake

I think it's been about 10 months since I last visited here. Life with two small people is needless to say, very busy. Jam packed really. It makes for a full day. But I wouldn't have my life right now any other way.

Easy upsidedown pineapple cake

Now that during the day we are three, me, a very little and helpless human and an independent, talkative, whirlwind of a toddler, activities to do with the later, to make her feel included and secure.

Cafe de Paris butter recipe

This post is a long time coming. A long time. Pregnancy stopped me in my tracks in more ways than simply preventing me from posting here. My main focus was on growing a healthy baby.

Peach and burrata salad

I know. I know. I feel a bit sheepish coming back, but I really really would like to explain where I've been. And also make my comeback along with a killer summer peach and burrata salad.

Almond tart with strawberries

I can't really keep it a secret any longer. If you visit here often you're going to notice sooner or later anyway, so I'd better come clean. For the last three months I have been living in a house with views.

A very easy garlic prawn entree

Prawns plus garlic. The perfect combination. Add some fresh bread and you have a very easy garlic prawn entrée. The best thing about this starter is that it's served 'en papillote' or in the bag.

Mozzarella salad with celery and walnuts

I realise that cooking in this pre prepared way may not be in alignment with everyone's personalities and that some people are more inclined to leave things until the last moment.
