A little while a go, Meg at Raw Halo contacted me and asked me whether I would like to create a recipe for her to use at the Fare Healthy event in September. Raw Halo is my favourite raw chocolate brand around and Meg has…
There are no two ways about it, coconut oil is quite honestly my number one kitchen and beauty staple and I hope it will be yours too by the end of this blog post. Over the last few years coconut oil has been widely publicised and…
It is my dream that one day we will live in the countryside and I will have a vegetable patch where I can grow an abundance of fruits, herbs and vegetables. Living in the city its not quite so easy. We have a lovely little garden, but…
It’s our final couple of days in the flat now before we move house so we’re amidst a chaos of boxes and clutter. I’ve been trying to use up a lot of what we have in the fridge along with some cupboard staples and thought…

Thought I’d post this JUST in time for breakfast! Since I gave up dairy 10 months ago I have noticed a significant difference in my general health. Every morning at work I used to have organic yoghurt with blueberries and pumpkin seeds. I’d always feel…
I made up this recipe late last year and since then it has become a weekly breakfast treat. Created at home, it was a Sunday  morning and all I had in my kitchen were eggs and blueberries, so I decided to experiment with what I had.…
