I’ve never been a fan of party rings. One bad experience as a child has put me off for life – too many consumed at a birthday party, coupled with many a go on the bouncy castle and you can imagine the rest… I was Read More
I have an extremely vivid food memory. I can remember specific moments in my life purely from what food was eaten at the time. An insanely good packet of salt&vinegar crisps shared in my first flat; a hearty pulled pork burger with bacon jam eaten Read More
Sausage rolls are a staple in British culture. They’re great for a lunch box, picnic and are always on hand at a buffet. I mean there’s even been two Christmas Number 1’s dedicated to loving sausage rolls…seriously. I’m a big fan, and I make them Read More
I have been utterly obsessed with strawberries recently. I’ve chomped my way through punnet after punnet. I’m not sure if they’re especially good at the moment, or if I’ve just gotten a sudden craving? Though I did hear that due to the lack of Wimbledon Read More
