It’s a funny little story this. I bought a fairly cheap bike online but then thought it was the wrong size so cancelled it all and got a refund. Kevin suggested I find a bike shop nearby as the...
Here are some Spring recipes I did for Sister Mag’s second issue. I need to go back to my macrobiotic phase – I felt so much better! Trouble is with Albion Cafe around the corner from work and ...
Astrid and Edith at sunset. I don’t think I’ve ever rendered myself speechless with my photos before. But that top one of Astrid. Pff.
All my instagrams of our lovely time at Daylesford Organic Farm in the Cotswolds Hello friends. Here, by request, are the instagrams from our trip. It was great fun sharing the natural beauty of the ...
Last weekend we went to the most wonderful Honeysuckle Cottage at Daylesford Organic Farm in the Cotswolds. It was so perfect and so idyllic we’re going back on Monday to look at the local scho...
When I took these photos it was a few weeks ago. A few weeks ago just before it started to rain. We had been to the garden centre and bought some new plants and then it started to rain and we went in...
This cake just wouldn’t photograph colour-wise. I love the composition though. I spent all last week baking and cooking for a digital magazine article that’s due now. Time to finish every...
Right. We’re all back here now. All posts are ported back to A+B – although I will be keeping Lovely Food with duplicate content for now. It was a fun adventure trying a new blog. It went well....
I’ve always been under the impression Sushi was imposible to make and required great skill to get it rolled and that it would all fall apart until I’d spent months practicing. Astrid howe...
Last week I went to the Country Living Fair to look at lots of lovely interior and textiles things. I had three hours from yo to go and when I got there and looked out across all the stands I though...
Lemon and Honey cake at Lovely Food Weekend in our house is gardening time. In amongst managing the Edith behaviour. Edith’s terrible twos are peaking. Edith is now three. There was a small Edi...
It’s Franklin birthday season from late December to early March. Well, late March if you count Mum, which I suppose one should. Just because she’s no longer on this earthly plane doesn...
Spring is officially here – it’s the 21st of March – and to prove it I’m as busy as a little bee. There’s a lemon cake in the oven, I’ve just baked a lovely loaf of Eink...
It was my birthday on Monday, and in our house blueberry and chocolate cake is called birthday cake. To make it even more special we sprinkled it with sugar and pretty edible petals from Steenbergs. ...
Outtake – final Violet Cakes photos at Lovely Food Ah, I love waking up at 6.30am on a Sunday and coming downstairs with Astrid. Even better this morning it was raining, which meant we didn’t h...
While I wait for photoshop to arrive in the post for my new Mac and I can’t patchwork a bunch of photos together here’s a gallery of photos I’ve uploaded recently to my Lovely Food ...
It’s almost Spring! And with that time for a bit of a clean sweep. And some new growth. With a few food projects under way this year and my growing realisation that I want to do more profession...
Raspberry and walnut tart Hello, I am moving my hosting from the unreliable one to the good one, so Anknel and Burblets might disappear in a couple of days for an hour or two. Should all be ok – but ...
LEFT: 6.5st // RIGHT A+B Hello. I know it’s been all baking around here lately. That’s been the plan all along. As part of that Alison and I have begun 44 times two again this year. Can y...
Nobody else in the house eats marmalade but that won’t stop me. A few years back I made grapefruit marmalade as well as a mandarin marmalade using fruit from a neighbour’s trees in Mt Alb...
I know it’s not the orange blossom and cardamom cake – but there were too many bananas and I needed to bake this one while I was off work this week. Actually I made two and they’re all bu...
Hello! I’ve been so busy working and after-hours building a website for a client I’ve not had much time to be here – although I’ve been thinking about my blog every day and the thin...
I’ve been up late tonight ressurecting an old project. Something that’s coming back to life. Soon. Very soon. Very exciting to be back in blog land. And back with my old friends. It’...
The last time we had a birthday party for the girls was Edith’s first birthday and Astrid’s third. We skipped last year. I’m so tired. I’ve been working weekends and evenings ...
My favourites of late. Cooking from the Moro. Essences from Steenbergs. Tea with cute packaging design from Higher Living. I’ve been in pitch hell for the past two weeks at work. People followi...
Dear Best Friend, I still love you to bits. I am greatly sad you won’t see me anymore because my relationship with Kevin hasn’t been perfect. I am a hopeless old fool following you around...
Top: Rufus; Bottom: Oscar (and we need to clean the windows eek) Rufus and Oscar have settled into London life. Again. They’ve both carved out their neighbourhood territories and places they go...
Hard to believe I’ve never baked a chocolate cake but usually all I ever bake is my 1 cake 100 ways. And this required a new method. I used the Donna Hay recipe from Modern Classics 2 although ...
This weekend I made hot chocolate each morning for myself and the girls. Saturday Edith made big tall towers of the old kitchen containers while I cleaned and filled the beautiful new Le Parfait jars...
