munchie monday: pizza dough

Leave a Comment Posted by on January 31, 2011

I want to share with you a pizza dough recipe which we tested out with our neighbours a few weekends ago.  Over Christmas Mark and I acquired a couple of pizza stones (he is pretty much a full-on pizza addict) and so it only seemed right to give them a trial run with proper homemade [...]

monday munchie: red onion marmalade

1 Comment Posted by on January 17, 2011

I found this as part of making this ‘crowd pleaser’ filo tart.  Afterwards we agreed it was totally a crowd pleaser and that it would be easier to make mid-week if you used puffy pastry instead of filo pastry and that the red onion marmalade was a) delicious but b) a bit of a time [...]

Pukka tea!!

1 Comment Posted by on December 23, 2010

I recently got sent some Pukka teas to try and am working my way through them.  The three ginger is amazing and has totally taken over from my love of twinnings lemon and ginger. Not sure how I feel about liquorice in my teas though… Any Pukka tea recommendations?

let’s talk meal planning – take 1

I was lonely over at my ‘new’ blog. It was like when you’re younger and you hate your name so ask everyone to call you, in my case, Beth. But then you forget to answer to Beth because really who you are is intrinsically tied up in your name. So to lessen the identity crisis [...]

…counting the pennies

Just for laughs look at this guy from the train station the other morning – I think he needs to come to terms with the fact he is going bald! ~~~~~ So I haven’t totally come up with a ‘plan’ yet.  But I have looked at my incomings, outgoings (direct debits etc), checked my overdraft [...]

Recipe: Flu Detox

So at the weekend I managed to book in a date with my fabulous hippy-esque friend miranda.  Which also meant somewhere funky for lunch and a squeeze of her gorgeous baby and chit chat with her teenage daughter.  Fab fab fab!  I know wish I had taken some pictures but I was just too busy [...]

After an action packed weekend despite my original plans for today being dead in the water (long story, lets not go there) I decided to still have the day off work.  So there was nothing else for it but to make myself a luscious breakfast!  It is a slight twist on a recipe in a [...]

Sunday Summary…sort of…

1 Comment Posted by on September 19, 2010

So this week has been fairly rubbishy.  I was ill and wouldn’t take time off because of an important workshop I was involved in.  Which meant that by Wednesday my voice had gone…  Obviously because I took next to no time off work the viral infection has become pretty nasty and I feel a little [...]

Pop goes the weasel…

You can keep your peaches and your plums… But if you’ve got a nectarine I gotta have me one! Did you like my cheesy little rhyme?  Hehe  As for the popcorn, I love it – like actually could eat it everyday.  With the added bonus that it is only 123 calories for the 25g bag!  [...]

This was amazing to try…and I definitely think I would like to try it again.  But it wouldn’t be a weekly occurance and next time I would make sure I booked in the for fish treatment and the foot massage…the massage looked amazing, kinda reflexology-esque… This shop was also on Holland Street, it is called [...]
