Pom-bear crisps seem to be a favourite with children (or maybe just the adults that buy them for the children!) but have always been out of bounds to us as even the original, salted flavour contain…
Double Chocolate Chip Muffins
It’s Sunday which means getting ready for the busy, early part of the week whilst still enjoying what remains of the weekend.
Cherry Berry Compote

Iced biscuits are cute, pretty and very popular with my children.
Beetroot, Parsnip and Horseradish Soup
This is a fantastic soup: earthy, rooty flavours with the punch of horseradish, and such a vibrant colour – a real autumnal warmer! Beetroot, Parsnip and Horseradish Soup (dairy-free, egg-fre…
Homemade HobNots (almost a HobNob)
Almost a McVities HobNob, but not quite! By making the classic McVities Hobnob type cookie at home you can guarantee that even the chocolate version is free of milk.
Apple and Cinnamon Cake
I don’t seem to be making much headway with the piles of apples that need using up.

It was Little S’s 6th Birthday yesterday – she had been looking forward to it for ages (I think that when she started counting down the days there were almost 100 to go!).
