Cinnamon Bun Cake
Mmm, these cinnamon buns baking in the oven this week have scented the house with the irresistible sweet spicy warmth.

Mince Pie Streusel Bars
I’ve had a jar of homemade mincemeat hanging about, since last Christmas in fact, waiting to be used up.
Rose Creams
I had a sudden panic today – my last free day before Christmas and I was lacking a couple of presents.
Crudités with Ranch Style Dip (aka Creamy, Beany, Dreamy dip)
Here’s an antidote to all the rich, filling and wintery Christmas foods that have been on offer in excess over the last few days.

Winter Salad with Horseradish Dreessing
Winter may be comfort food time of year, but there is something about these dark, dismal and wintery months that makes me crave fresh, colourful and vibrant salads – a little something to per…
Blinis with Lentil Caviar
I had intended on posting this recipe before NYE, but what with Christmas and school holidays I just didn’t get round to it.
