MY DARLING LEMON THYME

spicy coconut noodle soup recipe

A little bit salty, a little bit spicy, a little bit sour and a little bit sweet. This is my idea of the perfect bowl of soup. Add in some slippery noodles and a tangle of Asian greens and I’m one happy lady. As I’ve mentioned before, soup is not something I cook all that […]

a few of my favourite things {may 2012}

I’ve never thought of myself as a politically minded person. All that talk just sounded like blah, blah, blah to me. It got put in the ‘too-hard-basket’ all too quickly. Surely I don’t need to get involved when others can do that? I don’t know if it was becoming a mother that made me suddenly […]

kids in the kitchen + gluten-free lemon coconut cupcakes recipe {guest post}

pumpkin tofu curry recipe

First there was a health scare or two, including a lovely spider bite just under my right eye, there was a sick child thrown into the mix somewhere there and lastly Kye’s 4th birthday […]

chewy carob bites recipe

I’ve got a serious sweet tooth. I don’t try and hide the fact. But rather than baking everyday or giving in to that bar of chocolate… again, I try feed my desire for the sweet stuff with natural cane sugar-free alternatives. Well, most of the time anyway. I find the best way to make healthier […]
