MY DARLING LEMON THYME

roast eggplant, tomato and feta salad with pomegranate molasses dressing

So it’s been awhile since I’ve talked about our garden, or should I say pots? Moving house the week before Christmas means that we still haven’t found the time to do anything about making those new garden beds, to house all the transferred plants. But not too worry, most of them are doing okay where they […]

dairy-free chocolate sauce recipe

Strangely for Vegetarians, we don’t consume a whole lot of soy. We eat tofu around once a week and have a carton of soy milk hanging around for cups of tea, but more often than not the last little bit goes off before being consumed. I prefer to use fermented soy products like tempeh and […]

Bánh xèo, mango jelly and a thank you…

Also, it seems the Martha Goes Green girls got their wires crossed as I ended up receiving two calendars in the post, a few days apart! […]

If you’ve been a reader of this blog since it began, firstly, thank you! That sure is a whole lot of reading you have done over the past year and a half!
