Brazil nut, cacao + orange granola
I have a major cookbook addiction, but you all know that already aye? At one point a few years back, I couldn’t leave the house without returning a cookbook or two heavier. While the addiction is somewhat under control at the moment (ahem, cough, cough), I have totally lost count of how many I own. […]
preserved lemons recipe
Our lemon tree has gone completely mental this year and every morning over the past month or so, we’ve been greeted with a bagful of plump, heavy juice bombs which have dropped from the tree overnight.

homemade lemon thyme extract recipe
I usually only post a recipe on here if I know 100% that it works. But today is the day I’m gonna break my own rules and share a little experiment with you all. See I figure if I wait the 2-3 months until this baby is ready and then post the recipe, you’ll all […]
