MY DARLING LEMON THYME

Mango, coconut + pineapple popsicle recipe

We seem to have homemade popsicles (aka icy-poles, paletas or ice-blocks…) in our freezer nearly all year round. Often they’re just made from smoothie leftovers when I’ve made too much. Other times I blend whatever seasonal fruits we have at hand with coconut milk or if I’m feeling a little fancy, I layer them up […]

Spicy tofu noodles (gluten-free + vegan) + exciting news!

And just like that, the summer holidays are over. The kids are back at school, the house is quiet, the dishes are done and I have a spare moment to myself to gather my thoughts and write up this surprisingly delicious recipe.

A holiday would be perfect, but alas, not on the cards anytime soon. So to sooth that itch I’ve instead been reading food-based novels. The latest (which I borrowed from my local […]

lemon-roasted asparagus + green bean salad with smoked paprika dressing

Self-doubt’s a pain in the arse, but it’s something most of us deal with in greater or lesser degrees, every damn day. It’s that demon which renders me useless on occasion and is something that I feel we all need to be more open and honest about. See, some people suffer in silence, thinking they […]
