Fast forwarding to the week before my operation and I and my mum are in Dubai trying to relax. I had a massive gap between my physics exam to my maths exam, so don’t worry I didn’t miss anything! We spent this week relaxing to the fullest; I don’t think I’ve ever been so relaxed. On […]

Portobello Mushrooms

October 6, 2016.Reading time 2 minutes.

A great, quick and low cost vegetarian mid- week supper. You could well have lots of the ingredients already in the fridge and any left overs could be roughly chopped and run through a pasta for the next day. We often just brown some more chopped garlic and fresh chilli in olive oil, then throw […]

This week was botanical week on The Great British Bake Off so we decided to get creative and came up with this ice cream. In the garden, we had the last of the lavender flowers as September has been warm and sunny so it seemed like a good idea to try and incorporate these into […]
