Do you know what today is? It's World Nutella Day! Let's all cheer and get hopped up on sugar and palm oil! Wait, that isn't right... is it? Please indulge me for a moment as we hop into the time-machine -- help yourself to a cup of tea or a shot of bourbon and remember to buckle your seatbelt as we flash-back to my original anti-Nutella post three years ago: ... On the World Nutella Day site the founders claim: Nutella is more than just a “chocolaty hazelnut spread,” it is a way of … [Read more...]
Good Eats Holiday Gift Guide 2014
Next up in my 2014 Holiday Gift Guide series… edible gifts for the gourmet. Food should never be overlooked as the perfect gift, especially when it's as good as the items here. True, it doesn't quite have the longevity of a cake stand or a cutting board but good food, shared between friends, is the stuff memories are made of. Of course you can always pair food with another complimentary present too. ** These are some of my favourite edible treats. Most are locally made by small producers … [Read more...]
Macadamia & Coconut Choc-Cherry Truffle Bites
Truffle bite? What's a truffle bite? Things are truffles or bites, right? And truffles are rarely more than a bite anyway so calling something a truffle bite is like calling a cat a kitty cat or saying something is an end result or even better (worse?) declaring that you're going to an ATM machine. I'll wait while you google what ATM stands for, swear to never again use the phrase "mix together", and re-evaluate the sheer scale of redundancies in everyday life... Ok, so maybe a truffle … [Read more...]
In My Kitchen: December 2014
It’s once again time for In My Kitchen and as per usual this is a collection of things from the past month — as seen over on Instagram — in loosely interpreted categories and no particular order. As always I’m linking up with Celia for IMK. ------ Kitchen Shenanigans It has been a bit of a slow month (at least compared to the usual influx of stuff that seems to pass through) but there has certainly been pumpkin, lots and lots of roasted pumpkin. Mainly for pie, and then mini-pies, and … [Read more...]
In My Kitchen: November 2014
It’s once again time for In My Kitchen and as per usual this is a collection of things from the past month — as seen over on Instagram — in loosely interpreted categories and no particular order. As always I’m linking up with Celia for IMK. ------ Kitchen Shenanigans Keeping myself amused with stripy kitchen string while brownies cool enough for their Christmas shoot... ------ All the green things from the crisper (parsley/coriander/mint/kale/rocket/spinach), end of the road … [Read more...]
Zebra-Striped Choc-Orange Vegan Cheesecake
I was going to let Halloween pass by this year with nary a mention. Then the other day, after talking to a girlfriend about her over-the-top ghoulish creation, I was bitten by the trick-or-treat bug. So much as I love the crazy Halloween recipes that float across the interwebz this time of year I find myself sticking with a slightly tamer theme -- if you've been here a while you may recognise the colour combo from my Halloween Ice Cream Bars with Chocolate & Green Goo Magic Shell -- … [Read more...]
In My Kitchen: October 2014
It’s once again time for In My Kitchen and as per usual this is a collection of things from the past month — as seen over on Instagram — in loosely interpreted categories and no particular order. As always I’m linking up with Celia for IMK. ------ Kitchen Shenanigans I've been a bit tied up with work lately (hence it being quiet on the blog front) and the other day I finished one of the bigger projects. At least the props have been earning their keep! There wasn't a single overhead shot in … [Read more...]
