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 styled a photo simply to rant, this should not surprise you too much. If you want the full story it's here on the original IG post, the important take out points are as follows: a cup of f-off weighs about 7 ounces and oh … [Read more...]
In My Kitchen: June 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'm currently a bit mad about this vegan butter I created on a whim. Three ingredients, so easy and so very good. I promise to share soon! ------ Spoils* from a paella class put on recently by Flavours of Spain. I … [Read more...]
In My Kitchen: May 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… Here we go, in loosely interpreted categories and no particular order, and as always I'm linking up with Celia for IMK, The Book Shelf I don't buy too many cookbooks these days (pretty much banned if they aren't gifted or won) but could not pass up this perfect condition used copy of Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day when I stumbled across it during my … [Read more...]
Green Herb Pesto & In My Kitchen: April 2014
If you haven't noticed I'm rather prolific over on Instagram... ahem, and therefore each time I pull together a list for In My Kitchen I simply scroll back through photos shared since the last post to work out what's been going on. There is a bit of a method to the madness, even if the resulting collections appear as slightly randomly grouped items all in one place. That said my life is slightly random when put all in one place, so it fits. Anyway, it's once again time to link up with Celia … [Read more...]
In My Kitchen: March 2014
I managed to only miss one month this time in linking up with Celia for an In My Kitchen post, yet it still seems to be a big one. Here it goes… Kitchen shenanigans A few years back I stopped buying tomatoes in tins. Tins are lined with BPA (bad chemical, google it if you want to know more) and the acid in tomatoes leaches it out worse than most foods. However no tins meant my cooking was limited to smooth sauce rather than lovely, textural crushed tomatoes (yeah, yeah, first world problems … [Read more...]
In My Kitchen: January 2014
Oh dear, it's again been quite a while since I've linked up with Celia for an In My Kitchen post so this is a big one. I may as well get started right away... ----- Kitchen shenanigans The original caption on this pic said it all: Getting back to basics - no computer or finances or real estate or real life. Just eggs, flour and bare hands kneading away the day. It was rolled and cut by hand because I couldn't be bothered with the pasta machine. Then topped with a simple pasta sauce … [Read more...]
In My Kitchen: September/October 2013
As good as it was to be off on another adventure it is so very good to be back in my own kitchen and eating veggies on a regular basis. I contemplated doing a collage of the food we ate while we were away but there is just too much of it... I'm not even kidding. Most of the fun things from our holiday ended up on Instagram so if you are looking to waste time, plan an eating holiday, or just make yourself hungry go for it. In the meantime here are a few things from before we left, things … [Read more...]
