Peanut butter cookies

This recipe comes from Port and Finn and for me anything that uses a jar of peanut butter as the base is a definite winner. I'm technically meant to be gluten free, not that you'd know from my pasta intake, but anything without flour in is only a bonus.

Street Feast Dalston Yard

Street Feast Dalston is one of the best summer pop ups. 2 minutes from my flat, full of good food, drinks and free entry before 7pm it is a winning combination for me. The fact that BOBs Lobster has a stand, and that you can play competitions to win alcohol (buy one try and win another) further entices! Street food with a side of fun. 

Plonk Dalston

Crazy golf, crazy concept.

10 Things That Have Made Me Happy This Week

This week seems to have been ridiculously busy. I made a plan every evening and was exhausted by the end of the week. Am I the only one that actually likes heading straight home after work?! (Old before my time...). It was a good one though and here are a few of the things that made it...

Nutella cheesecake

I'm a big fan of desserts. Desserts that are easy to make are even better. This one is loosely based on a Nigella recipe and has fast become a dinner party staple. Who doesn't like Nutella and cheesecake? Surely together they are even better? Well there we go. Supper fabulous! 

Amazing eyes

I first discovered Gazelli this time last year when I was invited to a brand event at the Josh Woods atelier in Notting Hill where Gazelli have their main treatment rooms.

The Londoners Fish Tacos

If you're looking for a simple summer supper The Londoner's fish tacos are a perfect choice. Bring the beach to the table with fresh flavours, good quality ingredients and most importantly full tummies. Fish, guacamole, salsa yumminess. 

Think happy be happy

Magical moules

One of our favourite meals to cook in the flat is mussels. I've always loved them but until I moved to London last year had never cooked them. So Sarah and I experimented. And my gosh they are so easy to make. We recreate on a regular basis and it is now our go to simple weekend supper when we're both home. 

10 Things That Have Made Me Happy This Week

You know those weeks that are just 'those' weeks? Everything is good, happy and somehow there are no stresses. This was one of them and these are the 10 things that have made me happy this week… 

Banana and Nutella bread

This is good. Really really good. Moist, filling and (almost!!) healthy. Banana bread with a twist. A gooey nutella centre, good crust and it even looks pretty. Simple to make, not too many ingredients and perfect for afternoon snacking. The hardest part is waiting the hour that it takes to cook! 

Kilner lemon water love

On a sunny Saturday morning there really is nothing better than a lazy start, a trip to the market for some fresh seasonal veggies and some chill out time, pottering around the house, local shops and knowing that the whole day stretches out ahead of you, to fill exactly as you please.
