Sweet breakfast treats – french toast donut style
I love donuts. I love toast. I love french toast – provided there’s enough cinnamon involved. So putting all 3 together to make a french toast in a donut style (a la Nigella with a cinnamon twist) is a brilliant…
Eating japanese food at Zushi Banbury
Considering I’m on a diet, I seem to have eaten out quite a lot recently. Not quite on the diet plan, but it is teaching me to take things easy. I am missing the treat myself to 3 courses on…
Meeting the reception mums – eating out at The Castle Edgehill
N’s now done 2 terms at school (or 1 term in old school language). So far it all seems to be going well for him and he’s made the transition well. Being a reception mum is different to nursery though. At…

I love cake. I have a few favourites, chocolate, carrot, banana, lemon, victoria sponge…oh ok, I just like most cakes really. Being a farmer’s wife, I should really be able to bake. I can and do on occasion, although not…
A New You Plan diet for a new me?
*AD – gifted for review I’ve been planning to get back to my healthier eating and lifestyle ways for a couple of years now. Each time I’ve started and managed to lose a mere fraction of what I need to…
