About
I crave food, I cook it and then I attempt to take pictures of it before eating it.
After some encouragement I decided to create a recipe blog to share with you, I hope you enjoy it. I will keep my recipes up to date as much as possible, sign up to the mailing list so you don't miss new posts.
I've always been passionate about experimenting in the kitchen, I think this comes from watching my amazing dad create delicious food, effortlessly and also I am a very fussy eater; so having to work around my likes dislikes and building up my palette.
I tend to stay away from cookbooks and either create my own recipes or recreate a meal that I like or have seen, using a dash of hope and plenty of seasoning. I rarely use exact measurements, so creating this blog has really tested me but has also been fun too. I tend to add a pinch of this and a pinch of that; as my cooking style is all about feeling the flavours and the vibe of your cooking, the end result does not have to be perfect, it just has to taste good and for you to be proud of your creation.

Cooking is my happy place! My older sister myself and my siblings 'what we do to switch off?' and instantly I answered 'cooking'. Being a neurospicy with ADHD means that every day is full of some kind of struggle; procrastination, executive dysfunction, sleep deprivation and social anxiety to name just a few but the one thing that motivates me and gives me a place to focus my mind and relax is cooking. So in short, yes cooking helps me 'switch off' from the world.
​
My creative side doesn't stop at cooking though. I love a bit of DIY and I cannot wait to get my hands on an allotment soon, I miss having a garden and growing my own herbs and veg. But the fun doesn't end there, I enjoy creating various digital products, as well as homemade homewares. I hope you enjoy exploring my shop as much as my recipes.
​
I always have music playing whilst I'm cooking, I could think of nothing worse than cooking in silence. I love to have a dance and a karaoke session, when my hands are free of sharp tools, and the music I listen to inspires my creativity and mood. Below are a couple of my Spotify playlists, so you can cook along to some of my favourite songs. I warn you now, you will feel like you are at carnival or a fete. But if you're feeling like having a chilled out cooking session, I've got you covered too!
