It was a whopping 22°C in London yesterday. That’s 72°F for y’all on the other side of the pond. Whatever you want to call it, it’s froyo weather and so I waddled (because I don’t walk fast right now) down to Yog on Charlotte Street and got myself a serve of natural frozen yoghurt with Read More →

So this is how the story goes: I am always slow in following trends. It doesn’t matter if the trend is in fashion, food or the latest fandangle gadgets (note: I am yet to own my first iPhone, let alone an iPhone version 4 meaning it’s been around for at least 4 years, and the Read More →

Ok, so we’ve established that I am severely behind the trend and yes, I’ll even admit that I still haven’t been to either Polpo or Polpetto (I should be ashamed, no?) but when I laid eyes on this one blog which talked about Spuntino’s peanut butter & jelly ice cream sandwich, I knew it had my Read More →

There were a couple of weeks in March when I was recovering from surgery but hadn’t started working yet that I would comfortably label The Most Boring Weeks Of My Life.

Sometimes we have to be grateful for the big things in life. Like winning a holiday. Sometimes we have to be grateful for the small things in life. Like being able to see, smell, touch, talk… just being. Sometimes, we have to be grateful for the things we often aren’t grateful for. Like our parents. Read More →

baked vanilla cheesecake with lemon curd I know I haven’t blogged for a week… and I know that’s like a millenia for me, but y’all gotta understand, I’ve been busy. I figured I’d better post something though because I received an email from a reader yesterday saying that the last time I gave you guys Read More →

It’s Monday and I am officially back in London. “Officially” because “unofficially” I arrived about this time yesterday but was so exhausted and having been away two months (but mainly because my brain was mush from exhaustion), everything felt surreal and I didn’t feel as though I was really back. But today is Monday, a Read More →
