The Last Bite

Hey Friends! Yes it is me, dropping into your inboxes ON schedule, must be shocking at this point, I know. Truth be told, I have been feeling utterly terrible at how inconsistent I have been over here so here is to attempt 1788549 at showing up regularly, as promised. I honestly thought I would be one of those women who would plough through pregnancy without it affecting me in any way.

Hey Friends! I hope you are well and having a lovely start to your week?

Oh I know. I have been shocking. Nay, I have been woeful. NOPE. I have been utterly sh*t at keeping on top of the newsy for a while and honestly, I have zero excuses. None. Nada. And you know what, I’m not even going to try. What I would love to know is though is how everyone is doing it. Ya know, juggling life, commitments, work, family, relationships, whilst all still having their sh*t together, never running late and still having energy to dedicate to having some form of fun. What’s the secret?

Hello friends! I KNOW it has been a long old time since I dropped into your inboxes with a delicious, carb laden newsy – my sincerest apologies for going awol but ya girl was off working a dream job for all of August (news which I will hopefully be able to share with you vvvv soon) which has meant I have spent approximately 2 hours in the kitchen in the past few weeks (those hours went into making today’s cherry pie). Have I missed being in the kitchen? Yup. Completely.

Hey Friends! I hope you are all having a lovely week so far? Thank the good, sweet heavens that the weather has decided to chill out ever so marginally this week. I’ve managed to turn my oven on a whole 2 times this week which is a vast improvement from last week’s big fat zero. I could yap on with the normal nonsense I always start the newsy with and completely evade the elephant in the room, but shall we address it? Shall we just deep dive into it?

Hey Friends! It’s heatwave week again in the UK but I am going to spare you my incessant whining over it and instead ramble over something equally as boring – yes folks, I am now in my DIY era. Who would have guessed it? Absolutely not me but then absolutely also me.

Hey Friends! I hope you have all had a lovely week so far? The sun has shined, the rain has rained, the weather is more up down than my mood swings, but it’s finally been a good week in the kitchen for me – which if I’m being honest, has felt like a long time coming. Things have been slightly intense and full on my side of late, which has seen me rarely venture into the kitchen to do any baking, so it has felt so nice to be back in the swing of things, cooking up a carb laden storm.

is the main bake of the day but we’ve also got my Cardamom (yup, a double feature), Lemon & Rose Loaf, Triple Choc Babka plus my Pistachio & White Choc No Churn Ice Cream completing the menu. Hey Friends! Okay let’s not beat around the bush shall we?

Hey Friends! I hope you are well and have had a lovely week so far? I am going to do my best to not rub any salt in any wounds and completely downplay the fact that I am reporting live and direct from a beach in the South of France. Which reading that back, sounds very la di da and like I am living the life of riley and in truth, I absolutely am.

Hey Friends! I hope you have all been keeping well? I am SO sorry for being so awol but surprise surprise, I have been tucked up in bed with what I can only describe as the worlds worst cold. It just won’t budge. I am on day 21690 of said cold (dramatics intended but in truth it’s been more like day 17) and it’s showing no signs of slowing down. I have never known fatigue quite like it.
