Eating in, inspired by eating out
inspired by 26 Grains, Stoney Street It may still look like a bit of a building site, but I can finally cook in our kitchen again! I’ve spent the best part of a month dreaming of the first dishes I would cook, the elaborate menus…
inspired by Berenjak It’s now over three weeks since I’ve cooked in my kitchen. Simply because at the moment I have no kitchen. Unless you count a microwave and a toaster balanced on a rickety table in the garage. Which I don’t. But as building…
inspired by Cornerstone Sometimes things aren’t always as they seem. It’s amazing the power that a decent photo has to deceive or gloss over the truth. A basic principle that governs all social media. The photographs of our lives that we put out for the…

inspired by Fallow As I spent yesterday flicking through my (now full) notebook of recipes, lists of restaurants and shopping lists, it’s got me thinking about the beginning of lockdown. Seems like a lifetime ago doesn’t it? I’m thinking about the 16th March. The day…
