Medieval fruit parcels for Richard III (Rysschews of Fruit)

More, Pastry, Snacks, Tarts and Pies Comments Off on Medieval fruit parcels for Richard III (Rysschews of Fruit)

Leicester is in a state of high excitement; practically a frenzy. The last time this happened was when Sam Bailey won the X Factor. This time it’s an altogether more regal affair. Richard III is being properly buried. The correct name for this is ‘reinterment,’ but no one knows how to say that or indeed […]

Fluffy sweet potato pancakes

Sides, Snacks, Veggie 2 Replies

Pancake day is looming. So I thought I’d offer you up something just a little different. I know you like your wafer thin crepes with sugar, lemon, Nutella, jam, caramel, bananas etc, but I wanted to champion the savoury pancake.

Banana berry smoothie

Breakfast, Kids, More, Snacks, Veggie Comments Off on Banana berry smoothie

What’s that saying? Breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dine like a pauper.

I have had to become pretty good at keeping secrets of late. It was about this time last year I received an email that changed just about everything. It simply said ‘CALL ME ASAP’ from my agent. Now she’s not the type to over excite me for no reason; she knows that rarely ends well. […]
