Morph gingerbread biscuits

Morph gingerbread biscuits

Posted on August 27, 2023August 27, 2023 by jenny

We’ve mentioned a few times now that we really enjoyed visiting Morph’s Epic Art Adventure London trail. Since the trail started we’ve had a couple of trips into London to see it but unfortunately didn’t manage to tick off all the sculptures. The app was really handy keeping tabs of all the sculptures and we…

School dinner cake recipe

Posted on March 13, 2021March 14, 2021 by jenny

I made pretty poor food choices when I was younger although it clearly didn’t do me any harm. In fact I don’t remember there much being many healthy choices, certainly not…

Mulled wine chocolate brownie recipe

Posted on January 21, 2021 by jenny

Is anyone else still enjoying Christmas food? We have so many Christmas chocolates, treats and bottles of mulled wine. It was a bit strange drinking mulled wine in January but I don’t see why it should only be drunk at Christmas. I set a little mulled wine aside to make a batch of mulled wine…

Easy Apple and mincemeat crumble

Posted on November 29, 2020 by jenny

One of my favourite things about Christmas is the food. Baking is one of my favourite things and I enjoy trying festive dishes. We all enjoy mincepies but last year we were left with a lot of mincemeat. We used some in Mincemeat Palmiers which were lovely and simple to bake and tasted delicious, as…

A few weeks ago I published my Gingerbread Gift Guide which was so much fun to put together. It gave me the chance to pick up lots of different gingerbread kits which I’m really enjoying trying out and sharing with you.
