Our October favourites | a birthday, a book signing, and Halloween

by StaceyUpdated on November 16, 2017November 17, 2017

I really can’t believe it’s halfway through November already; it’ll be December before we know it! And then in the next monthly update I can mention the C word 😉 It seems ages since I wrote our September favourites. Before writing this post I was thinking that we didn’t really do much in October; but looking back through photos for our favourites, I realised we actually did have quite a busy month! At the beginning of October it was my birthday, and I had a multi author signing that I attended the day after. Then at the end of the …

The Olive Oil Buyers Guide | with Jamie’s Italian

by StaceyUpdated on November 13, 2017November 14, 2017

Many people I know love using olive oil for dipping bread, perhaps with a bit of balsamic vinegar to make it sweeter. Myself, I’m not so keen unless it’s a flavoured one; I am partial to a chilli one. I’ve been known to have some bread and oil samples at the supermarket – I can’t help myself with a freebie. 😉 If it came as part of a meal in a restaurant I would have it; but I wouldn’t normally buy it just for that purpose at home. I do always have some in my cupboard for cooking with from …

Fruit filled choc topped flapjack | Recipe

If I had to tell you one of my favourite traybakes to both make and eat, it would be flapjack. It’s so easy to put together; it’s just the waiting for it to bake and cool that’s the hard bit! Other than eating the end product, scraping out the syrupy pan is my second favourite part. And don’t forget the smell. Oh who am I kidding – I love it all.

September Degustabox | Subscription Box Review

by StaceyUpdated on October 23, 2017October 24, 2017

As always I was looking forward to seeing what was inside the September Degustabox. There was a good mix of items; from sweet to savoury, food & drink, some brands I’d heard of and some I’d not. I don’t think there was anything in this one that I didn’t like, and the boys even enjoyed more of it than usual too. Enjoy 10 to 15 surprise products, many are completely new to the market! Receive your Degustabox every month filled with goodies. All for much less than you would pay in the shops! So what was inside the September Degustabox?

Dessert pizza – two ways! | Recipe

by Stacey October 16, 2017October 16, 2017

This is only the second week that I’ve managed to join in with the Great Bloggers Bake Off this year; the last time was for caramel week. I actually had time this week, and seeing that there was a completely new category added to the mix, I thought I’d give it a go. I’d only heard of two of the three bakes this week; pizza of course, and cannoli. I had literally no idea what sfogliatelli was though… I was surprised that pizza was the technical, but after attempting it myself I can see why! I’ve made my own pizzas before so …
