Chunky Seasonal Soup

By | October 28, 2014

I love home-made soup but always find it a bit of a faff, the big saucepan bubbling away is reminiscent a bit of school dinners too. But it’s well worth all faff-feelings and the big advantage is that I know exactly what’s going in there and – because I use whatever vegetables are in the […]

Baked Doughnuts #KidsInTheKitchen

By | August 26, 2014

This week’s recipe is one that I’ve seen in variation on so many blogs, but wanted to try it for ourselves. It took a while to track down the book I got the recipe from, but it was worth the wait, it’s packed full of speedy, but tasty looking recipes. I didn’t take any pictures […]

Banana and Choc Chip Loaf

By | July 22, 2014

One of my favourite childhood memories is baking with my Grandma, her sponge cakes and rock cakes were just lovely and if she’d run out of a particular ingredient, she’d put an alternative in and it would be fab! It’s something I want to experience more with T and D, especially as it’s a way […]
