Brandied Cherry Ice Cream
Recently while making a Black Forest Birthday Cake for my significant other I learned a few things.
Black Forest Cake
This week saw another birthday celebration in Elizabeth’s Kitchen. I wanted to make something a little extra special for my significant other
Camp Aite Breagh Chocolate Chip Cookies
Just imagine you are ten years old. You wake up in the morning and unzip your sleeping bag. The sun is streaming through the window and you can hear birds chirping outside.
Applique Flower Pillow Project
The school holidays started this week and the weather, especially this morning, has been dreadful. It’s been grey and dreary and this morning it was pouring down with rain. The children need entertained!
Breakfast Club – The High Fibre Round Up
Breakfast Club: Because breakfast should be more interesting than tea & toast or coffee & cereal!
Picnic/BBQ Bread
It’s that time of year again (if we’re really lucky!) – it’s picnic and barbecue time!
Canada Day Cake
July 1st is Canada Day; a perfect excuse to make a cake don’t you think?
Skoki Health Bread (and that time I was lassoed)
The burnt bread pictured above is the result of this month’s Random Recipes #29 food blogging challenge.
Potato Croquettes
My regular readers may recall me saying on a previous bread post that I’m in a bread phase right now. I’m making and enjoying all sorts of different breads recently and this often forms the main carbohydrate component of a meal.
Upcycled T-Shirt Lunchbag
My friend Julia over at Jaydee’s Ramblings is super clever. She makes all sorts of things out of recycled materials
Rustic French Bread
I go through bread phases. Sometimes I can’t get enough of it and then I go months before I make it again. I’m in a bread phase right now and I’m making (and blogging!) a lot of bread. Fresh bread straight from the oven can’t be beat.
Mint Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ice Cream
Following on from my confession in the Rhubarb Ripple Ice Cream with Hazelnut Oat Clusters blog post, my love of all things ice cream and cookie continues to be strong. But who says the cookies have to be cooked? Everyone loves cookie dough, no?
Shetland Flag-Topped Lemon & Seaweed Fairy Cakes
The 21st of June is Shetland Flag Day. Designed in 1969 to commemorate the 500th anniversary of the transfer of Shetland from Norway to Scotland the Shetland Flag was not officially recognised until 2005 by the heraldic authority in Scotland.
A Continental Market Visits Shetland
When I woke yesterday it was cold, windy, raining and dreary day in Shetland. Warming comfort food would be required for the evening meal, so I popped a shoulder of locally reared Shetland lamb into the slow cooker with some Moroccan style seasonings.
Traffic Light Jelly
I am still a child at heart. I really am, and as a child I was absolutely in love with jelly, especially red jelly. I was positively mad for it, if my mother is to be believed.
Double Chocolate & Fig Oatmeal Cookies
I have a terrible weakness for cookies… and cakes, and ice cream, and all things sweet… but mostly cookies.
Foil-baked Shetland Salmon with Orzo & Courgette Ribbons
In February of this year Vanesther at Bangers & Mash started a new food blogging challenge ‘Recipes for Life’ to help out a charity that operates just down the road from her.
Chocobanutty Ice Cream
Some years I discovered the magic that is banana ‘ice cream’.
Baladi (Wholemeal Pitta Bread)
The first time I was ever introduced to flatbreads was through an employer of mine back in Canada.
French Baguettes
I love fresh bread. I have fond childhood memories of visiting my friend’s house when her mother had her bread-baking days. She’d spend a whole day making the bread for the month and the table and oven would be filled with loaves and trays of rolls, glistening with the melted butter brushed over the top.
