We moved into our new flat just before Christmas last year, and more than anything I was mostly excited about finally having some outdoor space to grow some veggies, herbs and flowers come spring. Even more than having a brand new kitchen, and a place of our own! (well maybe not exactly, but I […]

  Where I come from in the south of France (south of Toulouse in the Ariege region) we live very close to the mountains (Pyrenees) and we’re surrounded by beautiful medieval towns. Seriously, there’s one at every corner, with beautiful churches, town squares, castles.. they’re everywhere. One of them being Mirepoix! One of my best friends […]

  This is a meal I have been making over and over again at the moment. Possibly because I have been missing India lately, but also because dahl is a real hug from the inside. It’s so simple to make, so delicious, so nutritious, you can make a big batch of it, take it to […]

  I still haven’t quite caught you up with our last trip to France.. now here we are a month later as we’re about to prepare to fly over there once again for the second time this summer! We’re leaving on Saturday, and I couldn’t be more excited. But you know, better late than never? […]

  I thought I’d start documenting my daily meals on Insta Story a few weeks ago.. I try and show you (most days!) what I eat in a day – but the problem is that Insta Stories disappear within 24hours, and I don’t always get to give you as much detail as possible on a […]

OK – so this has to be my favorite restaurant in London – for a while I just wanted to keep it for myself. But we went again last Friday for our weekly date night, and my tastebuds were seriously shaken, I just couldn’t keep the secret anymore!  I discovered it a little while ago one […]

Remember Sunday’s post? I was telling you how this sunny morning started, Fiz (the dog) demanding you throw all the sticks. Tummy full of croissants and tea, I sat at the big wooden table under the fig tree with Bee chatting away while dealing with a few emails here and there. Mum & Lizzie had spotted […]

Jump ahead a week and I’m back in London, going through all the photos stinging with nostalgia (already) the temperatures have dropped a good 10 degrees since I flew over the Channel. A cocktail of bad wifi and the absence of any editing tools on my laptop I couldn’t post anything up until now! I […]

Yesterday morning I left rainy London with a suitcase full of bikinis and dresses and flew off to the South of France to visit my parents and sister for a week. They greeted me at the airport with Hector (our chocolate lab) who was very excited to see me, but now that I think about […]

The perfect recipe for a rainy day, because surely warm toasted banana bread oozing butter is all you need in life. Am I right? I used this recipe, added pecans, added dark chocolate, took the bourbon out (not because I was against the idea, I’m just not the kind to stock the stuff) and used […]
