Artificial Sweetener

“I remember at 4am, you rolled over to love me in your sleep. I remember at 5am you woke up and it was all a dream.” Luke. 17/07/2015 Her face had withered in the last week. As though the worry in the wind had beaten fragile creases into her smooth skin. She looks paler than […]

Is this the end of my childhood? Of course not.

Is this the end of my childhood? Of course not.

As a year 13 in a London 6th form college, this coming Friday I am expected to leave my school forever, this is one of the most frightening milestone moments of my life and I’m not quite sure what to do with it. Does this mean I’m a real adult? Like the ones you see

Peanut Butter & Chocolate Cupcakes

Peanut Butter & Chocolate Cupcakes

This is a new recipe I have recently tried out for a girly sleepover – they went down a treat and are a perfect wee thing for any sweet tooth you may know. They’re easy and fun to make as well. The cake sponge is a recipe from the one and only, Mary Berry, but the […]

‘El Rider’ – A Short(ish) Account

‘El Rider’ – A Short(ish) Account

A short account of one of the more eventful evenings of my family holiday:   Before we arrived at ‘El Rider’, we intended to go to a slightly more, uh, ‘normal’ place, where the staff were rude, but the food was amazing, as we found out on our first night in Prades (a town in […]

Before I start, I wasn’t sure which category I should be putting this in. It’s a post about food, but it isn’t a post about me making food. I’ve concluded that the ‘Personal’ category is most appropriate but that is mainly motivated by the fact that I’m low on ideas for my personal at the moment. […]

Raspberry and Coconut Biscuits – Vegan

Raspberry and Coconut Biscuits – Vegan

With the help of my friend who also has a nutrition based blog (link below) we have come up with the tasty and relatively healthy (compared to other more meat based biscuits) type of biscuit. Natalie – who runs the other blog, prefers the biscuits with raspberries, although I’m pretty sure that’s just because they […]

Nail Varnish

Nail Varnish

So recently I have developed a new hobby, this is partly due to my supposed freedom. No, I have not left school, I have however, recently finished my AS exams and as they all began and ended so close to the beginning of study I was left with more time than I could manage. It’s something […]

Fluffy Vanilla Cupcakes

Fluffy Vanilla Cupcakes

I made this for my friends birthday last year and it seemed to go down pretty well, also these cupcakes are so easy to make and great for when you have friends coming over or if you’re bored and fancy exploring the depths of your kitchen.

My (Ir)Rational Fear

My (Ir)Rational Fear

It’s about 11 o clock on a Saturday night. It’s dark (…obviously), cold – partly because I’m not wearing enough (it’s a teenage girl thing), and I’m tired. I’ve just got out of the station, leaving my friends behind (not in a cruel way – this wasn’t their stop, we were parting ways.) So essentially […]

Raspberry Billionaire Shortbread

Raspberry Billionaire Shortbread

This is my take on Millionaire Shortbread, it’s a little different from your average Millionaire Shortbread, for starters it uses a biscuit base rather than a shortbread base… which makes me realise that this title is slightly misleading, I’ll start thinking about new titles. Another twist is that my version uses raspberries in the chocolate […]
