More food, Piggies!

When I was a child, my Mummy had surgery a bit too close to Christmas for my Dad’s liking.  In order to play the supportive husband card and get as many brownie points as possible, he booked to take the four of us plus my maternal Grandmother and Grandfather out to dinner on Christmas Day. …

“Souq al Bahar 4 Fish”

I woke at 5am in a real huff.  I have no clue why.  Perhaps I had been having an enraging dream or something?  It’s highly possible as I am a compulsive dreamer.  Whatever the reason was though, there was no going back to sleep.  I went through Facebook, and Instagram, and caught up on my…

Cajun Turkey Pasta

Quite some time ago, I found a delicious recipe for Cajun chicken pasta that was Slimming World friendly. I made it and it was as tasty as it sounded. When thinking about what to cook for dinner last night this popped into my head. Do you think I could find that recipe anywhere? Nope. Not…

Pancake Day Yummy-ness!!

I wonder how many hundreds of blog posts have been published in the last 24hrs about pancakes?!  A fair few I would imagine.  I know my reader is full of them.  Why?  Because Pancake Day is amazing! Of course it’s actually called Shrove Tuesday and is the day before Lent, which starts on Ash Wednesday. The…

Vegetable Egg Bake

When The Boy and I first started dating, I decided that I would make a roasted vegetable egg bake.  We had Roast Beef for dinner the night before and there was a bunch of veggies left over.  This is one of my favourite things to do with leftover roasted veggies.  It turns out it was…

Dinner Win!!

I totally had an amazing win for dinner last night!  It was so good that The Boy declared it one of my best kitchen experiments, ever! After coping a mouthful of abuse from a dickhead on Facebook, I was a bit disheartened in my Slimming World cooking efforts.  I felt that I should be making…

Quick! Feed Me!

Do you ever have days where you think that you will pass out if you don’t eat quickly enough?  Or, where you’ve had such of a bitch of a day at work that you just want to eat and then collapse into bed and binge-watch something suitably trashy on Netflix?! If you don’t, you’re not…

Over Night Oat Pancakes – Version 2

Following my previous post about pancakes (here) which I wrote ages ago and forgot all about, I thought I would update you on my new discovery straight away… I couldn’t find where I had written down the ingredients and measurements to make pancakes the same way as before, and was not having my brightest day…

Over Night Oat Pancakes

Bit of a jumbled name there, but you get what I mean. Now, these pictures are not going to be pretty because I manage to eff up the actual cooking every time.  The one time I didn’t, I was so hungry I stuffed them in my face before I could even think “camera”! American Pancakes…

Burger Blow Out!!!

This past weekend saw my Dubai Anniversary.  I landed in this weird adult Disney World 6 years ago.  I don’t think I ever meant to stay so long, and have certainly spent a chunk of that time planning where to escape to next, but this is my home. (I also am far to lazy to…
