After my last attempt at making Yuye drink a smoothie containing oatmeal, I made a second attempt using raspberries. Again, he said it was tasty but I’m not too sure I’ve changed his opinion about oats just yet. Raspberries make this smoothie more refreshing and fruity. It almost reminds me of summer… It’s been getting […]…
I’ve always loved the classic BLT (that’s bacon, lettuce and tomato) sandwiches, even if they can be a little boring. There’s something special about that combination of slightly fatty but so delicious bacon and the freshness of the lettuce and tomato that makes this a favourite for many people. But of course, doesn’t matter how […]…
Oats. According to Wikipedia “The oat…is a species of cereal grain grown for its seed…While oats are suitable for human consumption as oatmeal and rolled oats, one of the most common uses is as livestock feed.” Livestock feed.

This beautiful weather makes me feel like I should be eating healthier and getting up earlier in the mornings. Something I haven’t done for quite some time. It came at a great time too as Dairy Farmers Thick & Creamy […]…
I hope you all had a great Easter because I did. We were finally able to take a day off together and in good time too as it was Yuye’s birthday last Thursday. Time really flies when you’re busy. It feels like just yesterday when Yuye and I started this liquor shop and it’s now […]…
I’m sure like many of you, I am addicted to reading food magazines. I just can’t go past those delicious and beautifully styled photography and trust worthy recipes that also give me insight into seasonal ingredients and provide endless inspiration for new dishes to make.…
I’ve been naughty lately. To be specific, I’ve been spending a lot. On what? Food photography related items of course.
