Chocolate Scrabble Biscuits
Do you play Scrabble? My husband and I have been playing for over 20 years. Sometimes cards and sometimes Scrabble. The score sheets are so old that we don’t bother anymore. In fact now the challenge is less about points but rather about the best word. Last Christmas I got some lovely Scrabble biscuit cutters. […]
Back to Normality with a Marshmallow Parkin
It’s been nearly two months now since our cafe closed. I stopped baking for a while. I stopped blogging for a while too. Truth be told there was just too much still going on closing up accounts, getting rid of stock and equipment. All that alongside a full time job and overseas travel. Weekends just […]

I was inspired to keep them whole by this recipe by Emma at The Food Gatherer. I then remembered seeing something similar in one of Diana Henry‘s […]
Hazelnut Pie Or Hazelnut Tart?
It’s Bonfire Weekend in the UK. It’s a pretty grim one to be honest. As I’m writing this post I’m snuggled in my fleece pyjamas and woolen socks with the heating on full but still feeling cold looking out at the rain. No matter. It is Bonfire Weekend and we shall celebrate in wellies and waterproofs […]
Blackberry Crumble Tart
I just popped one of these in the oven and so I thought I’d write the recipe up while I still have the luscious smells wafting up from the kitchen and before I need to run downstairs and make custard for the girls. The blackberries are just about from the allotment. My new allotment neighbour […]
