‘I wandered lonely as a cloud That floats on high o'er vales and hills, When all at once I saw a crowd, A host, of golden daffodils; Beside the lake, beneath the trees, Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.’ I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud, by William Wordsworth There's that Spring feeling There’s just something […]
When it comes to my morning routine, I’m a creature of habit. In the cold winter months, I’ll reliably be found wrapped up on the balcony with a slice of marmite peanut butter toast and a large mug of coffee. To my mind, there was really nothing better. That is, until baked oats came along. […]
My fondest and earliest memories are the ones spent at my Grandma and Grandad’s house (known for years by me and my brother as “Grandma and Grandad with the chinchillas”, while my others were known as “Grandma and Grandad with the allotments”).
Many consider sprouts to be the Marmite of seasonal delicacies- you either love them or hate them. Well, it’s tough at the top. You won’t get there without collecting a few haters. We couldn’t love sprouts more. Not only are they delicious, but they’re also filled with nutrients to get you through the winter months. […]
I've been vegan for 6 years now- around a quarter of my life. I've rolled my eyes at every vegan joke (aside from the ones I make, which are, of course, hilarious), politely declined endless bacon butties and seen an old friend try to eat a chicken leg behind a teatowel because she didn't want […]
Taking down the Christmas Tree can fill you with sadness as the twinkly lights are put away for another year. Yet it doesn't have to be like this. Your Christmas Tree can keep giving to you all year round.
It's long been known that Spiced Red Cabbage is secretly Rudolph's favourite food, but did you know that he prefers it with a subtle hint of juniper? He also loves how the fruity sharpness that comes with pickling cut's so beautifully through your Christmas Dinner. Not to mention that this simple recipe can be done well in advance, saving loads of time and effort on the big day.
It’s Christmas Eve. Somewhere in the North Pole a little boy wearing blue striped pajamas, an old red dressing gown and threadbare slippers blinks through the blizzard. He knows that a little way yonder he will find a cozy cottage, a herd of magical reindeer and a warming cup of mulled apple juice (Father Christmas is a member of the Kitchen Table Revolution after all).
For me, the most important thing about Christmas is all the glorious grub. From the Christmas Day feast and all those tremendous trimmings, to Boxing day Breakfast, It’s the one time of year when I really get to indulge in loads of fabulous food. I don’t like to scrimp on either quality or quantity, so inevitably there are plenty of leftovers which would be an absolute crime to waste.
We get it- 2021’s been a tough one and no one’s been at their best. Maybe you’ve given an inconsiderate motorist an earful or farted and blamed the dog. Nobody’s perfect. Now we’re not saying you’re on the bad list, but it never hurts to bump your way up to the top. Santa’s gift to […]
