Let’s talk about boundaries. It’s not easy at first to set boundaries for yourself, nor to then communicate them to other people. If you’re anything like me – a people pleaser – it can be really hard to say “no”, or to recognise when your boundaries have been crossed….
OMG guys. I found the ultimate chocolate chip cookies. They’re as big as your face and swimming in puddles of dark, rich chocolate. I can’t even explain to you how yummy they are! There are no chocolate chips in this recipe, just big fat chunks of dark chocolate and…
In August, my sister came back to London for a three week holiday. Living in Melbourne means that moments together are few and far between. Even Skyping can be difficult with an 11 hour time difference during parts of the year. That’s why, when she came back, I…

Who really needs an excuse to devour one of these sugary delights in one sitting?! There’s something quite nostalgic for me about doughnuts. Trips to Dunn’s Bakery in Crouch End as a child were a rare, but magical, treat. I vividly remember all the wonderful pastries and doughnuts set…
