Cooking, Travel & Eating Out on a Grain-Free, Gluten-Free & Refined Sugar-Free Diet
Last night was the inaugural Great Northern Pub Wine Tasting & Food Pairing Evening. We arrived at the pub to be welcomed with a glass of champagne and shown a list of the seven wines we were going to get a chance to taste that …
Tonight was a dinner out with Dan’s family and as his brother Chris is due to have his baby any day now (and his girlfriend Emma-obviously Chris isn’t having the baby), it was suggested that they stay near home and we meet them at a local restaurant. They …
This weekend, the Great Northern Pub was hosting a 3-day beer festival and despite not being a beer drinker myself, it was going to be a big party so we headed to St Albans to spend the afternoon there. We’d just had a lovely brunch …
Knowing how much of a fan Matilda is of the avocado Aussie Brunch (we travelled together in Australia earlier this year – and ate many brunches!) I picked Granger & Co for a Saturday Brunch Treat. I’d heard great things about the restaurant but never …
This month it was my turn to be treated to date night and Dan had planned a surprise evening for me – I prefer not to know where we’re going until the last minute, whereas he likes to pick where he goes! I guess he …

On a wet and miserable day in London, I had something to look forward to. Mum and my grandma were heading up to town for the day so I’d booked us into The Ivy Cafe in Marylebone for lunch. It would have to be …
Heading home for Father’s Day, the plan was for my brother and I to cook lunch for my dad – hopefully a BBQ, but in England you always need a backup plan in case the weather doesn’t cooperate. Luckily, the weather looked as if it …
This weekend saw Kerry’s Birthday BBQ, so Dan and I headed back to Essex to share in the celebrations. The weather wasn’t amazing but the rain held off so we were all outside in the garden. It was lovely to see Tom and Kerry’s new …
