Cooking, Travel & Eating Out on a Grain-Free, Gluten-Free & Refined Sugar-Free Diet
It was a sunny Sunday morning so we decided to get outside. Dinner was going to be a BBQ at Dan’s brother’s house in Tufnell Park so we decided to head up that way and spend the day on Hampstead Heath. We packed a picnic …
So Dan doesn’t cook…or at least he doesn’t unless I force him to. I do all the cooking in the house, occasionally (and i mean VERY occasionally – maybe once every couple of months), he’ll play sous-chef which basically means stirring the pan occasionally and …
Wanting a lighter dinner tonight I decided to cook up some sea bass fillets for us. I then googled a few recipes to try to use up the mint I had in the fridge. Sea bass with pea purée seemed to come up quite often …
If you like A Day Trip to Malaga you should catch up on: Tarifa Day 1, Kitesurfing in Tarifa Day 2, Kiteboarding in Tarifa Day 3 Waking up this morning we had two choices. With a very late night flight to catch from Malaga this …
Catch up on more Kiteboarding in Tarifa – Tarifa Day 1, Tarifa Day 2, Tarifa Day 4 So…the second whisky was definitely not a good idea last night. I didn’t feel quite so fresh waking up today but Dan was excited as the wind today …
Catch up with more Kitesurfing in Tarifa – Tarifa Day 1, Tarifa Day 3, Tarifa Day 4 Waking up in our beautiful hotel the next morning to blue skies is always an amazing feeling. It’s even better when you know you have a full day …
For more about my Weekend in Tarifa see Tarifa Day 2, Tarifa Day 3, and Tarifa Day 4 I’m not sure I’ve got the hang of this blogging idea yet! I went away for the most amazing weekend in Tarifa in the South of Spain and …
So I should probably start this post with a disclaimer. My boyfriend, Dan, co-owns this pub, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to let him off lightly! All opinions are my own and this is an honest account of Dinner at the Great Northern Pub …
So what do I eat as my Daily Diet – I eat what makes me feel good and I don’t adhere to one specific diet. I take bits and pieces from many of the diets out there and adapt them to my own needs. You …
After months of planning to write a blog, I’ve only finally gone and started it! Having followed so many ‘healthy lifestyle’ blogs and pouring over Pinterest recipes daily it’s finally time to collate all my findings and knowledge in one place. It’s something I’ve always …
30-something and living in London, sitting at my desk, dreaming of travelling to far-flung places is how I spend most of my days – when I’m not thinking about what I’m going to eat and drink next!
I love food, wine, friends and seeing new places – I hate the cold and my happy place is anywhere where the sun is shining and I can be wearing flip-flops. Diagnosed with an autoimmune condition a few years ago (Systemic Lupus Erythamatosus – SLE) I realised that my body reacts badly to grains, starches and sugar and so I love to eat healthily and create healthier versions of some of my old favourites (think pizza/pasta/bread – I was a serious carb monster). Strictly self-taught I love playing around in the kitchen, seeing what new ideas I can come up with as well as trying recipes from the multitude of cookbooks on my kitchen shelf. Pescatarian for 16 years, I recently introduced meat back into my diet so I’m slowly learning how to cook all over again. I’ve always been interested in wine and recently I’ve done a WSET wine course so good food and good wine are huge passions of mine. Eating out is one of my favourite things to do so I hope to be able to review some restaurants on this blog.
