Should You Study Food Photography?
Are food photography workshops really worth the time, effort and investment? In this blog post I share my honest opinion about who should consider them and who should steer well clear!
What’s better than breakfast? A long, lazy, delicious vegan brunch!

Read MoreIt’s been a minute since I shared a vegan recipe on the blog, but when fellow UK based photographer and author Donna Crous published her new cookbook, A Healthier Family For Life and asked me to host a giveaway to celebrate its imminent release in the USA and Canada, I thought, it was the perfect excuse to finally do so again! And gosh, I had SO much fun creating (and eating) this recipe from her book. Moreover, I just know you’ll love browsing through and cooking from it too!

If you had to name a brand that creates gorgeous, stylist kitchen gadgets, what brand would come to mind? For me, without a speckle of a doubt, it would be KitchenAid!

Confession, I’ve never made jam before! I know, I’ve been a food blogger for soooo long, love seasonal, home-made vegan food, hence this confession is rather embarrassing. But, hear me out! I’m also a busy working mama and love quick and easy options; making my own jam seemed complicated, time consuming and fussy. As a result, I always turned to pre-made jams instead. I realised this was such a shame as we grow our own seasonal fruit.
So you can imagine my excitement when BALL® reached out as part of their “My Bake My Jam’ campaign, and asked me to try their FRESHTECH AUTOMATIC JAM AND JELLY MAKER. The machine, they promised, would turn jam and jelly making into child’s play. How could I say no to this fun opportunity?!?

Like so many of you, I too have been practicing social distancing, living in self isolation with my family and contributing as much as I can to the shared goal of flattening the curve!

They say that the way to a person’s heart is through their stomach and as someone who loves food, I couldn’t agree more. Going out for a romantic meal is lovely, but what really makes me feel special is when my other half cooks for me from scratch.
