Back in April I decided to go veggie for the month as a bit of a challenge. The transition was made easier as I had been living with Thomas for six months. Thomas is vegetarian, and possibly the best cook I know, although he won’t like me saying this. Therefore, at home I was already…

My Summer So Far: The Lake District, Camping, Hebden Bridge & Alas, Warm Weather!
When we get the weather, the UK really is a beautiful country to live in and travel around. It still amazes me how there’s so many people who haven’t seen much of their own country. I admit we can’t always be reliant on good weather, but don’t let that stop you getting out there and…
72 Hours in Scandinavia: Denmark & Sweden
At the end of March I headed over to Scandinavia for a long weekend with my friend Sofyanah. Sweden had been on my list to visit for a while, and it was a perfect opportunity to catch up with my friend Philippa and her family, who moved over there a few years ago. Copenhagen, Denmark:…

A Lancashire Road Trip, Another Supper Club & Summer Plans

I’ll be splitting this update over two separate blogs. Keep posted for ’72 Hours in Scandinavia’……coming soon! A Lancashire Road…
My Summer Part 2: My Lovely Dad, Leeds Black Music Festival, New Foods, & Another Supper Club
Summer has now long gone and so much has happened since my last update in early August, some good, some not so good. My Lovely Dad: I mentioned in my last blog that my dad wasn’t well, so unwell that he was unable to attend my little sisters wedding in July. Not long after, we…
My summer so far: Dublin, Northern Ireland, First Tattoo, Hen Doo, Wedding and Next Supper Club Confirmed!
Apologies for the lack of blogs over the past 2 months, it’s been a somewhat hectic summer so far…… After my sister Liz’s breast cancer diagnosis back in May, it’s been ‘all hands to the pump’ for the family, supporting her, her husband and two small children as much as we can. She’s doing amazingly…
My ‘Around the world’ Supper Club @ The Union, Leeds
I was much more apprehensive leading up to hosting my second supper club than I was for my first one. There were logical reasons behind this though. Firstly, there were more people coming along to this one who I didn’t know, and secondly, I had someone reviewing it! The evening this time was being held…
My Masterchef Audition Experience!
I didn’t for a second think I would hear anything back after sending off my application form to be on the TV series Masterchef (UK). My ex-housemate Angela, who got me addicted to the show, sent another application form to me insisting I applied. I’ve never had any aspirations to be on TV but I…
