Italian Recipes
My Special Toad in the Hole How about this! I promised you I would take a picture of my Special Toad in the Hole, if I thought it looked good enough, and here it is. It tasted fantastic and even Erik agreed with me. Not bad for someone with a wonky hand at the moment. […]
Autumnal Recipes – Part Two Enough of kitchens for now – back to Autumnal Recipes – Part Two. As the nights are now drawing in earlier on the East Coast of Yorkshire, and the log burner is lit about 4.45pm to warm up our lounge, I feel the need for more comfort food. There is […]
Amazing Asparagus & Recipes Part 2 For Part 2 of Amazing Asparagus & Recipes, I have chosen two of my favourite new recipes from Delicious magazine. The Asparagus season in the UK hasn’t that much longer to go, so I am determined to make the most of this amazing vegetable before it tips over into […]
Fun Food Recipes for a Freezing February. Looking out of my Office window, (well, spare bedroom window really), the sky is the greyest of greys, the trees are even all grey, and to warm me up I’ve been thinking of fun food recipes for a freezing February.

This Bucatini with Sausage recipe is my variation of an Italian family […]
Bruschetta Recipe This Bruschetta Recipe is one of my nicest things to eat for lunch. So fresh, so crunchy and so Italian. This picture of freshly made Bruschetta was just about to be demolished by Erik and myself the other day for lunch. Like most of the UK these last few weeks, our weather here, […]
Pumpkin Recipes – Risotto Well, it’s that time of year again. The fields around East Yorkshire have been denuded of their huge 0range globes, and the shops are now overflowing with Pumpkins. Erik has got into ‘Pumpkin Mode’ – it must be his American heritage that hankers every October for Pumpkin Pie. Every year we […]
I promised more recipes for Artichokes, well, here they are. These are for the Globe Artichokes, not the Jerusalem ones, which will come later. My little Artichoke plants are looking good, growing well in their peat pots, and will be planted out when big enough and the weather is warmer. But that gives me loads of […]
