It really is hard to believe that we are nearly a month into spring. The last two days have been cold and very wet and my son tweeted this morning that there had been snow in Lincoln! It got me thinking about a magical family trip to Wells-next-the-sea during the Easter holidays (13 years ago…

Read MoreBlackcurrant and blueberry jam therapy
Life has been very hectic over the past few weeks to say the least ! Work has been manic and we have my mother in law Dora living with us as she is very frail and her previous living situation became intolerable. She was doing really well until a couple of weeks ago when she suffered another…
Read MoreRainy Summer Sunday – so let’s make lime and coconut cake!
It’s a summer Sunday washout! It’s cold and it’s pouring with rain which has scuppered my plans for some weekend gardening. Instead I’ve been pottering the kitchen, listening to Cerys at Womad and making this ridiculously simple, but delicious cake.
