Homemade Meatballs & Pasta Sauce

November 1, 2014October 27, 2014Food6 Comments

Fresh food is something that really appeals to me. Knowing that I have made something from scratch makes meals taste even better. Sometimes, I opt for the easy option; jarred sauces, cans and pre-cooked meals…but I am trying to make the most of using the ingredients we already have in our cupboards. This way I know exactly what has gone into my dish.

The following recipe is for easy homemade meatballs and pasta sauce. This isn’t out of a book or from a website. I just put a few ingredients together that we already had and it tasted lovely!

Beautiful Brownies

October 23, 2014October 25, 2014Food10 Comments

When we arrived in the USA (10 weeks ago!), I was getting frustrated with shopping for food, especially baking items. I had been confused in the baking aisle many times as I just couldn’t find what I wanted and then gave up 😦 I made some buns using a ready mix but they didn’t taste like my baking so I didn’t like them!

I came home and took to the internet to find the US equivalents to icing sugar, caster sugar and the flours that are used in baking. I felt much better once I had made a list and was ready to tackle the baking aisle again. Success…woohoo! I came home with ALL of the ingredients that I wanted.

The first thing I wanted to bake were these Peppermint frosted fudge brownies. The recipe appeared to be straight forward and it was! The brownie mixture came together perfectly and it was lovely to smell a homemade mixture. Yes, there is a difference between homemade and shop bought mixture smells!

Sunday Sevens #6

October 19, 2014April 6, 20182014, Sunday Sevens6 Comments

It’s that time of the week again people! Sunday Sevens – seven photos taken daily, of my week. Bits of my life that I would like to share with whoever reads this post!

I’ve really enjoyed my week this week. I spent a couple of days focused on some paperwork that needed to be done, but I had been putting it off for a while. Once I had completed it, I felt like a weight had been lifted…so a craft filled week was had!

1. Easy access cocoa powder. Cocoa powder in the UK tends to come in a cardboard cylinder shaped container and has a very awkward foil seal on it, which I have never managed to open without a puff of cocoa entering the air! It was a joy to open this stuff!
