I feel I am very much on a cookie hype at the moment. I have had such strong cravings for cookies lately so am actively seeking them out. Maybe it's something to do with the very cold and rainy weather here in the UK, and I am just craving cosy and comforting food? In any … Continue reading Afterschool Cookie Club chocolate cookie

Crosstown raspberry jam
It was bound to happen at some point, where Crosstown - one of my absolute favourite brands for doughnuts - finally releases a doughnut that could be deemed a dud. Now when I say dud, I simply mean that in comparison to some of the other options out there, this one is just a little … Continue reading Crosstown raspberry jam
Whittard Orange hot chocolate
I am so glad that it is now autumn here in England. English autumns are very much the same as winters, in that it is grey 99% of the time, usually raining, but the weather is slightly more bipolar. At the moment the mornings and the evenings are getting really quite icy (under 10 degrees … Continue reading Whittard Orange hot chocolate

Nothing resets my mind better than a quiet … Continue reading Sunday Musings
Floof friday
Following on from my previous post, I thought everyone would appreciate this pigeon, having a little rest in a sunbeam in St James's Park. Rest assured, he was behind a metal fence so that no one could accidentally stand on him, and no one was reaching over to bother him. We watched him rummage around … Continue reading Floof friday
The birds at St James’s Park London
It was my birthday recently and since the weather was (surprisingly!) beautiful still here in the UK, I decided to be a tourist for the day and check out all of these places that I have never been to in London. St James's Park is beautiful, and right by Buckingham Palace and the Horse Guards, … Continue reading The birds at St James’s Park London
Pizza Pilgrims vegan margherita
I first discovered Pizza Pilgrims about 5 years ago, however at that point the only vegan option they offered was a tomato base pizza. Which is exactly how it sounds - pizza with tomato sauce on it - and so it wasn't really a favourite of mine to visit. The pizza was very tasty even … Continue reading Pizza Pilgrims vegan margherita
