It took a while to realise – but today’s my 2nd blogiversary feels weird to be honest, to think I’ve been posting recipes for the past two years. Mind you, only 130 or so I’d like to include a few sappy words – a romantic reminisce of the past couple of years. But these uni projects won’t … Continue reading »

best oreo biscuits
As delightful as this recipe was, is as tragic as it was. So having bought my new camera, I took snaps here and there of these amazing homemade Oreo cookies, but my unreliable SD card didn’t save all of them! Sadly, because of this, you all miss out on the succulency of the dough before it’s baked. … Continue reading »

frozen french chocolate tart
Simon Wright. What can I say? Your recipe looked a lot more promising than Al’s….but hey, it still didn’t work out! But if anyone’s to blame, it’d be me this time, because there were some mistakes I made which I should have been more careful of. a) I forgot to turn down the oven – it … Continue reading »
