Wonderful Watermelon Salad

March 30, 2009 Greek Food

This post is probably a few months too late…sort of.  I actually had planned on blogging about this earlier, but I have been on a very busy schedule that I totally forgot about this recipe.  This is a very quick and tasty salad made with watermelon that is at its sweetest.  I actually saw a [...]

Sorry but this is another “summer fruit” post!  I’ve had this in my backlog of recipes and I really wanted to share it with you.  I promise there will be some savoury stuff soon.  What I like about this recipe is how easy and quick it is.  Because I’ve been going mad buying all sorts [...]

Blueberry Pikelets

January 17, 2009 Recipes

When I woke up this morning I was in the mood for pancakes.  Drizzled with a load of maple syrup and lashings of creamed butter.  Then I remembered I was trying to be “good”.  I played around with the concept and decided to make pikelets.  Pikelets are plumper than pancakes, made using a thick batter.  [...]

Me: Sure..not a problem (hmm…what on earth is she on about?)
Best friend: and don’t overdo the sugar!

I’ve been a little absent from blogging lately.  I’ve been trying to sort out some issues in regards to my travel arrangements.  Let’s just say it’s a good idea to have more than 6 months validity left on your passport when you travel!!! Anyway, I won’t bore you with that.  I want to talk about [...]

Tea Cake with a Sticky Tangelo Syrup

August 20, 2008 Recipes

Aaaah!  I gave in!  After eating enough tangelos to last me a life time, I still had many leftover.  There they were, on the counter, staring at me in their big brown bowl.  I tend not to bake very much as I usually prefer savoury dishes over sweet ones.  I didn’t want to complicate things [...]

Tangelos

August 18, 2008 Recipes

I take my citrus seriously.  Seriously!  My latest farmers market haul included the usual winter goodies of oranges, lemons and tangelos.  It had been ages since I had eaten tangelos and I really wanted to share my experience with them with you. They’re a cross between an orange and a grapefruit, full of juicy goodness.  [...]
