THESE VEGETABLES WILL STRENGTHEN YOUR BONES – AND KALE SHAKSHUKA

April 20, 2018 Leave a Comment

Growing up, I was very close to my paternal grandmother. She was widowed young and filled her life with a cohort of doughty female friends and relations. They became, by extension, my ‘aunties’.

BOOSTING BONE STRENGTH AND THE SIMPLEST FISH PIE

September 11, 2015 1 Comment

Yaay! My right hand has just been liberated after five weeks in a plaster cast (and of course I am right handed)- such a relief. I broke my wrist in two places, slipping on mud flats while walking at low tide over the summer. It took a split second to do, and has been surprisingly painful…

The Power of the Mediterranean Diet, picnicking Kale-and-Cocoa-style and a frittata.

July 25, 2014 5 Comments

On holiday? Dreaming of holiday?
