Road Stop Rabbit.
At times I think it’s OCD, the urge to stop, turn round and drive back to where I saw that ‘odd’ shape in, or on, or by the road. I can’t not go back, the thought that it may have been an injured animal and will most probably stay there until it dies or gets [...]
Jam on toast ~ raw style!
A super easy and healthy take on jam on toast I got from the great book ‘Raw Food Kitchen’ by Dunja Gulin. I sprouted some spelt grain, processed it with a little sea salt and dehydrated for a few hours. I then blitzed four ripe apricots with a tablespoon of agave syrup to make the [...]

They arrived two days ago and I wasn’t disappointed, full of inspiring words and beautiful living food/raw recipes I couldn’t wait to get started. My first meal from the book is the [...]
Parisian Pasta
Well, I’m not sure it’s particularly Parisian but as I bought it in Paris I think I can get away with it! It’s a mushroom truffle pasta which has been waiting for the right occasion for a couple of months now and as some very good friends were staying over I couldn’t think of a [...]
Fireman food!
When the sun comes out people all over the country are cleaning down the BBQ and digging out the bottle opener. So what if you want to skip the meat burgers and give your heart a break? Isn’t it dull to forgo the charred beef, and unthinkable ever to get excited about a non animal [...]
A Raw Dinner for four..
I have been making lots of raw dishes for some months now and I really love it (my ever expanding recipe book shelf is testament to this!), so last night I bit the raw vegan bullet and made dinner for four, using recipes I have learnt from the brilliant chef David Bailey. Dinner was Raw [...]
