I felt a little mischievous the other afternoon. A friend of mine had been to the States and she brought me back a couple of cake mixes. Plus I was wanting to try adding some Matcha green tea to a cake so guess what?? …. that’s […]
I was invited to the Underground Cookery School in London to preview their cooking school along with 19 other bloggers and asked only that if we liked the evening we share it. The cooking school is run by Mat Kemp since 2003, a few minutes walk from Old […]
