Ooh...Tuesday Tipple: Snowball

Continuing my theme of easy recipes for when that unexpected guest arrives, my next festive treat is a classic Yuletide tipple that my boyfriend absolutely loves. For him it's not the festive season without his Snowball cocktail... and here's how you can make them a tradition in your home too!

Ooh...Festive food: Cranberry and Brie Mini Tartlets

For the first of my festive food posts I decided to start off with probably one of the most simple canapés to make - they are fast and easy to rustle up and take minimum effort...  but most importantly they are fabulously festive and gorgeous to taste!

Ooh... Hello again!

Well firstly I must apologise for my absence; what with one thing or another my posts have slipped by the wayside. Work has been hectic but rather fun recently, Christmas has landed leaving everything in its wake either covered in glitter (think I have inhaled quite a bit!!) or smelling of cinnamon!

Ooh... Tuesday Tipple: The Grand Duchess

This Tuesday I thought I would share my 'go to' cocktail. Having stirred this up on a number of occasions it's a great all rounder. The Grand Duchess is a simple yet satisfying drink which looks great in any glass and tastes delicious!

Ooh...Seasonal Sparkle

I'm a bit of a magpie at heart, often drawn to all that glitters and sparkles! This probably explains why my favourite time of year is Christmas!

Ooh... Tuesday Tipple: Apple, Elderflower and Vodka Frost

Remember when Mr Frosty Slush maker was your favourite toy?

Why did we think we were so cool making crushed ice drinks for our friends?  Now all grown-up, there's still nothing more refreshing than a frozen drink and I hope even Mr Frosty himself would approve of this tipple! A great and fast alternative to an appletini.....

Ooh....Tuesday Tipple: The Grapefruit Sparkler

During another of my mammoth sessions tumbling through the blogging world, I stumbled upon a simple little cocktail from Martha Stewart Weddings. The Grapefruit Sparkler was there in all it's glory - being sold by Martha as a perfect welcome drink at a wedding reception.... but I have decided to add my own little touch!

Ooh... Simple Sunday Recipe: Skinny Sponge Cake

Ooh... Skinny Sponge Cake Summers....

Every summer as a child we would pack up the car and drive the 200+ miles to visit my paternal grandparents in Buckinghamshire.

Ooh... It's the little things

I have a real thing for party planning.  I could spend hours (and often do) tumbling through endless pages of American and Australian blogs, suffering serious dessert-table envy at the options that were being denied me....

Ooh....Tuesday Tipple! The Maltese Falcon

During our recent trip to Malta this summer I was delighted to see my favourite cocktail the Maltese Falcon was still on the menu at 120 Bar. A sharp, citrusy drink made with the local liqueur Bajtra which gives it a delicate pink colour. Here's how it's made....

Ooh.....Lemon drops!

Like most of the world I have a few guilty pleasures so I confess I am OBSESSED with 'Keeping up with the Kardashians'. However, its not just the antics of the Kardashians/Jenner clan that keep me hanging on for the next instalment - I just cannot wait to see the home decor by Jeff Andrews and the interiors of the places they visit.

Ooh.... Hello World!
