Recipe - Millionaire's Shortbread


Who doesn't love caramel? Because I sure do... and actually, so has everyone else I've ever come into contact with. And what could be better than putting it with chocolate and shortbread? Nothing. Nothing could be better than that.

A few years ago I decided I wanted to make myself some Millionaire's Shortbread because I couldn't find any that were gluten free anywhere. This style of shortbread isn't really a thing in America, so I decided I would have to start testing out recipes and introducing it to my friends and family, so they could see what they were missing out on. Fast forward a few years and now, it's what I'm known for. So, if you're looking for delicious home-made caramel sandwiched between shortbread and chocolate, then look no further!

Recipe - Pork Souvlaki



I recently went to Cyprus for a friend's wedding, where the food just blew me away. I have missed European food - especially Greek/Cypriot and it was all so glorious; even the pork! I never eat pork. Well, I eat bacon, but never buy pork in any other form, as I've never really enjoyed it...until I was in Cyprus! All of it was so delicious (probably all the salt), I came home with a giant craving to continue my mediterranean diet. And although it'll probably never be as good as the real thing, I decided to have a good try at replicating the Pork Souvlaki. And boy, did it taste good.

NYC, NY


A couple of weeks ago I had a very quick visit to New York. It intially began as a trip to see a live podcast show of All Killa No Filla (yes I love podcasts about serial killers & if you haven't listened to this, do it now), then turned into me also being a guest on a podcast (Past Your Bedtime) and then finally seeing my husband's band in Brooklyn! I love New York! 

As this was a quick trip, I decided that I would use this time to visit my favourite places and finally get to try a certain GF restaurant, that I somehow kept missing... Senza Gluten. 

I was in NY for about 36 hours, but managed to fit a lot into such a small amount of time & I already can't wait until I go back again...
