If you’re just joining me you might think that I only know how to cook pasta since my last recipe was “Quick Creamy Pasta” but when I decided yesterday that my lunch was too good not to share with you I forgot that in December 2015 I had already told you how I feel about pasta. Anyway my relationship with pasta is so deep that it could be featured week after week but don’t worry my waistline couldn’t handle it and so you don’t have to either.
So I haven’t blogged in years and I’m not even sure where to begin. OK it’s been 6 months but in cyber space that must be equivalent to at leat 6 years.

During the day there’s tourist sights to see, if that’s your thing, or you can vacation like me and eat, drink and eat again. I have compiled a list of some things I think you must do, if you are visiting Budapest and a few things I wish I had known before I went. Continue Reading…
I’ve been absent for a little but you can blame my new venture, Three Little Birds, in Brixton for that. By day it’s a café and boutique, by night it’s a kitchen and rum bar; all inspired by Jamaica, so come say hi soon.
