I {HEART} July
July, July, July what a wonderful month you have been to me. It has been a month of lots of hard work and productivity but lots of celebrations and fun stuff too, no complaints from me! Ultimately July was epic because it was and end of an era and saw me cross the PhD...
Triple Chocolate Protein Brownies
Super fudgy and chocolate goodness are the words that come to mind where brownies are concerned. For me brownies are the ultimate chocolate dessert and the best thing is that they are so darn easy to make! After lots of experimentation I think I have come up...
Rainy Days
Yoga is definitely a great way to start the day. I’ve just finished a 20 minute session of my own free style yoga and I feel better for it. In fact that’s probably the most movement that I’ve done all weekend. Alfie’s away visiting friends so I have...
Easy summer salads and blog maintenance
Happy Friday friends, hope your week has been good! I’ve been really enjoying the cooler weather. It’s still warm enough to be summer but far more comfortable that you are not sweating buckets with the slightest move. I wish the clouds would...
Strawberry and Mint Juice
I’ve recently really got into juicing and have enjoyed all of the endless flavour combinations that can be concocted. With all of the experimentation with juices that I tried recently I feel like a bit of a cocktail shaker of the juicing world. I made this Strawberry...

Spelt Flour Pancakes
There’s nothing like pancakes to start your weekend. After a busy week, having a leisurely breakfast that you have lovingly spent your time over is extremely satisfying. I never have the time to make pancakes during the week, so making them at the weekend makes...
Indulgent breakfasts, shorts and a BBQ for two
It’s been another beautiful weekend and it looks like sunshine is going to be here for a while. Oxford is always beautiful, but it the sunshine just makes it look that extra little bit special. I’m so lucky to live in such a pretty part of the world. I woke up...
Ex Smokers are unstoppable
I have never been a smoker, but probably like every other impressionable young teenager I’ve had a few puffs of a cigarette. Even though I tried it and a lot of people in my friends were smoking it’s not something that was really for me. A large portion of the...
