Mangieri has been consulting for Undici...

I went for radio therapy early this morning, the appointment was for 8:30am. All went well. Gina, my friend came with me today. After the radio therapy we went for a coffee up stairs in oncology at the mustard tree which is run by McMillan. We then met Steph and Ali. Steph was supposed to be having chemotherapy today but her blood was too low. She had a 10:30 appointment to have medication to strengthen...

This is a recipe for a good game stock – it is a modified version of one that appears in Lindsey Bareham’s very excellent book A Celebration of Soup . If you have some game carcasses left over from a meal, turn them into stock – you can either freeze the stock, or the carcasses, for whenever you need them. You don’t need many either – I managed to make a pint of good stock...

Last Wednesday while chopping shallots with my shiny new knife , I cut my thumb. Badly. I was really lucky I didn't slice the tip of my thumb off. While this isn't the first time I've hurt myself in the kitchen (I have a scar on my arm from an oven burn), this was by far my most extreme accident. From hot oil to slippery knives, there's plenty of danger in cooking, so do tell: have you hurt yourself...

There's no simpler supper than a baked potato. Load it with roast pork or a juicy stew and your bonfire night will go with a bang We seem to have jumped from mozzarella lunches to baked potato suppers overnight. It was only two weeks ago we ate our last lunch outdoors (rather wobbly salmon rissoles with green bean and shallot salad). Admittedly I had a fleece on, but I distinctly remember having to...

Hubbys home. My life is restored to normality and I am happy again. Playing domestic goddess has made me chuckle, so far I have made him coffee, run him a bath AND put dinner in the oven! Comments

A dull autumnal day in Stockwell- I went out in my overcoat earlier although I think it was a bit too OTT for late October, another couple of weeks maybe. When not out, been cooking - lamb tagine - looks OK so far slow cooking in the oven as I type. Alos waiting for some chicken stock to defrost that will become either carrot or cauliflower soup. That should be enough food to last me until the end...

I just love these spare ribs. Sometimes I make up a batch and we just sit & eat them whilst watching a film. Not the healthiest meal in the world, but oh so good. Alternatively, they make a tasty starter to a chinese meal. Especially if you have guests too; everybody tucks into a large plate of ribs whilst chatting and enjoys getting all sticky. 500g pork spare ribs 2 tbs clear honey 2 tbs soft...

This week's Tuesdays With Dorie baking challenge is Dorie's Allspice Muffins , chosen by Kayte of Grandma's Kitchen Table (who has the recipe within her blog). If you're looking for a crumb cake treat, this one fits the bill! Dorie's Allspice Muffins remind me of mini coffee cakes. Maybe it's the brown sugar streusel or the tender crumb of these muffins, but regardless, these muffins are delicious...

This week's SMS was chosen by Jen of Not Microwave Safe : sticky buns! I love cinnamon rolls and have made them many times, but I don't think I've ever made sticky buns so I was psyched! Also, I was glad this was a treat Shane would gladly eat so I didn't need to worry about finding someone to share these with :) All that said, the last time we made a yeast recipe for SMS (remember the bee stings'),...

Most wood-fired pizza ovens I've seen are built to last. The folks over at Machine Project built this temporary oven for a recent event and self proclaimed pizza fanatic Mike Senese of Catch It Keep It fame was kind enough to document its construction . [Thanks, Max!] I attended a fantastic pizza making event at Machine Project (instructor: Michael O'Malley) that included the construction and firing...

Japanese artist Masa Kimura teamed up with industrial designer Yuri Suzuki --whose past inventions include the graffiti radio, sound jewelry, and Bluetooth tap shoes--to create a multi-function machine that can...

I've been meaning to blog all week but one thing led to another and now, it's Monday and I'm wondering where the last few days went. With two children, a husband and a household to run, the days just whizz by. This is the first quiet moment I've had in the office (television off and not blaring the Disney channel or some sporting event) and not surprisingly, it's almost midnight before I can post about...
