I’ve had things like tuna, trying to get more fish into my diet, eating more vegetables (also because I’m poor and they’re...

Julie and Julia
One of my all time favourite films, I recommended it to one of my friends and she came round and watched it with me and my house mate Beckie. She loved it. I can’t believe how excited I got to watch it. Every moment a new dish/meal or type of food appeared onto the screen butterflies would go in my stomach and a wide smile would stretch across my face. Sometimes I think I’m losing my love and...

Uni
I actually can’t wait to get the next 2/3 weeks out of the way so I can really get on with cooking again. I feel like I’m slacking a bit! Even though I’m doing my once a week recipes, I just want the freedom to spend a whole day trying to make something, reading my cook books and food shopping.
I am one sad 20 year old student hahaha
