There’s been a big deal in the news over here about the amount of food that goes to waste. I’m guilty of it. Though, I like to think I’m pretty good at not wasting everything. I’ve been known to drink milk that’s past it’s best […]

Bake!
The Great British Bake Off has been back and it’s worked its way into my head. Telling me I need to bake. I just wish I could bake all the amazing goodies I see on the show. Maybe one day. I’ll build myself up to […]

A maybe weekly round-up (3)

Photo of the day: Too good not to try
