Quarantining

Since I’ve been stuck at home for the last two months, I got back my bug of wanting to do posts regularly. On top of that, I also have all the time in the world to create content (with restrictions of course). I’ve been cooking up some sort of a storm at home, using ingredients…

Breakfast in Bed – Mother’s Day

Its Mother’s Day this Sunday and as cliched as it may be, breakfast in bed is the ideal thing to do for her. On countless mornings your mum has woken up and prepared a meal for you to either eat fresh, or pack and take. Whether its before school, early in the morning for a…

Planning Your Christmas

It’s finally December! I’m so flipping excited. In comparison, to the rest of the world, my Christmas is very subdued. My family isn’t Christian or anything so we don’t really celebrate Christmas, however, it is one of my favorite times of the year. The weather is all snugly and cold, you favorite sweaters are out,…

The Perfect Cheese Board

After scouring Pinterest for ideas for the picnic, one thing I noticed everyone had at a picnic, be it big or small was some sort of cheese board, which meant I absolutely had to have one. This involved not just cheese and crackers, but several other elements as well. I started off with three different…

Sandwiches

A sandwich is a done thing for a picnic. We stuck to two simple sandwiches a Chicken with Marinara Sauce and a Tomato and Cheese one. I had initially planned to do a pesto one however one of the salads had a pesto in it, so I thought why not change it up. Again, I…

Salads

  Salads are a super easy thing to whip up for a picnic, and are honestly super easy to eat. It’s not drippy, its light and can be eaten cold. We were quite ambitious while planning and decided to do 5 salads, but in the end we only made 3 salads. I made two a…
