I wrote (and ate) this a few weeks ago, hence the title, but since I spent the time on it I thought I’d share anyway rather than let my time be wasted. Monday – Courgette Carbonara I’ll be honest I was getting a bit sick of requests for Amatriciana on…
I asked followers what you wanted to see here and the loudest answer that came back was “dinner ideas” so while I’m working on loads of those here’s our latest week in dinners which might introduce something new to you. This was the first week for a while where I…
It’s the most hectic time of the year! The weeks are flying past and we’re eagerly counting the sleeps. Our house has been very busy these past few weeks with the school musical, ballet recital and the usual activities thrown into the mix. Add two parents’ longer commutes due to…
It’s been a crazy few weeks, spanning into months really at this stage. We’ve had the heatwave, the usual end of term silly season, camps, our lovely holiday to Portugal, and in the middle of it all we moved house. We’ve been packing and unpacking boxes for what seems like…
This should be a post about lighter Spring dinners but let’s face it, Spring is yet to show her face around here yet. Therefore there’s a lot of comfort in this instalment of week in dinners. Again I feel like we’re eating the same things a lot so I’d like…

I’m not a great meal planner, so my usual modus operandi has me buy similar things each week, then look for inspiration as to what to turn them into. Sometimes I do it moments before I am about to start cooking. Not clever. Little fills me with more dread on a…
I’m not great at meal planning, or certainly not for the whole week, and I find when I do life throws curveballs. That’s why rather than sharing my meal plan at the start of the week (Like Life on Hushabye Farm’s fantastic Meal Planning Monday series) I share after the…
Week in Dinners is sort of the opposite of Meal Planning. You see, I’ve never been great at planning in advance for dinners, as I either change my mind or I get delayed in work or traffic and I change what I had planned as time is too short, or…
Readers will know that I have a bit of an obsession with dinner. I believe that a “good dinner” sets you up and is a good indicator of how well you’re eating (nobody needs to know about the Toblerone and wine an hour later OK?) or how well you’re minding…
