Baker & Foodie Content Creator
My name is Lee, welcome to my pages. I hope we can have fun together?
When I’m not developing recipes for others, writing guest blogs, writing my own blog, or even trying to learn how to paint, I’m usually spending time with the amazing Mr G (my husband) or with my lovely daughter or my lovely son (very proud mum).
What is this all about? Great question. This site is about real cooking and baking, real recipes and real mistakes.
No filters here, (although i’d love to find a filter that can take ten years worth of laugh lines away. Just me, whats happening, and whatever cameras or phone i have to hand .
There are many things that get under my bonnet and wiggle around, one of those is food waste. If i buy ingredients specifically for a recipe, and i only need a small amount of the ingredients, i want to be able to use the rest up and not have to throw them away. My mum used to say , “Waste not Want not” is that still a saying ?
For me, waste is not just about using up all the ingredients. What about leftover food? If i’m able , i hope to give ideas as to how to use up any leftovers too.
Be Brave
Cooking isn’t hard , neither is baking, its all about being brave and being ok with making mistakes

Oat and Goats Cheese Biscuit Recipe
A biscuit thats perfect to eat alone or use them to hold piles of cheese and cut meats!
Not a difficult biscuit to make and not a biscuit thats designed to stay in the cupboard for weeks, once made, they’re best eaten within a few days.
It’s the addition of goats cheese that makes these biscuits so delicious and i use St Helens Farm mature goats cheese to give them their umami flavour , it works really well too!
An easy recipe to use fresh cherries on this Fresh Cherry Frangipane Tart. Let the super juicy cherries drip down into the warm golden frangipane as the cherry glaze shines on the top. An incredible way to use seasonal cherries .
Its slightly browny, sightly caky but 100% indulgent! A dense fudgy cake, so go to another recipe of your looking for a light and airy cake. The cake itself is moist because of the courgettes, rich and indulgent because of the cocoa, and as if that’s not enough, the delectable smooth dark chocolate ganache certainly tips it over the edge.
Perfect Hand Stretched Goats Cheese thin based pizza with stuffed crust & home-made charred cherry tomato Sauce. So easy to make it should be added to your family recipe book.
