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

Asparagus Tart with Wild Garlic Butter Flaky Pastry recipe is one of the easiest savoury tart to make and really showcases the summers crop pf asparagus.
Using wild garlic butter to make the quick flaky pastry is a game changer, and the pastry takes this tart from something good to something great.
Kuglof – Croatian Apple Bundt Cake recipe. A cake that looks as good as it tastes. With undertones of citrus and with apples running through the light sponge, It’s light and comes out of the tin in that unmistakable shape from the Bundt tin. Its the tin that gives the name to the cake, so if you can find a pretty one in a charity shop, i’d snap it up straight away.
