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

Sausage, Spinach & Green Bean Shakshuka recipe for Karbon Homes. This is a dish that is so easy to make and so tasty it will soon be one of your family favourites. Packed full of spicy sausage with added spinach and of course a tin of green beans, makes it economical to make too.
Confit Aubergine recipe. I love it on almost anything, but most of all i love it sitting on top of some softly squashed avocado, with some oven roasted tomatoes all resting on top of a heavily buttered slice of sourdough toast.
Lamb with Za’atar, Hal el , Harissa and Olives - This is a slow cooked leg of lamb that’s not for the faint hearted. WARNING, don’t make this if you’re a flavour wuss. A few hours in the slow cooker and whats left is this juicy dish packed with some great flavour
