Cheaty McCheaterson’s Chocolate Fudge

I feel like my time is being squeezed on all sides at the moment. I am back in school, so feeling that dreadful “I should really be studying guilt”, I no longer work out before work as my placement starts at 6:30 AM – a bit too early to fit any sort of workout in […]

Chocolate Coconut Shortbread

It’s my birthday. While I am being whisked off to a mystery location (which so far involves an overnight stop in Sonoma), I shall leave you with this tasty little number for your eye viewing pleasure. (I’m pretty sure this is something I just made up, but just roll with it) Yum yum.   Chocolate […]

Double Chocolate and Coconut Chunk “Icecream”

It feels weird calling this icecream when it doesn’t involve any cream. It’s more like Chocolate and Coconut frozen coconut milk dessert with chunks of chocolate and coconut. But that doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue now does it? The desire to make icecream, and the subsequent creation of this dish of joy arose from […]

Coconut, Ginger, and Banana Pancakes.

Happy Pancake Day! …or Shrove Tuesday, Fat Tuesday, Mardi Gras, or whatever you call it. This day last year, we had everyone round to our house and whipped up a whole load of pancakes for everyone, in our annual Pancake Day Pancakeathon. This year is slightly different, as we don’t have oodles of people to […]

Lime and Coconut Butterfly Cakes

This weekend we went away. Away to the land of lights and gambling, over-the-top-ness and still actually allowing smoking indoors. Ick. It was our friend Ashlei’s birthday, and we met up with her in Vegas, spending a few days (mainly) eating and going to see a Cirque show. Mr M had a little play at […]

Banana, Coconut, and Oat Cookies.

I have been trying to make sure I get some sort of daily exercise. Mostly it involves the gym in our complex, but it is a) quite dull, and b) a total waste of living in California! When I can get out with my hiking group it is pretty great, but I can’t always have […]

Post Christmas: Coconut Sorbet.

All over for another year. So didya have fun? Didya spend some time with your friends and family? We did. Although it was over the internet rather than in person. Alas. Christmas dinner this year was just the two of us, but although it was just the two of us, it didn’t mean that we […]

Coconut Hobnobs

It has been a hella busy week! I spent most of this week at home, catching up with friends, and taking a little trip to Redcar beach for the wonder that is a Lemon Top! Seriously, these things are really good! But, alas I couldn’t stay up there forever, and had to get back to […]

Great British Bake Off Week 7: Coconut and Cardamom Roly Poly

So, I’m a little late to link up to the Great Bloggers Bake Off run by the Crazy Kitchen and Mummy Mishaps this week, alas, it has been a very busy week! Most of my evenings last week were taken up by doing some preparation for my last day at work goodies, and having a Dexter get together for […]

Great British Bake Off Week 6: Mango, Coconut, Ginger, and Mint Tea Loaf

Can you tell I’m trying to use up some of the random ingredients from my cupboards? I have made regular tea loaf cake before, and it’s a much underrated baked good I think, so simple to put together, but of course requiring a bit of forward planning to soak your fruit overnight….and yeah, technically it isn’t […]
