This is my personal food blog where I write reviews, experiences and recipes. In 2026, it’s about 20 years old – though the older entries have been badly transferred from a previous version of the blog.

Photos are terrible – they are just snapshots taken with my tablet often as I’m preparing or serving food. Sometimes I marvel at just how bad most of my photos are, but they’re a testament to my life.

A big topic of my blog is thrift. We don’t have much money, so we have to be careful. Occasionally we can treat ourselves, however. We have good times and bad times – and you can see it all reflected here.

My main audience is myself and one day, I hope, my children. It’s non commercial and I don’t accept any ads, sponsorship or compensation – though I will very occasionally have a referral link to a service I’ve subscribed to or accept an item for review.

I hope you can find something of value for you here.
