Tonight’s dinner is coming at you a day late due to the biggest catastrophe ever to befall this blogger – the broadband went down. After much wailing and gnashing of teeth we switched the computer off and when we work up in the morning, the broadband fairies had been and fixed it. Happy days. So, … Read more

As I don’t have coeliac disease, I can eat all the gluten in the world and it doesn’t affect … Read more

And tonight’s gluten free dinner is… Fried polenta with corn guacamole and hot wasabi nuts Yes, it’s a bit of a crazy mix of food – some people call it fusion, we call it ‘whatever’s in the cupboard’. We’re polenta newbies, which might sound odd seeing as it’s a gluten free staple, but I’ve not … Read more
