When craving pancakes the logical solution is to head down to My Old Dutch. Not only do they have a wide range of sweet and savoury pancakes, but they are big and amazing!

Fish Stew
I love eating seafood but rarely ever make any for myself at home, partly as I’m always a little unsure of the best way to cook fish. My mum bought me a book on how to prepare and cook fish to help me overcome this! Although this particular recipe is not from that book- it did help to inspire me.

What do you want to read about?
So I have a few blog posts in the pipeline that I’m currently working on, but wondered what you- yes you really want to read about. So I have created a poll so that people can vote on what they would like to see on here, as you are my readers I feel it makes sense to ask what you like.
So please, vote, let me know. If there is none of your preferred answers- leave a comment, let me know. Thanks! 🙂
Chocolate Biscuit Cake
Toad in the Hole
I’ve not made this for a really long time and after recently having Yorkshire puddings with my Nana, it gave me a real craving for more lovely batter! There are lots of slightly different ways to make the batter, for me the key is to get as much air in it as possible, so get those wrists strengthened!
2012 in review
The lovely people here at WordPress created an annual review of my blog. I found this quite interesting to see what people are actually looking at overall. I check my stats quite a lot, but am often just looking to see what people were looking at this week. I’ve shared this here just in case anyone else wishes to read it. I doubt it, but maybe you might. It made me think about how few posts I’ve written in the past few months though, and has inspired me to start blogging again more regularly.
Here’s an excerpt:
600 people reached the top of Mt. Everest in 2012. This blog got about 4,300 views in 2012. If every person who reached the top of Mt. Everest viewed this blog, it would have taken 7 years to get that many views.

People’s Kitchen
“For the people, by the people”
Run every Sunday a handful of people go around collecting surplice food from around the community and bring it back to Passing Clouds in Hackney to make a feast. From about 3pm onwards a collection of volunteers sort through the food and come up with some delicious dishes.
