Starting a Blog...

...something I never thought I'd do. I've never been the best at English or spelling (although I do love a good game of Scrabble) but I've found something I love and want to share not only my passion for cooking but experiences and tips as a student.
It probably won't be very interesting, and I'll be amazed if anyone actual reads this but whilst I've been sat at home enjoying the last of the summer before uni (in other words with too much time on my hands) I found myself writing a list of things I'd write about if I was ever brave enough to do it and this is the result...

I started a separate insta account in Feburary (@veggie_student_life go give it a follow 😉) while bored at uni. Most people have a second account that's private to a select few friends that they spam with funny pictures of birthday posts but I started to share pics of my food! From the start of uni I'd always been taking photos of my food that I'd send to my parents almost every day - mainly because after being anorexic over the summer they didn't think I'd actually eat but also because I was enjoying cooking and proud of the things I was making. The food I make/bake isn't the fanciest but it tastes good, and is often cheap (I'm a student surviving on a budget of just over 10 quid a week😅).

So enjoy...

Simple Coffee-Time Biccies

Simple Coffee-Time Biccies Home lock-down has got my family going slightly stir crazy! I'm loving the extra baking and cooking time, locking myself in the kitchen whenever I can and have found some great recipes online and in the newspaper (BBC Good Food is always a favourite; there's some great pages to follow on insta too for inspiration and recipes and the telegraph food and drink section is getting bigger every day!!) While insanity is starting to hit - we're trying to keep a routine/pattern and coffee time is now a major feature! It's the really needed morning pick-me-up a chance to break from revision, gather for a chat and of course eat biscuits!! Knowing how much my family love biscuits, we go through quite a few so I found this simple recipe online and have been loving making them on a regular basis. As you can see, the measures are a bit odd - I halved the recipe and found it made plenty of perfectly sized coffee time biccies! The Recipe below is f...

Little Life Update - Lockdown

So this is all a bit strange ... on our 4th week of lockdown! To be honest, I actually really enjoyed it to start with, getting time to spend with my family that I wouldn’t have had normally, but I think it’s fair to say we’re all getting a bit fed up with it now!! Not helped by the weather changing from nice sunshine last week to rain or the fact that I’m getting ever closer to exams but the mood has definitely changed. In the first couple of weeks, to make up for some special events we were due to go to but were obviously cancelled, we had a couple evenings all round the table - I cooked a big three course meal, we all dressed up and actually had a good time! Last week, it was dad’s birthday, something to look forward to and celebrate, we tried to make it special for him with our first bbq of the season!! Always a favourite, I made all the trimmings and we had an amazing evening out in the garden! Right now, we don’t have anything to look forward to, but I’m hoping we will do somet...
