Hey guys! If you've been reading my posts on Sundays, you'll know that I've moved on from recipes (though I will still be posting them up on my blog from time to time!) and towards writing about my dreaded dissertation in something I'm calling my "Dissertation Diaries". My first entry was all about how I… Continue reading Dissertation Diaries: What to do once you’ve finished your proposal

The Great British Bake Off Week 10
It's the FINAL (ok, deep breaths, guys!) of the Great British Bake Off. Can you believe after 10 weeks of tiers, tears and tension in every Brits favourite tent the competition is over? (I definitely can't!). (For my thoughts on the previous weeks: Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, Week 4, Week 5, Week 6,… Continue reading The Great British Bake Off Week 10
Halloween cupcakes and spiderweb shortbread
Hey guys! Considering it's not long at all until Halloween, I thought I'd post not one but TWO spooky treats you just have to make this year and, trust me, they're scary good! Whether you're hosting a Halloween party, looking for something to do with the kids or just in need of a treat for… Continue reading Halloween cupcakes and spiderweb shortbread
The Great British Bake Off Week 9
It's the Semi-Final of everyone's favourite baking competition (just my favourite? Ok) and, so far, it's been quite the competition! There's been plenty of heat, helping, Hollywood handshakes and amazing flavours and designs. (You can read my thoughts on the previous weeks: Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, Week 4, Week 5, Week 6, Week… Continue reading The Great British Bake Off Week 9
The Great British Bake Off Week 8
Can you believe it's the quarter final already? (I definitely can't!). The competition stepped up a notch as the final five battled for a place in the semi-finals, in rather cheery Hawaiian shirts (as an ode to Jon, who left the competition last week) but- as Paul and Prue got critical- the atmosphere in the tent got… Continue reading The Great British Bake Off Week 8
Dissertation Diaries
Hey guys! I know you're probably thinking "where's today's recipe post?" considering that's what you're used to seeing on this blog on Sunday. However, I wanted to move away from posting baking content so much and towards something I talk about in my "About Me" section. As well as an avid baker, and book lover… Continue reading Dissertation Diaries
The Great British Bake Off Week 7
The tent was free of dairy this week but there was still plenty of tiers, tears and tension as the remaining six bakers fought for a place in the quarter final. (You can read my thoughts on the previous weeks: Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, Week 4, Week 5 and Week 6) This week,… Continue reading The Great British Bake Off Week 7
Carrot cake squares
Hey guys! I'm a day late (considering I spent yesterday mainly in bed feeling sorry for myself- after cocktail making for my friend's 21st and falling down some stairs, sober I'll add!) but I hope how good this recipe is will make up for it. It's autumn now and, like it or not, the cold… Continue reading Carrot cake squares
The Great British Bake Off Week 6
The bakers could really filo the pressure this week, as the competition creeps closer and closer to the final, in a series that’s been handshakes aplenty, filled with glorious bakes and plenty of nail biting moments. ( You can read my thoughts on the previous weeks: The Great British Bake Off Week 1, The Great… Continue reading The Great British Bake Off Week 6
