Or I can just shop from their online store! Have a look at these items in their kitchen selection that I am totally loving: egg [...]

Feeling like some 'slaw..

Kitchen Envy: When I think that i'm over you, I'm overpowered
Ok so I totally stole the post title from a Roisin Murphy song.. I felt a little Scandinavian designed out earlier this year. Yes, I love the aesthetic, but I had looked at one too many white kitchens..sheesh..It’s so far from my own personal style and was likely something I would never do. So I [...]

Taking the outdoors in for the Autumn

I can’t believe it’s almost time to take the outdoors in, no more garden parties, no more picnics and back to warm snuggly comfort food. [...]
