It is flat out cold this week, so our lovely Woman Crush Wednesday chef is going to warm us up! Without a doubt we have to make a soup, and the gorgeous gourmet gal perfect for inspiration today is Allegra McEvedy. She is also a resident of London so she’s probably bundled up as well. And I hope she enjoys the lovefest over on my Snapchat channel (username blissbakery) where I will recreate live her awesome Beet and Bramley soup recipe! Continue reading
It is day 21 of #30daysofgratitude a Snapchallenge that I am hosting on my Snapchat channel (username blissbkery). I love seeing what everyone is grateful for each day. It is nice that I am not the only one giving “props” to the four legged lovable creatures in our lives whom we call pets. In fact I’ve already given thanks this month for Stella our sweet pit! But today I have to pay homage to Jack, our Soul Dog, who passed away two years ago today after blessing us with fourteen years life. Continue reading
With the little break from my Woman Crush Wednesday episode last week due to our travels to Iceland I’m back with a bang! I LOVE this day! A chance to spread some love on a female foodie who is setting the culinary world on fire. This week’s chef is the gorgeous gourmet gal Lilly Higgins. She is a Ballymaloe Cookery School trained chef like myself and she has written two amazing cookery books, Make, Bake, Love and Dream Deli. I am so excited to finally give her this special day so I can share all things Lilly with you reading this in different corners of the globe. And I will be doing my live Snapchat cooking tutorial (my username is blissbakery) of a recipe of Lilly’s that I have never made before. Continue reading

Last year was the first year I was blogging during my birthday. Here is the post I wrote to celebrate: “Triskaidekaphobia + 51 is the new 21“. Now I realize that being 51 and 21 are totally different, so that part was a joke. But there really is a phobia about Friday the 13th, and that was the day on which my birthday happened to be last year. And indeed I was also born on a Friday the 13th. So for me it is a lucky day!

No matter what your feelings are about the U.S. Election this week, there is one group that often gets forgotten and yet is deeply affected. That is the military, the men and women in uniform, from the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines and Coast Guards. As I shared last year at this time, I am deeply connected with Real Heroes. Those in uniform that fight to defend our country. Continue reading
When people hear TMI they might think of the acronym “Too Much Information”. It is true some people share TMI, telling near strangers things better left unsaid. But I have some TMI for you and it is info you need in your life! Especially if you are on Instgram. My version of the acronym is called: Tuesday, My Instagrams. I’m talking about the Instagrammers on my feed that I like to follow! Continue reading
