Long May She Rain : Evelyn Dunbar

http://long-may-she-rain.blogspot.com/2012/02/evelyn-dunbar.html

I thought I would dedicate this weeks entry to a very talented lady, Evelyn Dunbar who was born in 1906 - a true artist and all-round heroine. I believe she is one of the most important artists of WW2, and who still holds a unique position in twentieth century British art. She was described by Sir William Rothenstein, principal of the Royal College of Art, as having ‘ real genius. 8217; and was the only salaried woman war artist in the Second World War. Evelyn photographed April 1941 in the Lake District.

Long May She Rain : Christmas in Wartime

http://long-may-she-rain.blogspot.com/2011/12/christmas-in-wartime.html

Animals in Wartime 1914-1918, Imperial War Museum. In what will be my last post before Christmas, I thought i'd share some findings of Christmas in Wartime that I have collected recently, the Imperial War Museum's. New website have begun to put their image collection online, I could have spent hours searching through! Captain C I Stockwell, who was present at the original Truce, wrote an account of the events on "one of the most curious Christmas Days". He had ever experienced. Where infantry units in cl...

South Molton St Starving: Review: Dinner by Heston Blumenthal, Knightsbridge SW1X

http://southmoltonststarving.blogspot.com/2012/02/dinner-by-heston-blumenthal.html

Sunday, 5 February 2012. Review: Dinner by Heston Blumenthal, Knightsbridge SW1X. It arrived (above). Now, to your right their appears to me an orange. Wrong! Overall, Dinner is worth a go. It isn't that pricey either, in comparison to other restaurants in town with the same formal rating. Don't expect much from your surroundings, but in truth - I do wonder if that is so that you focus more on the food. We had a great time, and 3 courses with spirits and wine came to £170. So, in total our survey said:.

Easy peasy lemon squeezy weekday basil chicken - Turquoise Lemons

http://www.turquoiselemons.com/2/post/2013/08/easy-peasy-lemon-squeezy-weekday-basil-chicken.html

No waste food challenge. Easy peasy lemon squeezy weekday basil chicken. This was an easy peasy quick weekday dinner which used some left over weekend roast chicken. It tasted fab and perfect for the light summer evenings. I took an oven roasting dish, buttered it and layered in the following:. A chopped up onion. Sliced half a lemon. Large fresh basil leave. Glass of white wine. I then just roasted at 180C until all the juices were mixed. I served with rice and green beans and voilla! It is always lovel...

South Molton St Starving: February 2012

http://southmoltonststarving.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html

Monday, 27 February 2012. Review: Hereford Road, Bayswater W2. We went out last week for our anniversary, and decided to avoid the crowds of the West End and do something a little more local. So with the power of Google and not very creative search terms, I found Hereford Road (on Hereford Road, Bayswater). We wanted British, organic, local food - and boy did we get it! Oh, and the waiters were just lovely. Book here: Hereford Road. 3 Hereford Road, Bayswater, W2 4AB. South Molton St Starving. Mandarin O...

Cheat's croissants with creative fillings - Turquoise Lemons

http://www.turquoiselemons.com/2/post/2013/02/cheats-filled-croissants.html

No waste food challenge. Cheat's croissants with creative fillings. After the success of my Orange Pain au Chocolat. Using Jus Roll I thought I would try their croissants and play with some fillings at the same time. Again these croissants are denser and less flaky than fresh bakery croissants but it is nice to whip some up at home. These would make a lovely Valentine's breakfast or weekend treat. I made my croissants with the following fillings:. Dried cranberries and chocolate. Jen @ Blue Kitchen Bakes.

Banana and granola grab and go muffins - Turquoise Lemons

http://www.turquoiselemons.com/2/post/2014/01/banana-and-granola-grab-and-go-muffins.html

No waste food challenge. Banana and granola grab and go muffins. These taste super yummy. I used a nutty granola which really complemented the banana and coconut flavours. You could substitute the granola with desiccated coconut or oats or a mix of all three. I thought the baking might make the granola really hard on the teeth but it actually helped to soften it a little. These muffins are great for lunchboxes or as a breakfast on the go. 2 teaspoons baking powder. 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda. Turquoi...

Banana and Nutella milkshake - Turquoise Lemons

http://www.turquoiselemons.com/2/post/2012/02/banana-and-nutella-milkshake.html

No waste food challenge. Banana and Nutella milkshake. This is one of our favourite ways to use up spotty bananas and considering it is World Nutella Day. So decided by Ms Adventures in Italy. I thought I would share this with you all. All you need is a banana, glass of milk and blob of Nutella. Peel and break up the banana, add the milk and Nutella and mix it all up in a blender. So simple but my boyfriend Greg adores it. This is also one of my suggestions for the February No Waste Food Challenge. Creat...
