Poppycock & Other Creative Nonsense: September 2014
http://poppycockcreative.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Monday, 29 September 2014. Retro fabric design for this weeks Spoonflower contest and other fabric designs. It's been quite a while since I entered a Spoonflower fabric design contest. This weeks challenge was chairs and tables and in my back catalogue of designs I had a retro chair fabric which I always felt lacked a bit of oomph (see pic below) so I decided to rework it. Also reworked this last week was another of my butterfly waltz fabric designs. Tuesday, 23 September 2014. I was delighted to find ou...

Conversion Tables | The Ordinary Cook
http://theordinarycook.co.uk/conversion-tables-2
PR Queries and Privacy Policy. The vital thing is not to mix the measurements. If you weighed the first ingredient in grams then make sure you weigh the rest of the ingredients in grams. The metric to imperial conversions are taken from Delia Smith’s Complete Cookery Course and everything Delia does is right :). Apologies to my American readers – I have investigated the conversion of grams to cups and it seems fraught with the potential to go wrong, and I wouldn’t want that to happen. 1 litre 1 pint.

Peas and Love: March 2012
http://peasandloveblog.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, March 24, 2012. I'm not sure how widespread this is, but in Ireland breakfast rolls are quite popular. There was even a song about it that was somewhat popular. Normally they're filled with bacon, sausages and pudding. Maybe eggs. So it's a hash brown and ketchup roll for anyone following a vegan diet. That's nothing to turn your nose at, it's actually pretty good. But I thought I'd try a fancier one. Links to this post. Franks red hot sauce. Friday, March 23, 2012. With some oats and vegetable...

Peas and Love: February 2012
http://peasandloveblog.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 24, 2012. Spinach and Sun-dried Tomato Pancakes. When making vegan pancakes, there isn't really a whole lot to use up. No butter or eggs, and since I'm avoiding refined sugar there's none of that either. I did have a whole bag of baby spinach to use up though. And some white cabbage and stray bits of veg. So, I decided I'd make Spinach Pancakes. Get it into ya. Links to this post. Franks red hot sauce. Sunday, February 12, 2012. Roast Potatoes and Sun-dried Tomatoes. Serve it with whatev...

Friday, 27 February 2015. Fabric contest, more neckwarmers and the motorway mermaid. Strange sort of month, not the best so pleased it's nearly done. I very quickly knocked up a fabric design for this weeks Spoonflower contest as I've not joined in for ages, the subject was Cubist Cats. Loads of entries as cats are always popular, here's mine. More neckwarmers have been crocheted as it's still blooming freezing in the house and you can't have too many neckwarmers! Friday, 13 February 2015. Some renovatio...

Poppycock & Other Creative Nonsense: August 2015
http://poppycockcreative.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Friday, 28 August 2015. My fave veggie cafe is closing and other bits. The end of an era looms as my favourite veggie cafe in Bridlington, The Little Organic Bakery (formerly Bean There), is closing sometime in September. My friends who own it are going in to semi-retirement and looking forward to doing other things now they have their first grand child. It's a real shame but nothing stands still and I have some lovely memories of happy times with friends and food from my trips to the cafe over the years.
