Get Festive With Pumpkin Pie!

Those of you who follow me on twitter (@TheLittleWelsh) will know about my current obssession with Pumpkins, more specifically Pumpkin puree. Well folks, after weeks of hunting high and low I have finally got my greedy paws on several cans of the orangey goodness. I bought mine from Waitrose in West London, I'd recommend looking in bigger stores though as the smaller branches didn't seem to stock any. Word on the street is that Wholefoods Market stores are also stocking cans too and if you've got wonga to burn then check out Selfridges International food section.
 

[How To] Prepare A Pumpkin

Ahhhh the festive season of All Hallows' Eve is upon us, I love this time of year - not just for the perfectly legitimate excuse to dress up as a zombie and eat my weight in sugary treats but also because of the seasonal produce and the guaranteed glut of pumpkins filling the supermarket shelves! To be perfectly honest I've got pumpkins on the brain right now! While you may think a pumpkin is just for carving scary faces - they're also pretty delicious and can be thrown into both savoury and sweet dishes!

Have A Spooky But Sophisticated Halloween With Cocktails And Canapes

Halloween has always been a special day for me - silly costumes, sugary sweets and Halloween FOOD - whats not to love?! *insert evil cackle here* What other day of the year can you legitimately eat jelly spiders with gusto whilst wearing a witches hat and shrieking BOO without looking like a complete freak? When else can you boast of eating spicy bat wings, maggot risotto and cat sick pie without your sanity being questioned?

[COCKTAIL O'CLOCK] Elderflower And Apple Collins

Hello! After a small hiatus I am back and I am ready to blog. I had a few things going on which ate up all my time and energy and alas this small space got a tad neglected. I had some dramas to deal with plus some very exciting developments such as getting a fab new job and going for a relaxing and super sunny break to Turkey (posts coming soon!) 

 So to celebrate my return I thought I'd share a luscious and oh-so-English inspired cocktail with you - enjoy!
