For the love of food
It’s Secret Recipe Club time again! This month I was extra excited because I was assigned to the blog of our host Jane. Over on The Heritage Cook, Californian Jane seems to be as in love with cooking and baking as I am. She has a bit more experience than me and shares lots of […]
It has been a relatively quiet week here after having a lovely visitor at the end of last week but of course that doesn’t mean there hasn’t been any baking. Stay tuned for the recipe for these cinnamon buns. They smelled so amazing when I took them out of the oven I had to have […]
Morning everyone. I’m not home today, I’m off visiting Kirstin from Miss Foodie and sharing around my classic lemon slice. Please pop in and say hi and share a square.
Usually, recipe creation in the Claire K Creations kitchen is a solo affair and on the odd occasion I have a little help from the husband. I don’t mind it this way, I sort of get into a kitchen ‘zone’ before I know it I’m gobbling down something delicious which, if a baked good, is […]
When I made brown sugar walnut biscuits, Will announced that they were the best biscuits he’d ever had. Ever since, whenever I ask him what sort of cookies I should re-stock the jar with, they are his answer. He still can’t quite catch on that I can’t make the same thing every week or I’ll […]
We had a pretty quiet weekend. Ok I say we but I really mean I. Will spent much of the weekend tending to our garden that now could almost win an award for its perfect hedges. Who knew my man was such a pro? I did intend to do a little DIY myself having finally […]
Did you know that this week is International Scone Week? Ok so it’s not really technically a thing, it was created by Celia from Fig Jam and Lime Cordial and a few of her blogging friends when a few years ago, they all realised they were baking scones at the same time. Never one to […]
I’m going to let you in on a little secret… these cupcakes are a-ma-zing. It’s a secret because these banana cupcakes with honey and cinnamon icing are my Secret Recipe Club creation for August. I took a couple of months off while we were away/moving but I am back into it with a bang. In […]
Surprise surprise look what I’ve got for you today… another lemon recipe! Last time I posed the question of what should I bake next with my luscious lemons, the lovely Katy Potaty suggested lemon and ginger shortbread. I don’t like to disappoint so these are for you Katy. These aren’t shortbread in the traditional sense […]
I am writing today’s post from my very own office all set up with a desk and everything. We scoured IKEA for 3 hours yesterday then spent a good 3 hours building in the afternoon and no I am officially set up. No more moving from one random spot to the other around the house, […]
If you’ve been visiting here for a while then you’ll know that Will is quite into golf. He’s so into it that he’ll get up at 5am on the weekend in the freezing cold. There aren’t many things that would make me do that. Seeing as we’ve been overseas then moving house and getting lots […]
I had no plans to share Saturday’s baking adventures as I truly thought the’d be sub-par on first attempt but my first ciabatta rolls were most definitely blog-worthy. On Friday I started preparing Kevin (the sourdough starter) for an outing but on Friday night, when I read Celia’s recipe, I realised I’d have to get up at […]
