Thick, Chewy Granola Bars … you left us smitten!
“Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.” Ralph Waldo Emerson A visit to Smitten Kitten always leaves me enamoured and charmed. Deb’s always got something that holds my attention. It’s often simple comfort food. Beautiful brownies, awesome cakes, or then something as simple as these thick, chewy granola bars. The beauty of her posts is the passion she does them with. She bakes from scratch, her commentary is engaging, and her posts have brilliant photographs. These granola bars, adapted from King Arthur Flour, had her readers, including me, quite smitten. For me, the bars scored a 10/10 in every aspect – health, taste, looks, versatility. Above all they were kid…

APPLE CRISP … still nostalgic about London & FBC!
“It is remarkable how closely the history of the apple tree is connected with that of man.” Henry David Thoreau This is a beautiful season. … festive warmth, mulled spices, apples, nuts, dried fruit…add to it memories of a great trip to London, and it’s all magic. I fell in love with Autumn when it arrived, and thought that was my most favourite season. Now that December is happily upon us, I think I love it even more than Autumn. It’s the season to be jolly! This is a short crisp post about the apple crisp I made on my return from the UK last week. I am busy these…

OLIVE OIL BROWNIES with ROASTED ALMONDS…Mmmmm delicious!
“Chocolate is the only aroma-therapy I need.” Jasmine Heiler There was nothing for the kids school snack box, so I thought I’d do a batch of sandwiches.
