Recipe For Sweet Potato Soup

Recipe For Sweet Potato Soup by Tandy Sinclair

For years all I have wanted is a garden with an abundance of vegetables. This has happened in fits and starts, with no real plan taking place. It is not for lack of wanting, but more about lack of effort. But this year, I have promised myself that 2015 will end with the plan well established. The first part of the plan was clearing…

Recipe For Orange & Ginger Marmalade

Recipe For Orange & Ginger Marmalade by Tandy Sinclair

In December of last year the audio stopped working on my phone. This made it very frustrating to take calls as I had to locate my headset and plug it in to be able to talk in private. I bought a bluetooth headset hoping it would make it easier, but the battery life was shocking and so that went straight back to the store. I took my…

Interview With Nida Deguitene

Interview With Nida Deguitene by Tandy Sinclair

After paging through the most amazing recipe book I really wanted to meet Nida. Sadly she was in South Africa at the same time that we were in Scotland, and so I really missed out on what I knew would be a fantastic conversation. Luckily for me, Nida agreed to do an interview for my blog.Who has been the most influential person in…

Recipe For Leek And Cheese Soda Bread

Recipe For Leek And Cheese Soda Bread by Tandy Sinclair

I could collapse right now from pure exhaustion. As I type this (21st September) it has been a week since I slept well. On the Sunday night that we were in Oban I did not get a very good night’s sleep. I think this has to do with a combination of factors. The first being the amount of light that came into the room from the hotel…

Recipe For Sponge Fingers

Recipe For Sponge Fingers by Tandy Sinclair

There is something about being a repeat customer at a car dealer that makes it worthwhile staying with the same manufacturer. My first car was a Golf, and when that was stolen I went straight out and bought a Ford, without looking at any other car. I liked the tail lights! Dave then bought me a Fiat and after that, my first Hyundai. I…

A Taste Of Israel, Nida Deguitene

A Taste Of Israel, Nida Deguitene by Tandy Sinclair

Nida has graciously answered interview questions and I had every intention of posting them first, and then doing the review of her book, A Taste Of Israel. I was just going to quickly page through the recipe book to get a sense of who Nida is, but I could not put it down from page 1. The photography is amazing and Nida has written…

Recipe For Apple And Jam Bars by Tandy Sinclair

apple and blueberry jam bars – Extracted from Sweet by Sam Linsell (Struik Lifestyle)As you will see from the ingredients listed above, Sam uses almond flour in her recipe. Once again I was only going to make half of the recipe and I was not so keen on spending R117 for 350g of almond flour when I only needed 22.5 grams. I cannot…

Recipe For Hot Chocolate

Recipe For Hot Chocolate by Tandy Sinclair

We always pay for our airline tickets with our credit card, and this entitles us to standard insurance cover. However, this cover does not include lost baggage insurance and so I take a top up for Dave and I. The reason for this is that to replace our clothes overseas would cost a fortune as not only is one Rand worth 5 pence, clothes…

Recipe For No Churn Coffee Ice Cream

Recipe For No Churn Coffee Ice Cream by Tandy Sinclair

One of my earliest memories was gathering in my Grandmother’s dining room, with her aunts, to prepare food for the Jewish holidays. Everything was made from scratch on the day, from the gefilte fish to the bread, to the roast chicken and all the other tasty bites we would enjoy. The table would be laid in the lounge as we were a large…
