In my house, nothing screams Winter more than a good bowl of soup… And because in my soups I only use seasonal ingredients I bring you a Pumpkin and Chestnut soup inspired by Martha Stewart… I saw the recipe and I couldn’t resist this delicious combination… Origin of pumpkin soup You know I like to…
Soups
Easy Spanish Gazpacho
I do love to cook… but with this incredible heat, it’s been very hard to approach the cooker… So we’ve had an excuse to visit a lot of the local restaurants – always on the lookout for new ideas too! While at home, a lot of our meals have been made outside on the BBQ…
I’m back… with a pumpkin and ginger soup!!!
The New Year is here and I’m back from a well deserved rest with my family back home… I hope you all had a brilliant time over the holiday period and are ready for a fantastic year ahead. I sure am! Like promised I want to show you what I was up to in…
My French onion soup
Shorter days: this is one of the things I dislike most about Winter. I really don’t like that it’s already dark when I leave work. It looks like the day is over and there’s nothing else to do but to go to sleep. Not like Summer when you still feel like doing lots before locking…
Creamy scallop chowder

Fish and seafood soup with Ditalini pasta

Leek and Potato Soup
Although I like soup, for some reason I end up not cooking it that often.I really don’t know why as my boyfriend also likes it. So to make it a change, today I cooked my favourite – leek and potato soup. This Winter I have tried to cook soups a lot more and I’m impressed…
Corn Egg Drop Soup
And here I go again with my Asian cuisine 🙂 this time Chinese inspired… I like it a lot and I have introduced it to my boyfriend as he was not familiar with it. And guess what? Now he’s also a fan 🙂 Sometimes we order in from a local restaurant. Our first meals in…
