Happy National Dog Day!

Get your volume on to listen to Scout singing the song of his people because he has to wait for Mack before he’s allowed his tooth chew. Brock just sits there like the good boy he is.

Rescued from the streets of Thailand, now living their best lives in God’s Own Country. Only complaining when you don’t save them some of your toast, or when you’ve not smoothed the wrinkles out of their dog bed. 😂

Absolutely not jumping on the bandwagon. This was another client request so thought I’d make use of the viral hashtag.

I had some for tea the other night. Then some more for pudding, natch. There was so much alcohol in it that it whooshed up my nose akin to wasabi. Super retro dessert that is now doing the rounds again cos someone famous talked about it on TikTok that one time.

I have two tiramisu stories from days of yore: that time in the late 90s when Mum and Dad went on holiday and left me and my brothers at home. During one of many house parties, the freezer (containing lots of puddings destined for a wedding) was accidentally turned off and we had to rapidly eat a lot of tiramisu before it spoilt. Mum was fuming. Probs would’ve been more fuming if she knew what actually went on at those house parties 😂

Another memory was making trays upon trays of true Italian tiramisu whilst volunteering at a music festival in Milan in 1999. We made it with thin biscuits rather than sponge fingers, and it had about 6 delicious layers. We sold massive portions to drunk people who ate it whilst dancing.

If you’re not all putting nasturtiums and left over veggies in your roast beef and hula hoop sandwiches then y’all need sort your life out.

*please don’t come at me*

Hare ragu, the fattest of fat pappardelle, roasted veggies from and a nasturtium cos they make everything so delicious.

Sustainably caught. First time cooking hare. I didn’t want to try it, but I did and it was delicious. And I immediately wanted to text my dad to tell him. He would’ve loved knowing I’d made this. And probs would’ve been jels.

When you want to eat your tea, eat cake, and watch TV but you’ve told yourself you can’t until you’ve put something on social media and finished the VAT returns (had Dawn on my case allll week 🙄😩)

Pro tip: make your tea on a colourful plate and take a pic of it - ready made content! 😃 Follow me for more content tips 😂😂

Pro cake eating tip: pretend you’ve got someone coming for tea so no one questions what’s happening with that second piece of cake.

P.S. this isn’t my normal tea. This is me cramming in a load of veggies having eaten mostly toast for the last week.

Our cheap and cheerful sandwich buffet for 100+ delegates attending the Skills Summit, part of the Creative Cities Convention at Bradford City Hall at the beginning of May.

Very grateful to have had Sarah’s help for this 2-day event - she kept me organised, calm and sane whilst I was trying to spin many plates and the rest of the team were on the film shoot in York.

Thank you to Three Little Birds Bakery for the awesome and DELICIOUS branded cookies. What do you mean “how many did I eat?” That’s none of your business 😬😬🙈🙈😂😂

I KNOW you’re getting bored of pictures of buffets now but we have to keep on top of this socmed business diary stuff! It’s our only advertising at the moment so if you’re sick of seeing pics of sarnies then scroll on by but please do check out anyone we’ve tagged or mentioned as that’s just a nice thing to do. ❤️

Congrats to all the students graduating, thanks for booking us for your do and we hope to see you on a local shoot soon!

Left Bank Leeds is an awesome venue! Been trying to think of a reason to host an event there? Maybe a supper club?! Or maybe a dog party?! 🐕🐶🤷🏻‍♀️

Getting creative with utensil pots and serving bowls at the in Hebden Bridge in April. That’s a vase of ice cream 😂💐 Don’t worry - we thoroughly washed it first!

We provided cold lunches, hot dinners and pudding for participants on a retreat for female leaders in the music and events industry.

Beautiful venue (albeit limited in ice cream serving bowls), lovely group, even lovelier organisers, fab setting (might try book it for a holiday 😂 - that would defo be a staycation) and an awesome veggie menu that I got no photographic evidence of. Except these mid-prep veggie burger pics.

Also, interesting only for the caterers/chefs amongst our followers: I encountered a celery averse client - our first one! (they are highly elusive). Tbh I was starting to think the celery allergy was a myth!

Thanks to Rachel from Brighter Sound for booking us. ❤️
