I am a bit late posting up my plans for this week … mainly due to my first kitchen disaster: a bout of food poisoning. As much as I hate to blame my own culinary skills for anything, I fear that a night of intense sickness during the early hours of Sunday morning – from which […]

Week 12 – some healthy eating (and the odd biccie!)
