After spending several relaxing days in Monopoli, we hopped back in our rental car and set off for the popular beach town, Polignano a Mare (only 15 minutes drive away). The atmosphere in both towns are on complete opposite ends of the Puglian scale. As soon as we arrived in Polignano a Mare, it quickly became obvious where […]
Whether there’s any real truth in it, they say you’re meant to ‘fuel up,’ or ‘carb load’ before a big running event. And that’s exactly what I did. The night before my last half-marathon race, I conjured up the best lasagne recipe yet. This lasagne is honestly so tasty and satisfying. It’s the perfect dish to treat yourself if you’re after […]

We wanted a more unusual beach destination, in SE Asia, with world-class dive sites (since we’re both keen divers). Also so we […]
You may have already guessed now, I’m a huge lover of nutritious, hearty salads, especially this Quinoa & Roast Vegetable Salad with Feta. It is so good! I’ve started including quinoa in a lot of my meals now. As well as really enjoying the nutty, chewy taste of these grains, they’re incredibly good for you. […]
I really could happily live off salads forever, especially this fig, feta and pancetta salad. If iceberg lettuce and greens are as far as your salad imagination goes, please allow me to enlighten you.
