Oh hey friends! Happy autumn, fall, apple/pumpkin and all things cosy season! Every year, the blogger in me can’t resist but post a supper autumn-y recipe, after seeing hundreds of images of pumpkins and apples, how could I NOT share a recipe for one of these ingredients? It would make me a blogger who doesn’t care about seasons, right?
Read MoreI know it’s been a very long time friends and I had genuine intentions to post this recipe a few weeks ago but as you probably noticed, summer happened and it made me postpone a few blog posts on my editorial calendar #sorrynotsorry.
Read MoreWe’ve had two to three good consecutive weeks of very nice weather and it finally feels like summer in London. I have to admit that some days were very briefly interrupted by a few hours of rain but nothing that lasted too long to bother us. I am so excited about this summer! We’ve planned a few trips and I am going to spend quite a lot of time in Morocco. I really miss those school days when my mom and I would spend two months in Morocco every year. By the end of the summer I was so sad to go back to Brussels, every single time! This year between travelling and work, I will be spending about three weeks in Rabat and Marrakech in July and August. I haven't spent that much time in Morocco in the summertime for years, so it’s safe to say that I am beyond excited.
Read MoreI came back from Morocco a few days ago and this blog post couldn’t be better timed! Because, I have to tell you, this trip reminded me how beautiful my country is and I don’t think I mention it enough on this blog.
Read MoreI feel like I should say something along the lines of “happy almost spring” but it feels wrong because it’s freezing and it’s been snowing for the past two days. Oh well! The good part is, I did notice some beautifully blossoming trees in the streets of London these past weeks, so everything is not lost friends. I have even managed to put my hands on some Narcissus, which by the way I don’t think are particularly pretty but I have to admit that they do smell nice (and we do share the same name)!
Read MoreBook publication countdown is starting soon, by soon, I mean NEXT WEEK. Is it too early? When is it socially acceptable to start counting down the days to “an important event”? Casablanca will be out in the world in 10 weeks (but who’s counting?) and I will NOT stay calm. Did you know that you can now preview the book on amazon? There are about 10 recipes for you to see so you can have a feel of the book! If you live in the UK, please, please don’t forget to preorder your copy. And for my friends in the US, Canada, Australia, Germany, Holland and Spain, hang on with me, I will announce the publication dates for your countries ASAP.
Read MoreWhat’s a Buddha bowl? Because I have been seeing many of them on the Internet these past 2 years and I still can’t figure out what it essentially is. I got the basic concept behind it: compartmenting your salad but then, is that it? Is there no other requirement to achieve a Buddha bowl? I really want to know.
Read MoreFor as long as I can remember, my mom, my brothers and I used to spend our summer holidays in Morocco. That was the sacred rule until I started doing internships and working, when I had to start counting my days off, and all of sudden, life got all serious and complicated #adultlife.
Read MoreHappy Friday and happy first day of the last month of the year! Can you believe it’s already December? How do you feel about 2018? I have a good feeling about it, but it’s probably because I have this weird habit of thinking that years which end with even numbers will always be better… So let’s see how 2018 turns out. Rendez-vous next year!
Read MoreHello from Tokyo where we’ve just spent the craziest few days. We arrived in Japan a week ago and it feels like we’ve been here for a whole month. It’s been so condensed and memorable, I wouldn’t even know where to start if had to describe our whole trip, I guess unforgettable is the word.
Read MoreRecipe development and blogging requires “a bit” of creativity. You want to make sure you come up with recipes your readers will like, but you also want to ensure that the recipes are not too hard to follow; don’t require challenging ingredients, are seasonal and super tasty. I have a file in my computer with about a thousand recipe “thoughts” where I have the most random recipe ideas such as Moroccan gyoza? (the question mark means I don’t think it’s a good idea) and Harissa and lemon chicken traybake! (the exclamation mark means I think it’s a great idea).
Read MoreI told you, pumpkin was bound to happen on the blog at some point this autumn. Nobody is complaining about that, right? It’s the season after all and yes, like all my other blogger friends I will make sure to post a new pumpkin recipe every year.
Read MoreNever start a new TV show before going to bed, it’s the worst! When the show is good, you can’t help but press play for the next episode and the next thing you know, it’s 3 am and your brain is navigating somewhere between auto-pilot sleepiness and excitement for “who is the murderer?”
Read MoreSummer is not “officially” over, I know, but apple season has kicked off and we have to make the most out of them! As long as I am not using anything pumpkin as an ingredient, I won’t be blamed for embracing autumn a few weeks in advance, right? This makes me interestingly aware that before I realize it, it will soon be the end of 2017! Hello 31/12/2016’s resolutions, where have you been? We were supposed to be good this year. Oh well!
