http://polarbearkoalapanda.blogspot.com/2014/11/kittens-and-cubs.html
Wednesday, November 26, 2014. On 23 July 2014, Mr Grey and I became parents to a tiny howling red faced boy. Four months on, he is no longer so tiny but he does still turn red when he howls for food. He is a real game changer, this little boy. The last four months have been filled with exhaustion, panic, crazy love, happiness, worry and poop. So much poop. At the relatively advanced age of four months, there is so much he can do. He loves looking at patterns and can lie in his cot staring at random c...

Thursday, January 9, 2014. Last night I cooked pasta. I made the sauce, I boiled the pasta then mixed it. Mr Grey got home shortly thereafter and we ate. This morning I realised that it was the first time since Mr Grey and I got married that I made pasta all by myself. See, I cook all manner of other dishes by myself. But for some reason, in our household, pasta has always been two person job. Mr Grey boils the noodles; my job is usually the sauce. I love those moments. Links to this post.

Tuesday, August 4, 2015. I'm mildly horrified thinking about it now, but I think the friend who'd just given birth had to intervene and calm me down.*). 25, their ovaries and eggs are still 40. There are lots of things you can run away from, but I've learnt that it's really hard to run away from your own biology. I have really wonderful and understanding friends.

Monday, December 8, 2014. It takes one to know one. Scene: Mr Grey and I are watching baby squawk and kick his legs furiously. Me: You know dear, I think baby is going to grow up to be such a naughty boy. Mr Grey: No he's already naughty! He just doesn't have the ability to carry out his naughty schemes yet.

lux: de novo: Brown butter blueberry muffins
http://polarbearkoalapanda.blogspot.com/2014/07/brown-butter-blueberry-muffins.html
Tuesday, July 1, 2014. Brown butter blueberry muffins. This is a recipe good enough to have been reproduced on two baking blogs. I used the version from here. Primarily because the measurements are British - in grams and cups - thank goodness! Converting a recipe from American measurements to British isn't difficult but if someone has already done the work for you, why reinvent the wheel? Brown Butter Blueberry Muffins. For the muffin mix:. 1 tsp vanilla essence. 1 1/2 tsp baking powder. Whisk the egg, e...

Wednesday, May 28, 2014. Maple Pecan Shortbread Bars ("it's just like pecan pie mum"). I cook often and bake rarely. So when I first posted about the NYT article on food and life which featured a beef stew and maple shortbread bars, I wholly expected myself to make only the beef stew and not ever get around to the shortbread bars. The recipe yields bars that taste somewhat like. Pecan pie - but my pecan pie loving mother was not fooled. 'Why does it look like that? MAPLE PECAN SHORTBREAD BARS. 2/3 cup re...

Saturday, March 22, 2014. There are two Matthews involved in the making of these lentils. One, the Matthew my sister brought over from Newcastle, who very kindly made vegetarian shepherd's pie and also very kindly left behind half a bag of lentils in my kitchen. So, due to the serendipity of having of lentils and a cookbook(! Turn up at my doorstep, I cooked lentils. Lentils with Poached Egg. The lentils freeze well and form the perfect base for many other weeknight meals so don't be shy about making an ...

Monday, February 2, 2015. I've been meaning and meaning to write. But the last few months have been spent moving the contents of my entire apartment into storage, looking after a small baby, looking for a tenant, getting said baby his vaccination, and preparing to move to another country with said baby. At 6 months, he has plump cheeks, firm plump arms and legs and fat little dimpled hands. He is squidgy and squashy and altogether delicious. He has dimples at his elbows and skin like cream. He has turned...
