This is the first I’ve ever added a menu to my blog but this mornings poached eggs were so dam good that I have to share. The secret to the poached egg is a tip from MasterChef so sadly I can’t claim credit for this recipe, but here is what you need; some glad wrap [...]
I have pined over it for all this time, but now I have had enough time to realise that I don’t actually want one. At least not the first generation one… I think many people, myself included, have been wondering where the hell this device fits into your life. How will it fit? Will it [...]
