Okay so it has been AGES since I last posted and I am SO sorry! It has been a slightly ridiculous week. Actually really crazy. I took on a few extra shifts at the new cafe I’m working at. The days are pretty long and intense in that hot little kitchen, but I got to bake a few of my own recipes to sell in store, which was really fun! … Continue reading →

Hello blogging world! As some of you may remember, I announced at the end of last year that I will soon be moving to self-hosting Butter on my own site. Well. Buying a domain name and paying for hosting was one thing. Setting up an actual site is a whole other ball game. Life’s pretty easy over here at WordPress.com. You don’t have to think about much, you just blog and … Continue reading →

So this cake started with a few brown bananas I had in the fruit bowl that were staring me down all of last week. Because, just FYI, I am a little bit weird, and I have this thing with textures. Like, I will only eat bananas if they’re green. Once they’ve got a few brown spots on them, it’s over. There’s no way I’m going near them. They’re just way … Continue reading →

So I am DONE. No more school for me. Ever. I will never, ever, have to study again (unless I am crazy enough to go back to school at some stage in the future. Not that I think school is crazy. I loved school. But I need a break. Before I lose my mind). I will never have to sit a test or exam again. I will never have to … Continue reading →

These bars. Are. Amazing. I’m really sorry about the photos though. They aren’t great. Frankly, they’re quite boring. I was having a long day. I had baked quite a lot and needed to photograph a few things in succession. Any small fiber of creativeness I possess had been sucked out of me by this point, and I just wanted to get a few shots of these bars and pack up … Continue reading →

I’m sick. I sound like a seal. Crossed with a man. Crossed with a teenage kid who’s voice is breaking. It’s so hot. My head feels groggy, my nose is stuffy and I have the sexiest seal cough ever. What are you like when you are sick? Do you take the day off work or school? Do you stay home in bed? Or on the couch, in your pyjamas, surrounded … Continue reading →

Life is funny sometimes. Like when you make an effort and spend time doing your hair in the morning and no one comments on it. But then you don’t wash it for a few days and twist it back haphazardly to hide that it’s dirty and everyone tells you it looks great. Like when you really really like a boy but he doesn’t even realize that you exist. But then … Continue reading →

Spring is here! It’s going to be warm soon! Here’s how I can tell: 1. Mosquitoes are back. And biting. Love them. 2. I no longer have to layer up like an onion with jumpers and knits and coats and two or three pairs of socks and scarves and beanies just so that I can go outside. Maybe I can even pack up my winter coats for the year? That’s … Continue reading →

Today is going to be a little bit different, because the story behind why I made these bars is a sad one. My dear friend’s mum, Sophie, passed away last week. She was an amazing woman, full of life, love, energy, positivity and strength. She left this world before her time, and will be greatly missed by many. I made this pie in Sophie’s memory, and gave it to my … Continue reading →

So we were supposed to make brownies at culinary school the other day. The class was called Cakes and chocolate mud cake and brownies were on the agenda. Everyone was excited to make the brownies, to eat them, and to take them home. Come 12.30pm and we found out our teacher had to cover another class, so we were stuck with a substitute. And as soon as everyone saw that … Continue reading →
