I got really excited at Pak’nSave the other day. Every time I see a beef roast on the cheap, I buy it without really thinking.      I always slow cook my beef roasts, so this one has been sitting in my freezer for a few weeks now while I thought of ways to make it slightly Read more...

Skinny Soup

Posted 1:43pm Sunday 16th August 2015 by Sophie Edmonds

I make a lot of cakes. Pastries, slices, anything baked really. I even have a site called Sophie Likes Cake. You can probably guess that because of this I would also consume a lot of cake.
