Baking is my escape from everything. With a glass of red wine in hand, a spotlessly clean Cherry Red KitchenAid and a shelf full of cookery books I embark on baking adventures most evenings (after Eastenders of course!). So that explains the baking part of this blog and all the baking related events and activities I’m getting involved in.
So why the botanical? I used to own two flower shops and I still love flowers and plants. I am also obsessive about their nutritional values. I think it comes from having children and wanting to make sure I know exactly what is going into their perfect, little bodies and why.
For centuries people have used ingredients from across the botanical spectrum and the recipes on my blog are based on those I find appealing and tasty, or that are seasonal and interesting. I’ve tried to explain what I know about their nutritional values but please don’t just take my word for it as I’m not an expert. There's also a few foodie escapades on the blog including adventures of my own attempts at growing various botanicals.
