Made-It Monday: The ‘Real’ Cake
And here it is, behold: the actual cake that last week was the practice for 🙂 Tis a gluten-free apricot jam cake, recipe tweaked a little from last week (and still not perfect, but better than it was) filled and iced with Italian meringue buttercream, flavoured with pistachios, mashed strawberries and rosewater. Decorated, as per

Why The Ancient Greeks Couldn’t See Blue
Stumbled across this video earlier in the week and thought it was interesting enough to share. The video sliiiiightly simplifies the situation – I actually did a paper on this during university! – but it’s a clear enough introduction to the topic if it’s not something you’re familiar with. So.

Different Things You Need To Know Before Writing
I was chatting with Liana on the weekend about #SekritNovel, which for whatever reason is playing on my mind again (look, I’ve learned not to ask these questions. My brain dwells on the books it’s interested in at the time, and I just have to run with that), and we got to a point in

Don’t tell Kickstarter, but the book that was just launched there? Yeah. I still need to finish it >.< Thank goodness my non-writing deadlines are finally wrapping up long enough for me to pause and draw breath and consider maybe thinking about writing eventually at some point 😀 But seriously, I have six weeks to

Made-It Monday: A Practice Cake
This week, a practice cake. I needed to test out the recipe before using it for a Big Paid Cake ™ so here we are. I’m glad I tested it first, as it does need a couple more tweaks. The verdict in the staffroom was that it was great – but notably, there were still

Tea: What I’m Drinking
So, my mum is running a high tea soon and needed suggestions for pass-the-parcel gifts (because OBVIOUSLY this is a thing you do at high tea!), and being the practical sort of person that I am (!) I suggested…. tea? 😀 There’s a local place that sells individual sachets for $1.50, which is a great
