Organic Dutch Oven Baked Bread {Recipe}

I’ve been really excited about my latest baking expedition, which is of baking bread in a Dutch Oven, or a cast iron pot. A Dutch Oven is a covered earthenware or cast-iron container for cooking casseroles. I have two of these and I had no idea how easy baking bread could be until I tried…

Mild Thai Yellow Curry {Toddler Approved}

A few days ago, I decided to make things easier for myself by cooking up a one-pot green curry for the whole family. As the ready-made green curry paste is too spicy for Savya, I had to create something separate for him. I used 5 different vegetables, coconut milk and curry powder with nice chunks…

Terrible Two’s! Tantrums in Full Effect.

With all the advice you get as an expecting parent and as a new parent, nothing prepares you for the tantrums. They’re just tiny, cute, angry AF people with the rage of a million Spartans looking for vengeance. RAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!! You try to reason with them. NOPE. You try to bribe them. NOPE. You try to…

Porcini Mushroom and Cavolo Nero Linguini {Recipe}

This bowl of deliciousness is actually a pasta I randomly made out of necessity for lunch one day. It was the day before we went for our weekly shop, and the fridge was looking sparce. I was out of most things except for a bit of cavolo nero (black kale) and leftover raw red bell…

Butternut Squash Lasagna {Recipe}

Okay folks, ask and you shall receive. I’ve now pretty much perfected this dish to my own preferences, but obviously, you can do whatever you want with it. While I use spinach, you can always sub for kale. I wouldn’t sub the butternut squash though – there’s really nothing like it. If you’re in England,…

INNISFREE – It’s Real Squeeze Mask {Aloe}

My mostly dry combination skin is going crazy at the moment. It’s become oily and there is redness and breakouts galore. I blame it on my fluctuating hormones. UGH. I needed to balance my skin, but clay masks just aren’t doing enough at the moment. Although I probably shouldn’t have, I decided to take a…

Sunlight and Scarves? YAS!

Sunlight in the UK is rare. When it does pop out to say hello, all of England goes abuzz in a good mood. I mean, who doesn’t love a little Vitamin D? Savya and I soaked up some sun in the back garden, but not before I bundled him up. I bought 2 new scarves…

The Nepalese Hindu Festival of Dashain has come and gone this past week. It is also known as Vijaya Dashaimi and Dusshera in India. It has been fondly dubbed as “Nepali Christmas” or “Nepalismas” in a effort to explain the festivals significance in a familiar sense to those whom are unfamiliar with it. Dashain is…

Fresh Faced Friday: Bioré Deep Pore Charcoal Cleanser

So what’s my biggest pet peeve? Blackheads and large pores. I’ve been trying everything I can to minimize my pores and make my skin as clean as possible. The older we get, the harder it gets to achieve this, so regular maintenance is everything. A cleanser is used to remove make-up, dirt, and impurities from…

Tasty Tuesday: The Sukuti Life Part 2: Nepali Sukuti & Butternut Squash Stew Recipe

When I think of Nepal, I obviously don’t think of it as the most non-Nepalese do. Though born and brought up in America, thoughts of Nepal remind me of intimate memories. Flashbacks to singular moments that held more importance than I realised at the time. These memories include my Maternal Grandmother’s hands; walking alongside her,…
