Marvelous Macaroons




They're bright. They're beautiful. (and) They're tasty! Macaroons are a very fancy treat, perfect for afternoon tea or even just as a very self-indulgent snack. Above we have berry tea served with lemon and raspberry Macaroons - delightful. Below a slightly more indulgent chocolate Macaroon with the most beautiful natural yogurt and raspberry compote! Simple yet delicious.

Lazy Lunch..



The many delights of food! These are all styled with the help of my wonderful boyfriend. This colorful spread features some fantastic Irish products - Wicklow blue cheese and hand made Irish goats cheese, made extra special with other foodie delights - Italian salami and French olives among others, topped off with some fresh basil pesto. Mmmm..

Oats and More

Simple porridge oats made into something special. Thick creamy porridge topped with banana, wild flower honey and shavings of toasted brazil nut. Porridge is something most people think of as boring, but in reality it takes very little to make it into something very special! My favorite topping so far has been homemade crumble sprinkled over sliced banana, although alas I have no photos of it, as it didn't last long enough to take a picture! 



Playing with Spoons and Forks



Documenting my food and photography experiments, I'm going to blog about what Sheevs sees, not always terribly exciting, but hopefully sometimes a little interesting :)
