While searching last night for a work document saved to an unknown destination on my laptop, I stumbled across a page of dreamily-written notes secretly stored during the witching hours of a black-shining night in Florida. I closed my eyes and there were memories, memories. The low murmur of voices around a hotel pool at [...]

Banana All-Bran Muffins For My Dad

by Hannah on May 8, 2012

As I was editing the above and below photos of the Banana All-Bran Muffins I recently made for my Dad, I started to feel strangely emotional. Mind you, I wasn’t getting teary over the muffins themselves. Sure, they’re deliciously soft-yet-hearty-and-healthy treats packed with fibrelicious All-Bran Fibre Toppers and sweet ripe bananas, but they’re not quite [...]

My housemate and I had our rental inspection today (nailed it! “Excellent” ticked all through the report; pat on the back, pip pip!) and, as a result, there’s space to move in my room for the first time in six months. To be clear, my room has never been unclean (I’m far too paranoid about [...]

No-Bake Pear Hemp Rice Puff Treats

by Hannah on April 28, 2012

We’re only two-thirds through autumn, and yet I’m already spending my nights curled up on my bed reading with my thermal socks on and a scarf tucked into my jumper. Last night, I was on the phone to my brother and mentioned that I don’t know what I’ll do when it’s actually winter and I’ve [...]

No-Bake Caramel Coconut Ginger Slice

by Hannah on April 22, 2012

Burnished gold. Sweet caramel. Chewy coconut and sesame seeds. Spicy ginger. This Caramel Coconut Ginger Slice is easy to make, and even easier to eat (as long as you like crystallised ginger). The sweetness of caramel and white chocolate is balanced by the spicy kick of a full half cup of crystallised ginger, and the [...]

It’s rare for me to capture moments in my life where my mind is content to stop whizzing, whirring, fretting, leaping and cavorting. At times, I find myself wishing I were a calmer person, that I could find an island of placidity within my self to curl up on and just be. But then again, [...]

Spicy Vegetable Lentil Soup, To Keep Going

by Hannah on April 8, 2012

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for your kind words following my last post. It helps to think of so many people sending messages of support and sympathy to Jerome’s family and friends. I’m grateful that my words were able to convey even a little of the fantastic fellow Jerome was – and [...]

Raw Vegan Chocolate Brownie Bites

by Hannah on March 27, 2012

I finally did it. I finally succumbed. I don’t mean that I decided to throw caution to the wind and use all of my savings to fill my no-pets-allowed rental apartment with puppies of all shapes and size. Puppies as far as the eye can see! Magical adorable long-lashed toilet-trained fluffy excitable puppies! If only. [...]

Fancypants Magic Bars, and Bonus Lorikeets

by Hannah on March 19, 2012

If I was up for harmless lying on my blog, I’d tell you about how I used to believe in magic. How I spent hours sitting in the shady green-gold corners of my parents’ garden, keeping watch for glittering fairies. How I baked cookies for Santa to eat after coming down the chimney, because surely [...]

I have of late, but wherefore I know not, lost all my granola mirth. Don’t get me wrong; I still adore my Spiced Fig, Pepita, and Molasses Granola of Your Dreams, my Jewelled Cranberry and Coconut Granola, and my hyperbolically-best-ever Maple Tahini Coconut Granola. Last weekend, though, I didn’t want to make any of those [...]
