A return to the revamped Fuzzy Duck, Nuneaton
The last time I was invited to the Fuzzy Duck in Nuneaton, I ended up writing you a bit of a comedy post on what it's like when a bunch of food bloggers go out together. That was partly because it was back in the early days of going to blogger...

Getting festive with Arthur Price Cutlery
Now, I may not be good at cooking, but I do love to have people over - especially at Christmas time. There's nothing quite like getting all the posh crockery and cutlery out and dressing up a table nicely for an evening of food and fun (and wine,...
