Winter is well and truly here. I’m still wearing shorts religiously. Have I ever mentioned how much I dislike wearing pants? I digress.

Medicinal Marrow Muffins
Is it just me or is Monday the perfect day to get your procrasti-bake on? I’m on swot-vac and with my next exam not until next Friday I’m not feeling much urgency yet.

Most gluten free pancake recipes are thick and fluffy, as they are easier to flip and if you do find crepe-style instructions, they use buckwheat flour (mum doesn’t like this) or conventional pre-mixed GF flours (full of refined ingredients and usually additives too!).
