Welcome back foodie!


Thank you so much for your patience whilst I go about my daily life, and for checking back so often for a new post. Believe me, there has been plenty delicious goings on in my kitchen over the last month but never enough time to write about them.

I hope you enjoy this special Eating Out edition as a welcome return after a break. Not that I've been breaking; I've been sensationally busy at work and making lots of wonderful and exciting life progress but that's for another day...

I'm also a big soup lover, and when I make vegetable soup I can't help but think of delicious ways to make it into something extra special. It usually involves something deliberately saucy, and what better sauce than curry? And so, the various green curries of Col's kitchen are born.

Welcome back foodie!

My two weeks of freedom are sadly coming to an end *sob* so I thought I'd get myself back into gear before work by giving you lovely readers a tasty update.

A few weeks ago I was swamped with training duties at work and incredibly stressed, so I was constantly looking for ways to brighten my evenings with my husband. Following an accidental yet brilliant seat move in the office I got chatting with some fellow food loving colleagues and the idea for Empanadas evolved...
