So this salad has quite a clean feel to it, with a sharp bite, definitely summery and really basic to make. I know gorgonzola is a bit strong and that a lot of people aren’t too excited about it, but it really makes this dish. If, however, you feel like it is really too much, … Continue reading
For a long time I wondered what Burrata was. I’ll admit that I thought it was just a big mozzarella before I tried it. But it is so much more than that. It is a little tougher on the outside than mozzarella and on the inside it is so much creamier. I first discovered that in … Continue reading
For those who have already looked at my blog know that sport-wise my main focus is on American Football. A big reason for this might be because I have started to find it a bit boring and frustrating. I will go into more detail in a different post. One element I do love, and I … Continue reading
So roasting vegetables has always been fun, especially when wanting to create a mediterranean flavour. Great for summer. But when I try to picture this dish in a setting where I have had it, or something similar, it is not in one of the Med countries I’ve visited. Instead there is a beautiful little Cafe … Continue reading

Why include this as part of my food blog you might think? It doesn’t look particularly appetising and is really nothing special. How very right you are. BUT, the dish has a degree of sentimental value to me. While studying in Liverpool, where I did a year of International Journalism at John Moores, this was my staple … Continue reading
So, who doesn’t like a good, simple baked potato. And guess what? Sweet potato is just as good! Lovely for the summer as a sweeter flavour to offset something with a bit more of a zesty punch or something more spicy. It’s just a more creative flavour than your usual spud. At heart it is … Continue reading
One of my favourite dishes to eat both warm and cold, but it is quite a surprise it made it so far. For a long time I really disliked beetroot, until I decided to find a way to make myself like it. As simple as that. It was while I was living and studying in London … Continue reading
This last instalment of the Series: 2017 Draft Review Seahawks, follows [Part 1] and [Part 2] and is more of a novelty number. I will be looking at the predictions I did in my Draft Preview and giving myself a grade for analysis and accuracy. Personal draft Grade Individual Player Predictions (0/3) out of the three … Continue reading
This Post is going to be a more in depth look at the individual players chosen by the Seahawks in the 2017 Draft. It follows on from [Part 1], where I broadly outlined what the Seahawks had chosen and what grade I give them for this Draft Class. Noting that, judging by past experience, these … Continue reading
