Let it be said that I absolutely love the digital disruption that’s going on of old-school, and let’s face it, old-fashioned industries right now. I’m sure you all saw this quote:
Where’s hot, and where’s not.
Another tale of blogging woe. And cake.
So…Christmas 2014 has been and gone.
We’ve been on a bit of a health kick this week, buying only fruit and veg from the Grainger Market in an effort to cut down on the norm of pasta/bread every single day.

If I had a quid for every time I’ve been asked, “where is the best afternoon tea in Newcastle”…I’d have a few quid to spend on another afternoon tea, of course. Can’t get enough!

Wednesday night is usually punctuated with the “top-up shop”, but not this week. Unsurprisingly, I’ve learned is that I eat way too much normally (who would have guessed…), and a “recommended” serving portion will fill me until the next meal – but the lack of exciting ingredients certainly makes the food bland.
