When I settle down to read, its usually for at least a couple of hours so I always prepare a feast of drinks and nibbles to sustain me. It also means I don’t have to break my concentration to go and make food and drinks.

I have all sorts of favourites depending on what I’m reading, what mood I’m in, or even what time of year it is. My recipes come from all sorts of places, and from all over the world.  If its part of my own collection I post the full recipe and method here, if not it wiil be from a website, so there will be links.

For clarity, I receive absolutely nothing from anyone, any company, or any website for recommending recipes or drinks. These are recipes I and my family use, and drinks we make or purchase. 

So if you too like to nibble while you read, then I hope you enjoy the recipes I’ll post here. If you need help with converting UK and USA measurements, check our conversion page here.

And if you are in the mood for something other than tea or coffee to wash down those yummy treats, try this delicious tisane from T2:

A tantalising mix of cranberries, blueberries, dragon fruit and goji berries, your taste buds will be deliriously screaming for mercy! It’s sooo Fruitalicious, babe! 

This is one of my favourite drinks.
