Christmas love and Yuletide blessings from little old mum and her 3 kings 🌟🥰🎄👼💚🫶🏼

(This is the first time we’ve all been together for 2 1/2 years and the first pic I’ve had with all 3 of them since they were tiny…..now I’m the tiny one 😂)

One of the many spectacular meals we enjoyed at and this was just breakfast!
A delicious savoury rice porridge, a variation of which is commonly eaten for breakfast in many Asian countries….aka congee, in Thailand its “jok”. Served with a host of super yummy toppings, here we see fried tofu, mushrooms, aubergine, okra, leeks and green beans….all beautifully flavoured and coming together in a powerful taste sensation 👌 The component I loved the most was a fermented soyabean curd condiment that gave a wonderful umami-ness to the dish, sooooo good!!!
I am not generally a big breakfast eater but when presented with a table laden with such tasty nourishing goodness, it was impossible to resist!
This really was an unforgettable food experience from start to finish.
So much gratitude to both Pi Kob and her partner Pi Pun for feeding us extraordinarily well 🙏❤️🙏 They are both phenomenal chefs and I am incredibly inspired by their talent and passion 🤩

Loy Krathong spam!! This was how we began the Thai Mountain Foodie & Wellness Experience 2 weeks ago. And what an incredible 10 days it was! 🥰
Some absolutely beautiful experiences were shared by a very special group of people. I did manage to capture many of them, if not share as I was fully immersed and distracted by all the fabulous things we were doing….it’s all to come!

A massive thank you to , where we made our krathongs that morning, just the perfect way to kick off our time together. is an amazing social justice space and plant based cafe in Chiangmai. They are doing extremely important work supporting , an incredible charity that provides education and art therapy to refugees from Burma and the mountains of North Thailand. Please check them out when you’re in Chiangmai. They also serve super yummy Burmese food and drinks! As well as local handicrafts and a second hand clothes stall, it’s got everything 😍

In case you’re wondering, a krathong is the little basket made of banana leaves and adorned with flowers, candles and incense that we released in the river as an offering to the river goddess. It’s an opportunity to give thanks for all your blessings and release what you need to let go of. Such a beautiful custom and an honour to be a part of the celebrations 🙏💗

Equinox blessings and love beauties 💚💚💚
Taking this moment to reflect on my good fortune and the beautiful bounty that surrounds me 🙏🌱🍎
I spent the morning collecting these magnificent apples from the tree in my new front garden…there are so many! (Expect plenty of apple dishes to follow) I’m also preparing to do a liver & gall bladder flush which requires me to drink loads of apple juice. It always amazes me when we are provided with the very things we need, which we always are, if we just stop long enough to notice.
Giving thanks to Father Sky and Mother Earth for such wonderful nourishment and healing…. Aho, Ase, so much love and gratitude ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you Kob for all the fantastic work you do.

Same same but different!
The first pic was taken yesterday, my 49th birthday. The second, rather ridiculous pic, I found a few hours later in a message from my dearest friend , probably taken about 36 years ago. Spookily similar and lifetimes apart! It’s strange to think they are the same person. (I’ve clearly been refining the pose 😂)
Reflecting on the passage of time as I enter the last year of my forties….the years that have passed and the ones that lie ahead. It’s been a wild ride! So much beauty and pain in a life. And joy and love, so much love ❤️ I realise the exceptional good fortune of my situation this time around, immeasurable blessings come my way time and time again. As I’ve been told….I’m a full Grace case 🙏🏼💖
So I’m practicing being in the NOW and trying not to worry about what was or what might be. And seeking JOY wherever I can find it. Even in the wrinkles and grey hairs….especially in the wrinkles and grey hairs! Welcoming the next bit with wide open arms ❤️❤️❤️

Ok so I didn’t actually make these spectacular rainbow rolls myself, my friend Goong did (a super talented chef, she owns the most incredible cafe , more on her later) But rolls like these started the story. Along with Om & Bass who took this pic the other day. So I feel like I’ve come full circle somehow, or rather in a spiral and I’m sitting here looking at where I was 4 years ago. Rather proudly 😊
I’ve always been extremely passionate about food and I love feeding people. I never intended to make it my work though, it just kind of happened. Om & Bass and I were in Pai together in January 2018 and we were obsessed with these fresh spring rolls. So I recreated them when we got back to UK and she said “please make them for my festival!” I often say Yes! without really thinking about what I’m agreeing to and quite honestly I didn’t have a clue what I was doing. But come July that year, I was standing in a little gazebo I borrowed rolling rainbow roll after rainbow roll, looking out at the never ending queue of beautiful smiling hungry faces. I loved it!!! ❤️🧡💛💚💙 People kept asking me to cook for them and a few months later I was standing in my kitchen at 2am prepping mountains of food for a vegan market, looking at my new business card, realising that this is what I’m doing now! It has been so many steep learning curves with plenty of sleepless nights and f**k ups. It has also been a multitude of successes! I’ve learnt so much about food, cooking and myself. I’ve also learnt that I have the most incredible friends & family who believe in me so much they’ll drop what they’re doing to come and help when I’ve misjudged the work load (Sarada’s Army….you know who you are! I love and appreciate you so so much 🙏🏼❤️😘)
And our customers…..you guys rock big time!!!! So many generous, enthusiastic, bighearted supporters….you have filled my heart time and time again 🥰
Thank you Rach Om & Bass for sticking a firecracker up my butt and taking me out of my comfort zone….love you very long time ❤️❤️❤️

Happy love day everyone!!! 💖🌸🤗
As much as I think it’s ridiculous to be told when, who and how to love, I’m a big believer in love….it really is the answer, the only thing that’s real and what there’s just too little of💞

Feast your loving eyes on my LOVE cake…..rose & pistachio vegan cheesecake, the most delectable flavour combo 💗💚💗 Reflecting the colours of the heart chakra, pink & green, imbuing all who eat it with the powerful heart medicine of rose 🌹

Sending you all buckets of beautiful love, today and every day 😘
