There’s no way that I don’t include food in this blog as well. I’ve always loved good food (well, maybe not always… I’m looking at you, my 4-year-old-self-who-didn’t-feel-like-eating-at-all) but I had a few issues with it, to put it mildly, in the last two years or so. While I’m trying to restore my healthy relationship with food, I’ll be posting mainly photos of things I’ve prepared at home, some of my favourite recipes and also of restaurants, coffee houses and food markets I’ve visited and enjoyed.
Food is not the enemy, it is not to be feared or condemned. It should be considered as the fuel our bodies need to function properly, not as a reward or punishment. Food is simply delicious and should be enjoyed! I believe that balance is key and we need to nourish our bodies, our minds and our souls in the best ways possible!
Nothing looks as good as being healthy feels! Stay tuned and… stay foolish, stay hungry! 🥥

In February we went to a Japanese restaurant. We shared a lovely meal with friends in one of Maki & Ramen’s locations in Edinburgh. The food was great, and even though the place in Fountainbridge was full to the brim, as we couldn’t have picked a busier night (we went…

It’s finally time to resurrect the two categories of the blog that I’ve been neglecting lately, eating and exploring! For starters, I will be updating the ‘Eating’ tab each month with different places to eat that we have visited to try a different type of cuisine. Twelve months, twelve cuisines…

Servings: 1 I’ve had this recipe ready to be published on the blog for a few weeks and then I forgot about it! Now, I think it’s already too late for nectarines to be in season, so you could adjust the main ingredient according to your preferences and taste! 🙂…

Makes: 12 balls Beetroot in a sweet snack? An unusual combination but it works! The earthy flavour of the beetroot combines perfectly with the natural sweetness of the dates and the hint of coconut gives these bites a subtle tropical tang. I had to experiment a few times to reach…

In order to celebrate the first milestone of Owl.Bee.Reading – we reached 100 followers on Instagram! – I decided the time has come for some explanation. Sure, for many bookstagrammers having 100 people following them is not a lot but to me it means a lot. So, a massive THANK…

Servings: 1 Who doesn’t love pancakes? A classic recipe but there are so many varieties and everyone can pretty much adjust it to their liking. I used to have a recipe for fluffy pancakes which I followed for years but there was something wrong with it because the batter was…

Servings: 1 Porridge – the ultimate comfort breakfast food! I don’t think I will ever get bored of eating porridge, there are just so many variations to make it. You can experiment with pretty much everything: the type of your oats, what you put inside and the toppings, the best…

New Beginnings… Starting this blog was something I’ve put aside for far too long but when I found myself with a lot of free time on my hands during lockdown, I decided I shouldn’t procrastinate anymore and finally get to it. I love the start of something new: there’s always…

We all know the famous meme with the astronaut saying ‘I need space’ and it has both literal and figurative meaning. It couldn’t be more accurate in my case. While I am crazy about space and cosmos, astronomy, stars and planets (a little bit about this passion of mine – in a separate post), I…
