Happy Monday! I hope everyone had an enjoyable weekend! We had some nice weather here so we tried to make the most of it and spent time outdoors. We also ended up visiting one of the shopping centres (malls) near our place since my phone has been acting up and needs to be replaced. Looking forward to getting my new phone since the screen on this one has been going a bit crazy!

Sunday night is also Downton Abbey night for us… I know this season hasn’t started up yet in the U.S. so I won’t say anything other than so far it’s been quiet interesting to say the least! Do you watch it?

Over the weekend I also made this little sweet treat… I made something similar earlier in the week but wasn’t 100% happy with the flavour so I had to make it again, you know to get it just right! 😉

What I love about this recipe is that there is no added sweetener… no honey, no coconut sugar etc, the sweetness comes from the fruit and from the spices I use. Stewed fruit is delicious and a welcome change at this time of year when just eating fruit cold may not be so appealing. You can eat this on its own or pair it with some eggs in the morning. It would also be a great accompaniment to some homemade coconut milk ice-cream if you wanted a really special treat! [Read more…]
