About me



I'm a half Finnish designer who has since taken a break to bring up my children. I used to work in Graphic Design, but now I prefer working with textiles and illustration. This blog is about my allotment and garden. I have been gardening for many years and grew up watching my mum and dad do the same. I began my allotment in Jan 2010 in memory of my father who passed a way just before then. I also love cooking and finding inventive and delicious ways to make my produce into meals. I'm growing with my experiences, and welcome any helpful advice! Sometime soon I hope to use my garden as inspiration for my art.

Simnel cake

I have never made one before, but thought it might be nice to take to my sister's house for an early family easter meet up today. I have never actually eaten one either, so not sure what I was aiming for, but to be honest I thought it tasted very similar to Christmas cake and with eyes shut probably couldn't tell much difference. Anyway it looked very pretty and I had fun making it using the River Cottage Year recipe.
