We’re at the halfway point of the year so it’s time for the next instalment of my reading challenges check-in! I’ve managed to keep up my reading pretty well – although definitely didn’t read as much on my holiday as I expected! However, most importantly I have read some excellent books and ticked off a number of my reading challenges along the way.
Like most people, when the weather cools down it becomes soup central at my place. Potato and leek soup is always one of my go-to options, it’s so easy to make but just so delicious. Thick, creamy, packed with flavour – what more could you want!
It’s June Favourite Finds time! This month was all about live performances with some other goodies thrown in for good measure. A fun month, that’s for sure! I’d love to hear about your June favourite finds too!
I felt like a rice-based dinner recently and settled on this mushroom mapo tofu and I’m very glad I did! It was seriously tasty, easy to make and ready in no time too! Perfect for a quick mid-week dinner and vegan friendly as well.
The next stop on our Washington DC eating adventures was dinner at Albi. Given the focus is on Levantine cooking I was very excited as it’s one of my favourite cuisines (and veg friendly!). The space was lovely, the staff were incredibly helpful and we could see into the kitchen which I always love. A couple of weeks after we visited Albi was awarded their first Michelin star, so it’s probably going to come as no surprise that we loved our visit!
