Hello there Galley friends or should I say top of the mornin’ to you? I gave my guy a choice of what he would like for this year’s Saint Patrick’s Day treat. A traditional cooked breakfast with some tasty Irish potato cakes or Irish bread pudding. Silly me! Of course he chose the dessert. Lucky him! Lucky you! I made a few changes to SIMPLE PEACH […]
Follow my blog with Bloglovin Happy March to you all, Galley Peeps.

I’m chanelling my Irish roots today. Some tasty Irish Whiskey Baby Back Ribs (recipe here) are crisping on the grill as I write this and some delicious Colcannon (recipe here) has been prepared ahead and kept warm while I whip up a little deliciousness for dessert But since life is uncertain, we had dessert first. Two whole slices. Shameful but oh so good. So richly […]
I’ve been a very very bad Kat! Having an addictive personallity means there are some things I just don’t keep on hand. Sea Salt and Black Pepper Chips for one. Another, which I refuse to buy any more is Irish Cream Liqueur. I won’t mention any particular brand. They are all the same and all evil. Just thinking about them makes my belly ache…they are […]

So for those of you waiting for this part of the globe to warm, here is a soul-and-tummy-warming fish stew for you. It’s easy and quick to prepare and most of the ingredients can be kept […]
Every time I make shepherd’s pie it’s different. That’s the beauty of this dish. Sometimes I use ground up leftover roast beef and gravy, sometimes ground lamb. For our onboard, tiny galley life it’s easier when I use leftovers as I can make extra mashed potatoes one night and use them to top the pie the next night – economy of efforts. Today I decided […]
