I’m Sinéad. I’m a Mammy of two small boys, living in Gorey, Co. Wexford. I love to cook and am slightly food obsessed. I work and commute, so time is scarce. I like to fill my freezer with good homemade food and I love to have homebaked treats for the boys’ lunchboxes, if they last that long.

My food philosophy, or maybe philosophy sounds fairly high faluting, (and yes technically it should read “Food and I”) goes something like this :
I LOVE FOOD. I think about it nearly all the time and cannot understand the “food is fuel” believers. I love to eat out and get great joy out of a good meal and service to match. I love to cook but nothing too complicated, I’m a homecook, I cook to feed my young family. I have no formal training and my knife skills leave a lot to be desired. I shop in supermarkets and love a fancy treat but don’t spend all my time in gourmet shops. I love to try new recipes but rarely invent them myself. I am evangelical about not using jars when from scratch is easier but have (many) guilty pleasures.
