Right after the Olympics theme of last month's 5-Star Makeover Challenge, we find ourselves back in the UK again, this time chilling out over high tea, British style. Tea Party is the theme of this month's 5-Star Makeover
Today marks my first participation in the 5-Star Makeover challenge hosted by Natasha of 5 Star Foodie and Laz of Lazaro Cooks. I don't know why, but I felt like this dish was my 'rights of passage' offering to the 5-Star Makeover group whose participants have such impeccable knowledge and innovation with the food they create
It’s the first time I’ve tried any of the White Company Homeware in my kitchen – though my bedroom and bathroom are already full of their accessories, bed linen and towels

Obviously I wasn't being trendy - in my case all this was just an accident, but last week the blog celebrated chickpea and gave hummus a glorious spring time makeover
I always think that oranges, clementines, tangerines and satsumas are cheery symbols of Christmas, and I remember searching for a tangerine at the bottom of my Christmas stocking, then peeling it and eating it in the cold darkness of my bedroom on Christmas morning……it was all part of the mystery and excitement, as well as feeling just a little naughty, as I was eating something whilst still in bed…… which, was usually forbidden
I came away with the recipe (it was one from her head) and decided to give it a makeover. It was my mother’s birthday last week and one of the home baked treats we had was a lovely chocolate flapjack
