Hello! I'm Becca, welcome to Amuse Your Bouche! I'm 23 and I live in Liverpool in the north of England, though I'm a southerner at heart - I'm originally from Hertfordshire.
I live with my boyfriend Chris, who I've been with for 7 years. We were long distance for 4 years, so it's great to finally be together. He's a professional drummer, which I think is pretty much the coolest thing ever. We live with a couple of friends and two adorable rats called Nibbles and James, who I love to bits - I often find myself just sitting there watching them when I'm meant to be doing something else.
When I'm not working, I spend my time cooking, taking photos (my photography is still nowhere near where I'd like it to be, but I've improved a lot in just a few months), sewing and reading.
Please feel free to get in touch, I love hearing your comments and questions: amuseyourbouche.cookery@gmail.com
Wow, a fellow chef AND rat lover?! I share my home with 2 little rats as well, Bianca and Gus... and my time at home is pretty much divided between cooking and playing with them :-)!
ReplyDeleteAw cool :D are they a girl and a boy? How do you keep them apart?! My housemates used to own rabbits and were literally just a couple of days late in spaying them when they reached the right age - we ended up with 9 at one point haha
DeleteOh geez! My male is actually neutered, so they play freely without any consequences, haha.
DeleteI just found your site...and look forward to trying your recipes and stuff on your blog. I love food but don't have motivation to cook sometimes. I want to change that though and start eating better. I guess you can say I'm a vegetarian junk foodie. I've been looking for the best tomato basil recipe... any advice? I'm sure I'll try all of your pastas lol

Hi Becca! I think your photography is amazing! I have a lot to learn for my blog's photos, but I'm taking it one recipe at a time. I don't have any rats, but we have kitties..so I understand your love of your pets. I love your blog and your recipes. I look forward to trying them out! Congrats on your feature on Tasty Kitchen!! :)
ReplyDeleteHey Becca! I nominated your blog for a bloggy award :) go check it out!
ReplyDeleteHi Becca! Thanks so much for the comment on my recipe. I have been having a look around your blog and I just love it! It's so nice to see a fellow UK veggie blogger. And I love the photos. How do you cope with our chronic lack of sunlight?? This has made it so hard for me to maintain the blogging schedule over the winter because I work M-F 9-5.
ReplyDeleteHey Christine :) I'm lucky (unlucky?) enough that I don't work 9-5 every day, so I can usually get some cooking done at lunchtime a few times a week. It's rubbish though isn't it - through the winter anything I made after about 3pm couldn't be photographed because it was so dingy outside!
DeleteHi Becca! I just found this blog and love it! Im hoping to switch to vegetarian in the coming weeks. I have a small request, would you think about putting together a Student Week.(weeks shopping on a budget and the recipes you could make for the week, also on a time limit) It seems to be hard to find recipes that use similar ingredients to make it work as a student. Thanks :-)
ReplyDeleteHi, thanks for you comment! Good luck with making the switch to vegetarian :) Actually I have been thinking of doing some budget-friendly recipes, so I'll keep that in mind!
DeletePS. I recently switched over to Wordpress, so instead of following this blog, please follow www.amuse-your-bouche.com instead - you can find all of the same recipes over there but it will be updated whereas this one will not :)
Would you consider putting together a Student Week Guide? What to buy in weekly shopping, recipes that will work with what was bought and fill out the week, dishes that work on a time table etc. Im a student hoping to become vegetarian but find that a lot of dishes use ingredients that only get used in that dish etc and not exactly quick or affordable so would really appreciate it.
