We’re on a mission to make cooking smarter and living lighter easy for everyone. Through thermal cooking, we inspire sustainable choices that save time, cut waste, and reduce energy use—without compromising on flavour.
Hi, I’m Elaine—mum, home cook, and the voice behind this blog.
First off, I’m so glad you’re here! Whether you’re a busy mum trying to save time in the kitchen, someone looking to cut down on energy bills, or just someone who loves the idea of living more sustainably, you’ve found your people.
This blog is all about making life a little easier (and greener) with thermal cooking. I’ll be sharing recipes, tips, and ideas to help you save time, cut waste, and make the most of every meal. But I’m not doing this alone—my two amazing sons, James and Rowan, are right there with me. James makes sure all the tech runs smoothly, and Rowan creates the videos that bring everything to life.
Here’s the thing: this isn’t just our space—it’s yours too. We’d love for you to jump in and share your ideas, tips, or even your favorite recipes. What’s worked for you? What’s inspired you? Let’s learn from each other and build a little community that’s all about cooking smarter and living lighter.
So, grab a cup of tea (or coffee, no judgment here) and take a look around. I hope you’ll feel right at home and leave with some inspiration for your own thermal cooking journey. Welcome aboard—I can’t wait to see what we create together!
Love you lots,
Elaine
