IN THE KITCHEN | PEANUT BUTTER OATMEAL COOKIES (no flour!)

Given that baking for me equals decadent chocolate or lemon cakes topped with sinful glaze, I thought I should even it out a little and dip my feet into a slightly unknown territory--peanut butter and oats! With a soft, gooey centre and a crisp, nutty shell, these cookies sure do know how to dial up the 'treat factor'. I was quite skeptical about working with oats and peanut butter, but oh-my-god am I a convert or what! Never again shall I look at a jar of flour when I've got these oats by my side. I used sundrop honey flavoured chunky peanut butter, but you can use any you fancy. Additionally, you can coarsely blend the entire quantity of oats for a smoother mixture, or leave half unblended for a rustic and unique texture.

DISPLAY YOUR EVERYDAY ARTWORK + PHOTOGRAPHS

If you're looking for some inspiration in the photo hanging department, then look no further! Here's a trick to turn your office supplies into chic photo hangers. Cheap and easy? We're so in. A blank office space can be extremely daunting and committing to a framed artwork or a single photograph, even more so. Clipboards are a brilliant solution for those (like me!) who tend to fall in love more than once. I have a boxed collection of photographs and artwork that every now and then vie for a space on my (already cluttered) wall. The solution? Use a clipboard as your photo/artwork hanger and switch whenever you're bored! That's it. I was looking for a classic chipboard hanger but found this transparent one instead. I love the minimal vibe this adds to the entire space. What do you think? How do you hang your photographs or organise your office space?
