Abbie's Sausage and Mushroom Pasta

Thermos Taste for Adventure

My name is Abbie and I am @quarascran on Instagram. The story behind my account is that I am obsessed with cooking, food and making amazing drinks! During the lockdown, I would cook to help with my anxiety and depression. As a laugh, my friends would tell me to do a food Instagram and I did it for a laugh but got lots of positive words etc so kept it. I’ve loved it so much actually and it really helps with my mental health.

I work as a bar manager in Glasgow, Scotland in a cute bar/restaurant called The Botany. I work with a very talented chef called Jim Kerr and he has taught me a lot.
