Having been thoroughly enjoying the sunshine and donning my summer frocks, i suspect for the last time, I've not been in the kitchen too much over the past couple of week to make more than the normal fare. However, last weekend, i was inspired by Chut Fest at Barrington Court, where anyone can go to trade their jams and chutneys. So expect a few preserves this month!
I'm besotted with my slow cooker at the moment. It's the perfect way to cook up anything that needs reducing down or simmering away for any length of time. It is such an easy way of cooking up a chicken carcass after Sunday lunch to make soup or a few lamb bones to make lamb stock.
It's been decided that we are going to have a totally local Christmas, getting all the food and presents that we can't make ourselves from the local area, shouldn't be too difficult as we don't have any teenagers to find gifts for!
