Was anyone else making Christmas Puddings today?
We had a great group over today, starting with mulled wine & mince pies, making frosted lanterns whilst the fruit was steeping and thinking of our loved ones as we stirred our puddings together.
If you haven’t made yours yet, there are spaces on our online course on Monday 29th Nov (details on website)

Another blast at @clfairs Christmas Fair!
It was great to work with @joehurdcook and @tiggernik in the Kitchen Theatre making Apricot Advent Wreaths. It was lovely to meet @barretaskew and @rhodeskitchen and look forward to doing it all again in Harrogate in a couple of weeks…
Then over in the Christmas Theatre I was demonstrating these beautiful frosted lanterns.

What a sausage of a morning!
Four fabulous guests, one as young as 10yrs, making 9 varieties of sausage between us along with 6 big trays of sausage rolls. Using fabulous free range pork from @hammonds_butcher, apples from the garden and other scrummy flavours - we are well sorted for Bonfire Night! 🌭🌭🌭

Who said that today would be a washout?I’ve had a delightful time and outside all day! It started with a swim in the @loveopenwater lake, collecting 4 new hens from @charlotteschickens, cutting back the grapevine, gathering windfall Bramley’s, plucking figs, admiring this hydrangea (second flush of flowers) now for a bath before @wardybits’s sausage & beans supper ❤️

If only you could smell this!
Uncapping some of the last frames of this year’s honey harvest in preparation for @nationalhoneyshow… As I pull the tool across, the aroma of a freshly opened bottle of beer is released - my girls must have been visiting next door’s hops 🌱🍻
Though hops are wind pollinated, the bees may have visited to drink rain drops off the flowers? There’s even some research that hops can protect the bees from the nasty varroa mite - so good news all round!

Fridays always start early - with our first loaves going out warm from the oven to local families via @hounslow_foodbox then I’m baking for all my other customers throughout the rest of the day…
