autumn is here
Autumn is here. What does that mean? Well one thing is for sure. If you havn’t started already, it’s probably time to make a few jams and chutneys and preserves with the last of your summer fruit. Stonefruit are always a personal favourite for all of the above and the a virtually spilling from the…

my midnight picnic
My wife has a set of cards entitled “fifty things to do before you die”, or something similar. Or, as I just found out, “fifty things to do once in a lifetime”, to be absolutely correct. Once or twice we have sat around the table with friends after having a wine or two, and magically…

A menu for Beever. Day two.
Pilaf. Basically rice cooked with stock or other flavours. I have to thank my friend Marky for introducing me to the world of pilaf. Bloody delicious and well worth a go if you’ve never tried it before. This one is going to be flavoured simply with chicken and curry powder aka. Garam masala. So we…
