Spring is just around the corner now and the lilac buds are getting plump as are the chestnut buds , The chestnut trees are always the first to get their candlesticks and then the long frondy leaves.
The partridges on the cornfield are begining to pair off and the fighting for breeding rights develop into full blown jumping up and down cockfights , So good to see! They are a good barometer as to the state of the ecology. Things must be good this year as there are about thirty birds all skriking and cackling in the drills. They seem to be most vocal when there's a bit of frost in the air and will sometimes chatter to each other all night. The local foxes seem to have developed a preference for the abandoned Mc Donalds "Fallout" chucked out of the car windows by the MackyD's customers---Poor foxes! the future is less bright for them. all kinds of dietary problems coming!! Serves them right for taking the soft option. Saw one in the road the other morning lapping up some evil looking pink goo out of a cardboard beaker.
This Blog contains work from some of the worlds finest culinary artists And then --some of mine too!!

My suggestions for sourcing great ingredients will be included as we go along Ther are slideshows of some of the restaurants I have been lucky enough to have visited with pictures of some of their delightfully crafted dishes.
