Did u know? Nature always has the answer...The world can seem like a big & scary place at times. Next time you feel fearful, just get yourself into an outside space & focus on a small soul "doing its thing" - just like this tiny snail,quietly drinking from raindrops on a leaf. Nature's reboot.🌿🌱🇬🇧🌱🌍🐌

Under current NHS England Right to Choose rules you pick a provider and they see you as soon as they’re able - within weeks sometimes. This change could make it years and stop access to medication too. Effectively doing away with Right to Choose.

Whilst not one for self promotion (yet), I thought I'd share my latest blog post on the DM path...

So, after a lot of pressure from a certain friend, I'm slowly prepping my next cassoulet, starting with some confit duck legs. 5 day dry marinade of thyme, rosemary, garlic and black peppercorns and in the oven for 5 hours. Next job, Toulouse sausages. Watch this space! 🍽️

Had visitors last weekend so, any excuse for a pork pie!🍽️

Yes, the Christmas cakes have been made, 10 in fact, but here's a pic of the MEP. In fact the MEP is my favourite part of cooking, always has been. 🍽️

1/2 I'm a big fan of Cassoulet, anyone who knows me will tell you that. Some time ago I set out to make my own. After a bit of research, I discovered Paula Wolfert's recipe was supposed to be the best. There are many, many variations on this dish but I had to pick 1 and this was it.🍽️

Finally got round to curing and smoking some bacon this week🍽️

Finally got round to making some Belgian buns at the weekend! Good dough to work with, messy when incorporating the butter but then suddenly comes together, lovely smooth and elastic 🍽️

First bundt cake! Quite happy with that. Needless to say it didn't last long! 🍽️
