Jerusalem Artichokes are delicious, which is good job as they are pernicious in the veg patch. We didn’t even plant any and we ended up with a bumper crop from last year’s ‘leftovers’ missed after apparently harvesting them all…They have stored in the ground until now, and I have been able to make this fresh … Continue reading
Hi, I’m a sugar addict and it’s bad for me. The first part of solving the problem is owning up to it, so now I’m watching my sugar intake. I’m finding new ways to eat that don’t involve too much starch, you know, all the good stuff like bread, pasta, potatoes, rice, cake and pie … Continue reading

Finally, I have got around to bottling this less than salubrious amber liquid. This syrupy concoction has been looking dodgy in the demi-johns since the first warm days of summer 2013 when thousands of dandelion heads were picked, mushed and mixed with yeast and such like. It doesn’t taste like wine, more like sweet sherry, … Continue reading

It has eggs in, so this is not vegan, but if you’re talented/clever you might be able to use some vegegel or equivalent to help … Continue reading

2007 -2008 As you can see by the pics, there was a lot of work to do before we could even get to planting anything. The house needed everything doing, re-configuration, new kitchen, bathroom, central heating and complete re-decoration. The garden needed complete clearance as it was full of ramshackle sheds brimming with rubbish and … Continue reading
