National Dairy week is upon us, time to get out and experience the best that our dairies have to offer. And they really need us, as the supermarkets continue to squeeze prices on milk, and the threat of superdairies looms. Which are not really all that super. At the same time the number of artisanal [...]

Nearly time for Father’s Day, which is always one of those events that catches even me by surprise. It needs something else just after it, like the way Mother’s Day works with Easter. And events involving chocolate always have my attention! So, if I were shopping for a Father’s Day gift for a dad with [...]

I love being a mum, and I love my food. Which probably makes me easy to buy for on Mother’s Day. And it has meant that Dr T has never fallen into the trap of Olay and L’Oreal Mother’s Day advertising (trust me, she’s worth so much more, and no mum wants anti-wrinkle cream. Ever). [...]

It’s getting to that time of year when I get inundated with emails about hampers, and I often wonder who buys them. There’s the big corporate buyers, and I would think that a good hamper would be well received by many people. Even if you didn’t get the whole hamper, everyone on a team could get [...]

Cheese please!

Dr T has been avoiding dairy for the past two weeks. Don’t ask, but it’s lasted longer than avoiding beer! The benefit has been huge amounts of goats cheese in the house, which I love. In fact, I love my cheese. Which is just as well round here, as you can’t walk 50 yards without [...]
