Forgive me readers, for I have not posted...


{quince pickle + oxford marmalade}

Forgive me readers, for I have not posted.
It's been 20 days since my last posting...



In all seriousness, I am so sorry for the lack of posting lately!

Have been on a pretty intense placement at Hutt Hospital and in any spare moment have been learning all about the art of jam and preserves making and generally about gastronomy from a master aristologist (which I've learnt has nothing to do with Aristotle and everything to do with good eats).  Very exciting but leaves oh so little time for blogging.

But please do bear with me....there are so many awesome things I've tried out recently that I just can't wait to share with you.  And just to whet your appetite here are a few teasers of things to come...

{maple + chardonnay roasted quinces}

  1. My child, please recite 3 x chocolate hail Madeiras and 5 x our Fruitcakes and all will be forgiven. :D

    Jam and preserves sound like a lovely skill to compliment your baking. I'm thinking tarts, sponge rolls made completely from scratch. Now that would be smug.

    Home made jam in home made sponge...

    1. You crack me up Genie!!! I've found it surprisingly relaxing...just stirring and staring into bubbling vats of sugary fruity goodness. Thinking about victoria sponges, montecarols, jam filled doughnuts... :P
