It has been what can only be described as a pleasant foodie weekend in our cottage. Saturday was my Dad's birthday - as it was only the two of us celebrating here he had a small cake!We went for a lovely dinner to the Duke of Cambridge Organic Pub in our old stomping ground of Islington with our former neighbours Peter and Lorraine. The food was delicious - Sea Bass with Patatas Bravas, Chorizo and Cavalo Nero. Everything organic and naturally sourced and lovely seasonal food. I definitely recommend a visit.
Easter has arrived early and I have been formulating Easter Baking recipes for a new article all weekend. The air in our cottage has been scented with milk, white and dark chocolate. Needless to say, we have tasted and approved everything!
Finally, as my hens are now laying 7 eggs a day, I have painted a little sign to match their coup to start selling a few of the spare ones! Does this qualify us as a cottage industry I wonder?

Firstly, happy birthday to your dad. Busy baking Easter goods, I can't wait to hear more about this near the time! Pleased to hear your hens are now laying more eggs for you :)

Happy birthday to your Dad! How wonderful that the hens are laying so well! I wish I lived closer as I'd be buying up your extras!
