Sunday, 14th June 2015 - Pastry Feast at Hallwood

I should have been lying around in bed as I had guests to need me this morning. I was hoping for a mug of tea or something. Tim read his iPad for a while then went back to sleep. I got up and made my own tea.

Another Victoria produced today for new guests. Tim told me they are not so nice frozen after I had got  a couple of slices out the freezer so I had to make a fresh one to avoid ridicule. He seems to be enjoying both!!!

We met Sarah and Nigel at the Biddenden food fair. We stocked up with twinkles and plenty of yummy pastry based goods to take back to Hallwood Farm. I had a most enjoyable time on the Invicta Herb stand. The couple running it were very entertaining. I came away with a Vietnamese Coriander. Harriet tasted it and very cleverly guessed the coriander part. It looks nothing like it. Clever girl.

Back to Hallwood where Sarah and I pondered over a book I found necessary to buy. The Hedgerow cookbook by Wild at Heart. We found possibly four but definitely three recipes to try. Turned out to be not such a bargain at £5 a recipe but it amused us for a while.

I had my first Pimms of the year made for me. Thankyou Wickhams for sourcing the ingredients at such shirt notice. 

I merrily greeted my new guests with fruit infused breath.
