Time to say goodbye

This week I have been going though all iof my belongings again and have now desided to get rid of some of my books  that I have had stored for a number of years and no longer use.  Those that are behold disrepair and damaged I will use as "winter fuel"  or upcylce into art work.

Cook Book

Over the last couple of months I hi am have been thinking long and hard about what I would put into my cook book.  I am happy with the title that I have chosen and still want it to include things that are seasonal and you can pick up from the Towpath with in the UK.

I also want to include other items that would have been eaten and consumed by Traditional Boating Families up until 1940.  This would have been around the time when people would have been forced to live in houses and trading upon the Canal Network started to decline due to Road and ultimately cars being invented.

I also would like to had some modern twists to my cook book, now that any thing can be purchased (at a price) and with the amount of items of food still being imported into the UK; anything is posible.

However I want this to be a pratical cook book, one were you could quite easily go into your local "Superstore" and pick up the item.  Or use the suppliers direct that I am looking at recommending.

So where do I start first?

Well Spring is on the way; and with S[ring comes Easter, so maybe I will start there.

Happy New Year 2016 By Miss K L Slomczynski

Good Morning and a Happy New Year 2016 to everyone.  

I hope that your New Year is full of  FUN in the Kitchen and that some of my use tips and advice that I provide help you to think of a different way of cooking and what you could use.

This Christmas I did not cook.  I spent Christmas Day with my loved ones who cooked for me.  I was so happy to have a day off from cooking and to just be able to put my feet up and enjoy and family home cooked meal.

This for Christmas we had Chicken and not Turkey but I did not mind, it was nice to have a change and a "Break form the Norm."

This week so far I have focused on only cooking stews with winter vegetables and meat from local butchers and selected stores that we use on our travels.

This is some thing that I will probably continue to do until about March.

WE still have some Elderberry Syrup on broad the NB Painted Lady that we made in September 2015 and some Home Made Wine which we made from Elder Flower/Elder Berry, and Rose hips with other added ingredient like Ginger.

WE have now had one Home-made wine bottled for Callan and Byrndly's 18th Birthday's with the help of their grandfather Mr Rayman Baxter.

I can not wait to start foraging again and making more "Towpath Culinary Delights" this Year. 

I hope you enjoy reading my Blog.
