Welcome

Well, hello there.
At last I've taken the plunge and started this blog all about food. I've been blogging for a while - in my other life - that of a fiction writer but the more I've got into blogging and social networking, I've found myself increasingly sharing details of food, recipes, places I've eaten etc.

The thing is ... I LOVE food! In our house it's almost a religion; a shared family passion - a way in which we share love for each other, a way in which we can connect as a family. If ever any of us are down in the dumps, it's cooking and food that cheer us up.

The kitchen is truly the heart of our home - it's not just a place for cooking but for dancing, singing, debriefing each other's day and moaning about the washing.

We are signed up with Able and Cole, an organic box scheme which delivers on a Thursday - a highlight of our week as we race to the boxes. We started off just getting the veg, but have soon progressed to making it our main weekly grocery delivery. And although it looks an expensive way to shop on first look, our grocery bills have reduced by over half because we're not seduced by false offers, impulse buys or toddler shopping.

What we love about the box delivery scheme is the idea of seasonality - eating in tune with nature. We also love the organic cider that 'magically' comes along with it.

So this blog is an indulgence and a chance to share with you some of the food, ideas and experiences. Bon appetite.
