Hello!
In amongst the frantic flat hunting and working some crazy hours, I've managed to indulge myself in one of my favourite hobbies, reading. Ok, by indulging I mean using my train commute and time while waiting for estate agents... I have been using these little quiet moments to briefly lose myself in an incredible book. It is written by the wonderfully inspiring Barbara Kingsolver and her family and is not only the story of their year of eating only locally-produced food (most of which is grown and raised by their own hand) but it is also jam-packed with seasonal recipes and information about the food industry. It really is eye-opening and made me feel a new respect for farmers and their way of living. It's a perfect balance of adorable family tales with hard-hitting facts. I'm now craving some garden space ;) Imagine being able to grow your own salad, freshly picking it for dinner... yum! I'm looking forward to trying out some of the recipes too :) I'll let you know how I get on!
