Having finally adjusted the wonky picture above the fireplace, and already knee deep in my abundant crop of pine cones from my leaf-blanketed garden, I am finally feeling more settled into Dorset Life.I moved due to work demands - but having spent a few weeks breathing the fresh air and rambling through random farm fields and forests, I would quite happily subscribe to this locality through choice.
I had a birthday recently and Rachel Allen Cookbooks (***see pic... no it is NOT me!) were heavily featured. I have her BAKE book (a firm cupboard fav) and the new Rachel's Favourite Food at Home has already got me reaching for the online shop button, ordering chicken to boil up for a homemade pie. I am already feeling virtuous from having reduced my garden-grown cooking apples into sauce for Christmas! The threat of rearing chicken is next...

I too love Rachel Allen's recipes - I have all of her books! Are you watching her new series on Good Food channel?
thought you had fallen off the planet and could not believe how much you looked like Rachel Allen, then I read the post.... doh...
Hi!!!
I can't tell if you still blog in 2011???
I Hope So!!!
I found your blog in an interesting way!
I was commenting on PS I Quilt when I saw a women's comment above mine and thought, "Hmmm, I'll just click on hers...Sue Bone...to see what blog she follows and I saw yours listed.
I liked the name, so I looked and saw... Rachel Allen!!!
I have just recently (2 weekends ago) found R Allen's book "Favourite Food at Home" and HEART it!!!
I have made her pecan/maple syrup muffins (heavenly)
and her chocolate cake for BD Parties....TWICE since then!!!
I have made my own icing which cuts down on the sweetness!!!
I have added pictures of her cakes to my blog...(I'm new in 2011! And just recently figured out how to add pictures!!!)
Anyways... hope your still blogging!!!
I just became a follower!
