As we say in Yorkshire, “By ‘eck!”. Yes, it’s been quite a roller-coaster of a year all right. In fact it’s over a year and a half really, but who’s counting? Not me, now I’m back.

I’m amazed its time for Autumnal Recipes again.
Kitchen Garden Plans 2017

Kale Frittata Recipe
I just love this Kale Frittata Recipe – so versatile as you can add any vegetable odds and ends that you happen to have left in your fridge, or have just dug up from your garden. Pick lots of Oregano or Marjoram in Summer, and lots of Parsley as well, to give the Kale Frittata […]
