A couple of weeks ago, I was down in Dorset and stopped for a cup of tea in Wimbourne, where I visited
http://www.longcrichelbakery.co.uk/. I happened to have with me a slow cooker, in its distinctive brown box. This aroused the curiosity of the young man who served me and we had a long chat about the product, where we come from, what we are aiming to achieve etc etc. It turns out that what caught his attention was the reference to Shropshire, as he had lived here for years, while his dad used to run a cook shop in Shrewsbury!
Then on to a lovely shop in Christchurch - Thomas and Lucia, which is named after the owner's great, great, great grandparents who lived in Shropshire.
Of course, we are now all connected so much more quickly via the internet, which is a fantastic way for me to pass on all my news and recipes to you all. We are now linked to the wonderful Kitchen Shop in Lichfield, via their facebook page - please go and "visit" them http://www.facebook.com/thekitchenshoplichfield online and then why not go there and see for yourself!! They have a fabulous shop on two floors, with an amazing selection of everything you could want for your kitchen, and more besides and the rest of Lichfield is worth a look round too.
Will be spending this icy cold weekend experimenting with new recipes, so keep an eye out for the more successful ones appearing here soon.
