I absolutely love it when readers of the blog get in touch with me. I’ve made chums that I will probably never meet in person this way, have swapped celebrity recipes with folks all around the world and have received some delightful photographs of people...

I have a new friend in the kitchen. My chums Michelle and Tony are moving to Hastings soon and I won’t half miss them. Luckily I have inherited a whopping great cactus from them to look after. It now resides by the kitchen window and will no...

Another pie! This time made for Shane and Ewan who battled their way around the British transport system to get to me – Northern Line madness. The pie was made exactly to Jimmy’s recipe – including the pastry and I was quite proud of it BUT I don’t think it was as...

“I lasted one night. They said my playing spoiled people’s appetites.” Well Gene’s appetite certainly wasn’t affected last night. He ate TWO pieces of the pie and took one home with him this morning. We christened the splendid beast the...

The rolling pin is a virgin no more. I don’t remember EVER making pastry without my mum being by my side telling me how it is done so I was VERY pleased with myself on Saturday when my chicken pie was a triumph! Both Rosalind and Jimmy Stewart himself...

“Not all of us were working at the same time, but enough of us. Hank Fonda knew how to cook rice. We lived pretty much on a rice diet.” On Friday Rosalind came over to the tub bringing her lovely new beau Jimmy Stewart. I thought I should cook him...
