Hello everyone,
Had a good weekend? We went to Bath on Saturday to get a few things and for an appointment that Alan had for food allergy/intolerance testing. When he came out of there, he showed me a list of what not to eat....All the foods and drinks he likes basically. It will require a lot of changes...NO YEAST, SUGAR, DAIRY (the 3 worst offenders) FRUIT, BEER, WINE etc....A challenge for me to come up with some tasty food using ingredients that Alan isn't usually too keen on. He has been advised to try and follow advice 100% over the next 6 to 12 months minimum. No sugar, no sweet things...that would be a really hard one for me!
I have been busy reading various books over the weekend to come up with ideas of tasty snacks, breakfast, lunch and dinner. I love looking through recipe books, cooking and baking. However, I will have to see what I can come up with and it will have to be varied otherwise Alan will quickly get bored with the same old foods.
This morning I have been working in the kitchen whilst listening to Classic FM. I was waiting to hear some of the music from Downton Abbey. Dusting the shelves inspired me to post about some of the things I have in my kitchen. I have always liked blue and white together, such a fresh and pretty combination.

Some of my tablecloths
The spice jars are from Belgium and the Sul (salt) pot is a gift from my Father. He bought it for me on one of
his travels many years ago.
Back to my kitchen now...
A bientôt!
