| My new writing space! |
So...here's my catch-up communication for Mothering Sunday and....I'm simply longing to tell you all about my Simnel cake baking for this special day and my trialling the Panettone recipe of Paul Hollywood from BBC Food - bbc.co.uk/food and my second attempt at a recipe from "Bread" by Anne Sheasby - ISBN 978-1-84899-189-7 - of her Panettone on Page 161.
Making breakfast drop scones / pancakes with my grandsons, trying to answer the question - "so what's the difference between the two? Then what makes American Pancakes "fluffy" or about Pikelets, Blinis etc. and the inter-connecting frisson between all of these!!!
Oh and what about breakfasts, hey? So many differently delicious ideas, suggestions, ideas for this terribly important meal; why is it so many of us eat a daily bowl of cereal or slices of hot buttered toast?

Now I'm in favour of both these options but I want to explore others, starting with pancakes/drop scones to croissants, the Continental breakfast of cold meats, cheeses and fruit with coffee which we had in Salzburg and so on!
My father loved a huge rare steak with eggs "sunny-side-up" - wonderful...and fried cold potato slices, halved tomatoes, kidneys and bacon and liver and bacon...!
Potted foods - vegetables, pounded or blended meats, happily sealed with melted butter, 'fridge-stored and just waiting to be added to jacket potatoes, pasta, hot buttered toast or crisp savoury biscuits.
