FOOD! It has been a fairly central theme for me over the last month or so and I am setting up this blog as I intend for it to be a bit of a project over the next few months. As you all probably know, I’m going to have a bit of time on my hands and this blog will aim to track my progress as I do two things:

1) The Great British Bake Off Challenge – I am going to choose my favourite recipe from the Great British Bake Off each week and then try to recreate it in my kitchen.

2) The Great Emsworth Feeding Challenge – I want to eat more seasonal, sustainable, and interesting food. Living so close to the butchers and greengrocers I want to learn to cook with whatever is fresh and intend to share the results here.
