Much like you hear bands talking about their ‘difficult second album’ or authors referring to their ‘difficult second novel’, we now have my difficult second blog...! I’ve been so busy printing, copying and laminating I honestly haven’t had time to let the creative juices flow this week! It seems I even have work lurking in the depths of my sub-conscious at the moment - to my embarrassment I was told I was mumbling about rockets, of all things, in my sleep the other night! Oh dear... it must be bad!!
So as I hurry back to my laminating frenzy, and in the spirit of the diverse blogs we’ve seen recently (poems, facts, riddles and quizzes to name but a few) I shall leave you today with a ‘Kate’s Top Tip’!* If there are any apples left in the kitchen, take some home, peel and slice, lightly fry with some shallots in a little butter and a splash of water. Meanwhile brown off pork chops in a pan, then add to the apples & shallots, cover, and let simmer in the apple juices for a few mins. Serve the chops with a spoonful of the apples & shallots on top, & some new potatoes and green veg... Mm-mm delish!! (Eat your heart out Nigella!)
* Please note I take no responsibility for any burnt kitchens or food poisoning as a result! ;o)
