Happy New Year
If you fancy starting off the New Year with a bit of a diet - we have a few recipes on here that you may like to try

Starting off with :-
Fennel and Pear soup - bit of an acquired taste but a lovely warming soup.

Did you know Fennel helps prevent bloating too - so kind to our tummies.

Covid lockdown 2
So here is a very special ginger cake
The recipe is from a very old friend care of Nigel Slater - it’s amazing
