Cakes!

Before adding a new post about Bilberries, I thought I’d quickly give a shout to my awesome friend’s blog – Boocakey (both friend and blog are awesome).

Mrs H and myself have been friends for years, and her blog is amazing – she is a cake obsessive (and bakes a mean angel cake) and is now sharing this through the internet now.

Check it out for recipes and tips from all that is hot in the baking world (pun very much intended).

We're back...

Sorry for the lack of posting lately... we have been away - to Devon and Northumberland. Oh and Cheltenham. Little chance to do much foraging. Devon is full of eating apples, but technically, when the tree is in someone's garden, it's less foraging more, well, scrumping! (or, depending on the person, "stealing apples, your honour"). Saw masses of fruit from the car, which leads me on to the next topic. Everything seems to be arriving early this year - Apples, Plums, Bilberries, Blackberries, even Elderberries, are all available NOW! Seriously, now is the best time of the year for fruit - pick enough now and in the following months, save it and store it, and you can last right through 'til spring time.

Go forth and gather people - information on various fruits to follow soon starting with the Bilberry... ahhhh, the Bilberry. This is hands down my favourite fruit, and we shall be picking it by the wheelbarrow load as soon as we can!

See you in a bit.
