I love Trish’s French Country kitchen on BBC Lifestyle, and this morning I was watching her create this truly French dish that we ate so often when in France two years ago.

Origin: This recipe belongs to Ana Sortum of Oleana fame in Boston and is unequivocally the best meal I have ever eaten in my life!

My idea was that Cherries and Asparagus would be great subject matter, as mid November is the annual Ficksburg Cherry Festival. Vauno did the front cover as usual and the photo’s that will accompany the recipes. Read more
Origin: There is nothing more satisfying than biting into a tender asparagus tip, slightly steamed, yet still crunchy, oozing with salted farm butter! Read more
Yesterday, six of us decided that a wonderful way to spend a spring Saturday afternoon would be to enroll in a course of Pesto making with Doris – from Earth Mother, at her beautiful Hansel and Gretel home in Assagay. Read more
