Today the weather was fantastic.  After days of rain, fog, wind, even thunder, the last couple of days have improved dramatically.  Sunny, still, clear, frosty at first.  We took the dogs to the beach.  Berri loved it as always, and even Barney had a run around.  Berri does seem slightly subdued, we think he is missing his playmate.  Although he played with other dogs on the beach, he did not do so as eagerly as I had anticipated.  the beach is his favourite place.  It was fairly empty, but there were some people, and plenty of dogs there!  The photo was not taken today, but everything was similar, although these were probably taken in the summer.

Coming weekend.

This coming weekend, March 21st and 22nd, we have some availability still. The weather forecast is looking good, why not get yourselves down to Cornwall for a few days! Give me a ring or email if you are intersted.

Asparagus!

The English asparagus season is so short that I am using as much of it while it is around as possible! Fantastic stuff, I have presented it with butter as a starter, in a risotto, as a centre in sushi and alongside other food as a vegetable. I have eaten it in a restaurant in a tempura style thin batter, deep fried. Delicious.

Then there are the Cornish new potatoes and the first broad beans will be along soon... And all those lovely summer veg, hopefully from the garden, to look forward to. Great time of year for food and thinking about future meals!
