  • Happy new year Pippi and to all of the stripey gang.

    Sorry been MIA for a while, been trying to follow and keep up-to-date, but RL been getting in the way. I've also joined in the Frugal Living and Grocery challenges on here, so that takes up a fair bit of 'pooter time.

    Anyway, I spotted a recipe for 'rhubarb champagne' which Frugaldom said had originated from a trip to the Orkneys 20 years ago - link here. I wondered whether there was any 'Slow food' mileage in it???? Failing that, it's another recipe to add to the 'Champagne' stable.

    Glad you had a wonderful xmas vacation.

    Here's to a great 2012 for us all. :beer:
