    Hi Dan

    I've just done a piece on 'crying the neck' it's a traditional harvest thing, and it ties in with the beginnings of harvest festivals..I made a poppy seed roll to go with it and the picture came out really well, would you like it as a guest blog piece? I'll be publishing it on the 23rd Sept. Don't worry if it doesn't fit your schedule, there'll be more..

    keep plugging away because I really enjoy reading it. It won't be long before a lot of people take notice of it I'm sure.

    it's going good - lots of hard work keeping it going over the summer when I was away, but more followers coming on, I  just need to get myself a publishing deal now...(I wish)

    ah ok, to change your pic click on 'my stuff' at the top of the page, then click on 'Edit your account/profile'.

    I think I'll make this a little more obvious, a badge is a great idea, ill have a look at some other websites and see what they do.

    Ok Im signing off for tonight, nice to meet you and have a great weekend!

    Sure, just let me know what you want me to do.

    Couple of things occur 2 me re this site - how do I do a profile pic? and you need to create a badge we can put on our blogs to direct people here.

    Would you be interested in guest blogging on here? I really think a larger audience should see your excellent work, even your photographs are beautifully detailed.

    (loved the before and after pic of the plate on your spag bol post!)

    7 June - Celebrating elder flowers. I try and do at least one post a week, it depends on the calendar obviously and the summer is actually a bit thin for feasting ( lots of hard work going on) but yes I'm having lots of fun, and spending too much time on it. I also have to give a lot of the food to friends otherwise I'd eat too much...

This makes a delicious dark smooth relish which you use like mustard, it's fantastic with cheese and with cold meat or nut roast. Make it now and keep for Christmas!
