So Christmas has gone.
There is daylight on the garden, the snow has cleared. My kitchen is full of amazing presents: a silicone loaf tin, a beautiful blue Le Creuset pestle and mortar, a blue Hairy Bikers tagine.
It has occurred to me how much I have neglected my kitchen. I have been crazily busy, crawling home dog tired and curling up in bed only to roll out and back into work again the next day, and the next. Food has been mostly necessity, though I made Christmas bread and cinnamon rolls for my team for Christmas Eve.
So my challenge is this: one cook book recipe a week, every week, without fail. That could be anything, from cookies to cheesecake, mains, starters, drinks or snacks. With that recipe, a blog post. That means at least once a week I will make a pot of tea, tie my hair back, put on some music and spend time to myself in the kitchen.
It sounds like a good resolution to me.
