I finally got around to drying mushrooms. I picked a few boxes on the weekend with the plan that dried mushrooms would be a nice addition to the larder for the 10 months of the year that aren’t the mushroom season. They’ll be great in pasta and risotto and baked dish’s like the rabbit I baked last night. Yeah sure I took photos, and yeah I’m a total jerk for formatting the card before putting the photos on my mac. A total duuurr moment, of which I prone to have a few.
I mentioned a few weeks ago that I had some news that was of the rather rad persuasion, but couldn’t say anything. Well it’s official now. I’ve signed for a book deal, for a Whole Larder Love book set for a 2012 release. It’s going to be full of recipes, stories how too’s etc. So I have a great deal of work in front of me, it’s very exciting. I feel pretty blessed to have been asked and never imagined it would happen, but it has, so now I have to give my all and make it the best I possibly can. So head down, bum up…..let’s make this happen.
That’s awesomes x rad!

Truly and sincerely, they couldn’t have found someone more up to the challenge of writing a witty, useful book. Powerhouse is wonderful- fingers crossed you will do a stateside signing.

Great news! They certainly picked the right man. That’s a book on food i would buy in an instant. Keep it up, don’t forget your trip to Sweden. Mayflies are hatching, blueberries are ripening in the next two weeks and chanterelles has just started popping up everywhere.

If I only was a rich man!
