Drinks
Don’t Cry For Me
Herewith announcing a call for participation in the first Paddy’s Day Food Parade. The opening number will be some traditional Irish champ – a milky mash with spring onions and melting butter.
Waking Up To Coffee
I was left feeling thoroughly educated in the matter of home-brewed coffee (and possibly a little light-headed) after a tutorial and tasting session with Karl Purdy at the Coffee Angel Training Lab
Just Call Me Jammy
I survive another mammoth wine session at Gilbey’s 2nd Annual Portfolio tasting and find out that there is yet more wine (and travel) in my future.
Whiskey Business, Part II
Lemony apple pudding with a buttery, creamy whiskey sauce – dessert as inspired by that ultimate winter warmer-upper, the Irish hot whiskey.
Fave New World
The world of New Zealand wine awaited me at not one but two tastings – they’re not just about sauvignon blanc, it seems…
Whiskey Business
Ah, hot whiskeys. They were serving them up by the dozen at the Temple Bar Trad Fest launch and I was happy to imbibe.
2009, The Spud Review
My review of 2009 at The Daily Spud – there was food, there was drink, there were awards and, of course, there were lots of potatoes!
Colouring Food Red
A little while back, Angela from Spinach Tiger asked the food blogging community to cook red to remember World Aids Day. I was happy to oblige with this recipe for sliced tomatoes in a bloody mary sauce.
