Monday 1st December 2014
- The last wine bar of the year “pops up” this Friday at 6pm. We hope you can make it – why not wear your favourite hat?
Iain, Oli and Sandy will judge the best hat at around 10.00pm – a prize for the winner…….
The food and wine theme is France – delicious beef or mushroom bourguignon and dauphinoise potatoes on offer. - Thinking about food preparations for Christmas – here is another reminder of my Christmas list which could help if you are time poor.
- On Saturday the 13th I will be open for a “Managing the food logistics for Christmas” drop in – pop in to the shop between 10.30am and 1.00pm with any questions or concerns you have and hopefully we can talk them through over a brew.
- Still on the Christmas theme (sorry!), a great gift idea for people who love food and cooking is an edible gift or Cornucopia Voucher – click here for more info
- And still more on that festive theme….
Here are some really, really delicious looking recipes for the festive season, which happen to be vegetarian – should you be looking for inspiration. - It’s a Sutton Hoo chicken week – let me know if you would like one.
- Calling all Facebook people – please like Cornucopia Cooks, it only takes a few seconds! (If you prefer twitter, why not follow Cornucopia Cooks)
