4th February 2012

Personal thoughts from the Festival Director - not necessarily endorsed by the Festival Organisers.

Notes for the Month - January 2012

Mary had a Baby...
The Word to be spoken, the Truth to be told,
The Way to be walked, the Light to be lit,
The Love to be loved, the Joy to be shared,
The sick to be healed, the homeless to be taken in
The lonely, the unwanted to be befriended and wanted
The hungry to be satisfied, The prisoner to be visited
The old to be served...and all neighbours, to give them a smile
The Word made flesh, the Bread of Life
The Sacrifice to be offered
Such Love.

Twecipes

I am not into tweeting at all but my cusiosity was aroused when I saw a book of tweetable recipes advertised in aid of FoodCycle which aims to reduce waste and poverty across the UK. The book duly arrived, containing 50 recipes all of 140 characters or less. Here is one of my favourites:

Pigeon Breasts
Fry breasts in butter w. thyme, b. pepper & crushed juniper. Add sweet herby or fruity wine vinegar to deglaze juices.

Geoff has just dropped off 10 brace of partridge so I shall have some for supper!

Happy New Year to you all.
