The rain is pelting down on the roof of the conservatory and there is thunder rolling overhead but it couldn’t be a nicer afternoon.

A fresh baked scone topped with devon clotted cream then homemade raspberry jam and finally double crème de la Gruyèré.

Don‘t you just love my new t-shirt!!!

Late night bread preparation .
I’m not one to jump on the bandwagon so I‘m not making sourdough (although I al keeping my starter Günkter, who lives in my fridge, well fed).
This is the beginning of a beer yeast fed dough that I am using to make a batch of overnight bread rolls.
