Hello from Sawrey (Miss Potter village)

Far Sawrey lies in rolling farmland and wooded hillsides above Lake Windermere. It is the area where the "Miss Potter" film is based upon. This is a blog from the village shop, which is not dis-similar to the Beatrix Potter Ginger and Pickles Shop here in the heart of the village where Beatrix Potter lived and wrote her world famous stories including "The Tale of Peter Rabbit"

Monday ramblings...

Happy Monday to you all, not sure what happened yesterday, I was here all day but it slipped my mind to update the blog! Doh! Guess I was still recovering from my late night on friday at the tower bank arms...
Seems to be lots of action on the farming front today, lots of tractors and trailers passing the shop ...
A customer has brought me in a lovely recipe for spicing up these winter nights.... it is for
Mango Salsa
1 Mango (peeled and sliced)
2 slices of Red Onion
1 Fresh red Chilli (seeded and finely chopped)
2tbsps of lime juice
1 tsp sugar and salt

Combine all the ingredients and allow to stand for several hours before using... great with warm duck breast or with grilled prawns or scallops, it sounds delicious, I love mango chutney so this will make a nice change!

Tonight is mothers class at Brathwaite Hall, think tonights session is about embellishing textile pieces...
The bonus Ball is a rollover again! Thats three weeks now! Someone is in for a nice suprise if their number comes up this saturday...
Thats about all for now...better get offline and order some stock :-)
