September

10/1/2022

September has been another busy month in the B&B, with guests from all over the world. It feels so good to have business almost back to normal.  Now as we head into October, the pace of life in the B&B will slow a lilttle and there will be a little more time to catch up on all the little things that need done, time to embrace all things autumnal and time to be less rushed in the kitchen.

One thing that couldn't wait was marmalade making.  We use a lot of marmalade!!
I have used 'The Barefoot Contessa' recipe for a long time now.  It uses ordinary oranges rather than seville oranges.  It has a much more fruity taste and it can be made all year round.
Toast and marmalade (or a warm croissant with marmalade) is one of my favourite breakfasts.

My Mum turned 87 at the end of September.  She loves all things ginger and she also loves marmalade, so for her birthday I made her a sticky ginger and cinnamon cake and spread marmalade over the top of the cake when it was still warm.  It is a beautiful combination.  I also made a batch of 'pupcakes' for Penny, her dog. Four years ago, on her birthday, Mum decided to buy herself a golden retriever pup.  They now celebrate their birthdays together!

Penny is such good company for Mum but she is most definitely a diva!!
