November’s Simple and in Season Round-up

December 1, 2014 by Katie Bryson 18 Comments

November's Simple and in Season round up on Feedingboys.co.uk

Hosting Simple and in Season for the completely lush Ren Behan is both a huge honour and a huge undertaking! It’s an insanely popular event that attracts a bumper crop of entries. But ultimately it’s a fabulous way to check out a bevy of beautiful food blogs, some familiar some new to me and see what everyone’s been cooking up.

Take some time to make yourself a nice drink and relax while you scroll through these delicious seasonal treats from the world of food bloggers:

    What an amazing round up Katie – I really don’t know what to head for first! I loved Ema’s plum liqueur and her Bigos, too. I also noticed a couple of new entrants so I’m off to discover some new blogs, especially Style Nectar. Lots of pumpkin still, lovely, seasonal crumbles, bakes – it’s like a cook book! Thank you so much for being such a fantastic host xxx

      Thanks Ren – I amazingly still have some of the plum liqueur left so some of it may make it to some Christmas gifts. Just made a batch of red cabbage bigos too – great colour. Love the seasonal colours of these recipes – so much inspiration from everyone 🙂

Beautiful little book the audience were all given Beautiful little book the audience were all given at last night’s performance of #Here from @curious.monkey_ at @northern_stage. Such a powerful performance from the talented cast bringing together individual stories of what it means to seek sanctuary in the North East, the friendships that are forged and the spark of hope that refuses to be snuffed out. With the plight of refugees so visible right now,  the timing of this performance was impeccable. #RefugeesWelcome #togetherwithrefugees🧡 #StoryCollectors
