About Me

Welcome to the new Campervan Chef blog! This started out life as a blog called 'Kylie's Kitchen' and ran out of steam some time ago. Since then life has changed and Kylie's Kitchen as it stood is no more. I started out as an an enthusiastic home cook but now work as a chef and cook for others in all sorts of situations. You'll find out more about this side of me if you keep tabs on my scribbles on here. I blog about food and cooking, life, family, friends and pets. I will also be keeping you up to date with our travels to our second home; the beautiful Greek island of Skiathos and the dog shelter we support there. Join us as our journey through life continues...

Another day at the office

Spent a few hours down on the allotment again today as the Luncheon Club I usually cook for on a Tuesday were having an away day in the country.  I managed to clear and dig over another two beds; Numbers 4 and 5.  No 5 was particularly claggy and full of clay so I've left it roughly turned over and will wait to see what a few good frosty mornings do to break it down.  No 4 wasn't quite as bad and it looks like a previous tenant has tried to dig some good stuff in to help improve it.  There were the remnants of a half-decent potato crop still in the ground so the soil can't be too bad!
The already infamous No 5

It was an absolutely glorious day out there today, though.  I spent all the time on the plot in T-shirt mode and when I sat down for a coffee break it actually felt like I was sunbathing!

There's also good news on the Kylie's Kitchen front as I may have my first paid gig at the weekend!  I priced it up today and am waiting for a confirmation phone call after work tomorrow.
