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...

Remembrance Day

Bit of a lie in this morning and then up and out to Tonbridge Farmers' Market.  If you live locally and haven't been you really should.  It's on the second Sunday of every month in the car park next to Sainsbury's in Sovereign Way.  Steve Woods has done a great job building it up and it's now a thriving local market with loads and loads of stalls.

Lots of people there this morning and a lovely way to observe the two minutes silence at 11am.  So great seeing the whole place come to a standstill and amazing to share the moment with local people in a genuinely local environment.

We munched on a couple of very tasty sunshine pasties and then stocked up on my favourite Kentish cider; Dudda's Tun from Pine Trees Farm in Doddington.  This along with some lovely looking pigeon breasts, a guinea fowl, some goats cheese with stem ginger and some more with a chilli crust AND, to top it all, a bottle of 'Nip from the Hip' blackberry rum should keep us going for a bit!

Back home and a dog walk over the fields for me while The Woo and Sam had a clean round the kitchen then off to Cathy's house for a gorgeous Sunday roast chicken dinner with her daughters and a mutual friend, Lee, and his girls.

Now chilling out waiting for Countryfile to come on with a glass of wine.  I love my life!
