In the dead of winter – I know!! But there’s method to my madness…
If you fancy the warming comfort of chicken soup when you have a cold, be my guest. But if you feel yourself coming down with a cold (big difference: your immune system is still in with a chance of fighting it) then you need to get a bit more serious.

There are whole hosts of books devoted to the overwhelming health benefits of including more garlic in our diets (and yes, that includes kids). I’m no expert (or nutritionist), and doubtless you’re already well aware that garlic is a powerhouse ‘superfood’ if ever there was one.

At this time of year it seems you can’t move for ‘winter warmer’ soups of various (but usually familiar) description: Spiced Butternut Squash / Honeyed Roast Parsnip / Carrot and whatever... it’s high time surely to give swede a good crack of the blender, no?

“You need to get blogging – everyone’s at it!” my Technical Genius friend @tony_collins told me. “I’ll create some space on your website…” And there the ‘space’ loomed for weeks (you may have noticed?) Blog Coming Soon! Crikey – the pressure.
