In 2012 I went to a Guardian food writing course hosted by Matthew Fort food writer & critic and Ann's Food Diary was created.
It has been great fun and 132 posts later the blog has travelled the world. We have also visited restaurants in our cities of Newcastle, Leeds, Manchester, London (& Wolverhampton of course) and celebrated the great Ulster Fry of Northern Ireland.
There have been food festivals, local restaurants and plenty of cooking at home usually fish or produce from the garden. The picture is my recent spicy squash & apple chutney.
Late last year we even had two recipes published in https://helenbuckingham-90286.medium.com/first-thaw-your-olive-oil-the-book-is-here-80ac48b48430
Helen's initiative for https://fareshare.org.uk has raised money to provide an amazing 14,000 meals. It is not too late to donate and get the recipe book.
I have realised that it is over 12 months since my last food blog although Ann's Food Diary Facebook page has been very active. Shorter posts, with more photos seem to be the way forward so (for now anyway) Ann's Food Diary blog is saying goodbye. Do please follow my Facebook page.
Thank you for the 90,000 views it has been a pleasure
