The Idea behind this blog

Recently I was given a jar of strawberry jam from the lady next door. She passed it over the fence for no reason, just a lovely gesture between two ladies on a sunny afternoon.

This got me thinking about the age old act of gifting ingredients. It may be that you have too much silver beet or an over supply of  fresh eggs. A lemon here, a bowl of raspberries there. Buying a special chocolate for a friend or a slice of cake that you know your mum would love. 

I think the sharing of produce is very much in-vogue, it is heart felt to see the gifting of ingredient's is alive and well. I plan to push it a step further by creating a dish from these gift's and share it with you, a gift from me to you.
