I love to cook. I'm a fan of flavours, textures and presentation, especially well spiced fruity dishes, although you won't find any of those recipes here sadly as I tend to use other peoples' recipes and thus deleted the ones I had saved here due to copyright reasons. The recipes I currently have here are my mothers' (Maureen Dewhurst's) old recipes that are ok and are here for preservation rather than presentation and make good comfort foods, unless labelled otherwise.
