Cake and Cookies and other delights.

What else do our Merry Band of Writers want we wondered?


When potential buyers step into a house, the scent of newly baking bread, fresh ground coffee or a new batch of cookies should greet them I'm told. Not all at once obviously. You don't want to knock them out before they get inside...


So we like to greet out newly arrived writers with something similar. They seem to like it too.
So this is very popular
And so is this.
































It is a real treat for our fellow writers not to have to worry about shopping, meal planning, clearing up, washing up or (very importantly) dealing with other people's meal requirements. These always seem to come just as a tricky scene is beginning to fall into place, don't they? (Mum Mum, I'm starving...)

By the way, we ask before hand for food allergies, dislikes and things to avoid and we listen. Home made soups, pies, tangines, salads, curries and all the accompaniments are among the things we have produced.

And then there is coffee. As many of us know.....

I think a lot of us can relate to this.

Coffee (and lots of it) seems to feature highly on the list of what people want. We certainly do. This also applies to tea and herbal teas. You tell us what you want through the day and we will brew it! We also like to put out Fresh fruit, water and juice so people can help themselves.


Desserts.


I don't know about you, but I seldom bother making these on a daily basis. But on a writing retreat, well that's different.

And so did this.
Home made Choc Pot with strawberries and cream.



Panacotta with fresh raspberries and home made Sloe gin.
This went down very well





Ok, So we've dealt with food.
Next will be Location Location Location
