Food tips

When you are travelling, you should have a quick think about where your food has come from. When/if it is locally produced, your food is likely to be tastier, better for the local economy and fresher.


Buy Local Food : Take a child shopping with you, pick up one of the offending products and say quite loudly "Well we’re not buying that, think of the energy it’s used up just getting here!"

Arrange the remaining fruit and nuts in layers on bananas, sprinkling each layer with lemon juice and confectioner's sugar. Pour Grand Marnier, 2 tablespoons per glass, over the fruit. Cover and chill overnight to blend flavors. When ready to serve, whip the cream to stiff peaks. Add the sugar and 1 tablespoon Grand Marnier and beat to mix thoroughly. Fold in the orange rind.
