The Christmas Swede-A Tale of Farming and Thankfulness

December 5, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy 5 Comments

A few years ago, an old farmer turned up in our yard. It happens from time to time. He knew my father-in-law from years ago-my husband’s Dad who passed away just after our eldest was born. I had a chat with him and he also knew my husband’s grandfather. He told me tales of drinking, farming and … [Read more…]

British Lamb Burgers-Loving Leftovers

September 5, 2019 by farmerswifeandmummy 1 Comment

We always have lamb in our freezer. Well, almost always. There’s nothing like cooking a joint of lamb for dinner and knowing you at least saw it happy in its life. The problem is, for cuts like leg and shoulder, there can often be a lot of left overs. Rather than treat the dogs to … [Read more…]

Farming and world religions

August 6, 2019 by farmerswifeandmummy 1 Comment

My degree is in English Literature with Theology and Religious Studies and I don’t think I ever thought I would be able to apply any of this to farming-apart from writing about it. How wrong I was. The religious studies part has come in very handy since marrying a farmer.   It’s not just turkey farmers who … [Read more…]

Dreaming of Tuscany

July 20, 2018 by farmerswifeandmummy 1 Comment

Farming is a wonderful life but we don’t get to go on holiday as often as we would like to. I don’t dream about beach holidays as much as I used to because I don’t think having three children-two of them energetic under threes lends itself to hours on a sunning with a cocktail in … [Read more…]

Learn More About Food For the Sake of Farming

May 25, 2018 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

Recently we were on the motorway. I can’t even remember where we were going but we saw a transporter carrying cattle. We pointed it out to the children because, if we are behind such vehicles, we all try and guess which animal is being driven. It’s just a little game we play. I said pigs. … [Read more…]

Where is all the Dirty Veg?

November 27, 2017 by farmerswifeandmummy 2 Comments

When was the last time you saw fruit or vegetables with dirt on them in the supermarket? Unless you go to a farm shop, veg comes packaged in cellophane. Mushrooms are in plastic trays with clingfilm on them. Potatoes, carrots, parsnips are all clean. Even cabbages come with a film on them. The truth is … [Read more…]

Farmhouse Kitchen-My Favourite Cook Book

November 20, 2017 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

I have always loved cook books. When I was a little girl, my mum had a cook book which I used to copy the recipes out of and re-draw the photos. It kept me entertained for hours and I always dreamed that some day I would write a cook book of my own. It was … [Read more…]
