It’s Christmas in Windsor (apparently!?) + Chelsea Physic Garden

This Christmas shop has sprung up in Windsor town centre, next to the Craft Coop shop in King Edward Court aka Windsor Yards.

Slow cooked beef

I think it’s going to be a shortish blog tonight as I am feeling rather tired. The house smells gorgeous from this slow cooked beef that’s been in the slow cooker all day. I think I’m going to serve it with boiled potatoes. As usual I got all the ingredients out ready to start. AfterContinue reading “Slow cooked beef”
