My Quaint Kitchen Garden (will be)

So here is where Iam going to transform my new Kitchen Garden in Leicestershire.  Not much space I hear you say? well yes, thats true, but under that white blanket, in months to come, all will be revealed… I have to say mixed thoughts at the moment in the fact that I think it looks beautiful with the snow but I cant help but wonder when I can truely get out there and get my fingers all green again?!  I do love our seasons in the Uk. I  feel a sense of proudness and a little smile when I see a glimmer of change to the next season to come.
  My culinary thoughts for today as I look outside to the snow, so many Ideas rush through my head.  For instance I think when its cold as it is today we automatically think…comfort food 🙂 Lovely breads baking, cakes, slices, buns even tarts and pizza breads. Hearty soups, stews and even I think risotto’s and fricasse’s.  The world (kitchen) is my oyster! 🙂

Launching Chez J9



To whom who reads this…



Firstly I want to introduce myself. My Name Is Janine and I currently work as a chef but ultimately want to get into food writing and other work, have lots of ideas! But that will come later ;-) So I want to begin another journey to see where my food career may turn in life.


Currently, I have a bad back/spinal injury from work so you have to bare with me in the fact that my writing will be a little slow to start off with. But as I have the time off at the minute I can still write but just not go anywhere to review. But I believe that I have so many things I want to share with whomever is reading about me. My mind is going crazy with so many ideas and views I have. So to sum up…over these next few weeks/months It will be just me being at home with what I can excite you with and the planning of my kitchen garden etc. Watch this space…
