I grow organic food (when the slugs and snails let me!) in my back garden and my work allotment in South Birmingham. I experiment with heritage varieties, unusual edibles and growing from saved seed. I make things too, mostly in winter and mainly with crochet and I'm learning to sew dresses and follow patterns with some help from my sewing club friends.

Claire's Crafts: Crochet Necklace with button and sequens jewel effect
http://clairescraft.blogspot.com/2014/01/crochet-necklace-with-button-and.html
Wednesday, 15 January 2014. Crochet Necklace with button and sequens jewel effect. I love this making these, so much so that this is the latest present I make for my girly friends to go with their birthday cards. I like to use pearlised cotton to crochet with and adding a few sequins over the button stitching to add a little bit of sparkle or you can just add a pretty button you have going spare in your button jar.

Claire's Culinary Adventures: End of season nasturtium pesto
http://clairesculinaryadventures.blogspot.com/2012/11/end-of-season-nasturtium-pesto.html
Cooking inspired by growing food in the garden. Wednesday, 28 November 2012. End of season nasturtium pesto. There's a big frost coming tonight, hopefully it will warm a little during the day tomorrow, but I fear its the last chance saloon for those yummy nasturtium leaves. I finished work at 4.15pm today so I thought if I hurry home I may be able to harvest those leaves in the light. Sadly it was dark by 4.45pm so it was a job to be done with my trusty head torch!

Claire's Culinary Adventures: Preserving Foraged Fruits
http://clairesculinaryadventures.blogspot.com/2012/03/preserving-foraged-fruits.html
Cooking inspired by growing food in the garden. Monday, 19 March 2012. It might seem like a funny time of the year to be writing about this. Autumn and winter would be slightly more appropriate but I'm moving house in a few weeks and have been sorting out my freezer trying to use up those frozen foods before the big move to Birmingham. So yesterday I spent the day in my kitchen with these bubbling concoctions made from last autumn's foraged foods. Haw Berry Sauce (makes 300ml sauce). 500g elderberries, 5...

Claire's Culinary Adventures: Stuffed Gem Squash
http://clairesculinaryadventures.blogspot.com/2012/01/stuffed-gem-squash.html
Cooking inspired by growing food in the garden. Sunday, 8 January 2012. Do you remember the gem squash I grew in the garden last summer? Gem Squash - the intrepid explorer. Yesterday, I thought it was time to do my home grown gem squash justice and what a delicious dish it made. I just have to share it with you! As my boyfriend is lactose intolerant I stuffed his gem squash with my home grown Slow Roasted Tomatoes. Then I roasted them all in the oven for an hour at 180 degrees centigrade. Thanks Claire&#...

Claire's Culinary Adventures: May 2012
http://clairesculinaryadventures.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Cooking inspired by growing food in the garden. Wednesday, 9 May 2012. From day to day my sourdough starter went through various changes. As in the instructions I followed these were only described as lively and not so lively, I thought I would document them for any one else who wants to make their own starter and wants an indication of what to expect. The starter was really starting get very active by this time with masses of large bubbles a bit like the size of bubbles babies blow in the mouths. Th...

Cooking inspired by growing food in the garden. Tuesday, 1 January 2013. I think some of our most amazing meals come from giving leftovers a second lease of life. When we had loads of leftover roast veg, stuffing and crispy bacon from our Christmas meal, I made these. Roast in the oven (about 180 degrees or gas mark 6) for about 20 mins and hey presto, some great picnic food or a great veg accompaniment to a meal. You can turn left overs into something really delicious. Links to this post. It might seem ...

Claire's Culinary Adventures: Pickled Nasturtium Seeds
http://clairesculinaryadventures.blogspot.com/2011/08/pickled-nasturtium-seeds.html
Cooking inspired by growing food in the garden. Friday, 12 August 2011. Nasturtiums have really brightened up my summer salads this year with their peppery leaves. I think I'm hooked! If you haven't tried these flavourful leaves I highly recommend you try them. Nasturtiums are in the same family as water cress. And in my garden and my community gardens right now, the nasturtiums are growing thick and strong in great clumps with their cheerful yellow and red flowers in all their different varieties. Then ...
Claire's Crafts: A late present
http://clairescraft.blogspot.com/2013/02/a-late-present.html
Saturday, 16 February 2013. My boyfriend's birthday was a few weeks ago. I was trying to crochet him a woolly hat. I made a few things in my first month a mini storage box, a flower, a twisty scarf and I decided to make my boyfriend's present out of crochet. I had no idea what to make and he said he would love a woolly hat with a pompom on the top. Not wanting him to be without on his birthday, he had a handmade card and I baked him a chocolate cake with happy birthday candles so he was chuffed with that.

Claire's Culinary Adventures: October 2012
http://clairesculinaryadventures.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Cooking inspired by growing food in the garden. Saturday, 20 October 2012. It's Saturday morning, had my lie in and then started to feel a little peckish. Wandered downstairs and fancied something a little different and decadent. There was no crumble left :( which is my usual decadent (if a little naughty) breakfast with minimum effort! Bashed the frozen bag a little to loosen up a few blackberries and tossed them into the bowl with a few spoonfuls of porridge oats and some milk. Links to this post.

A place for stuff I make. Saturday, May 8, 2010. Stately bird on a pink background. I'm not sure if the roundness of his body translated with the ink. But I like the openness of the background. I have tried all three, with mixed success. I'm not sure about this one. I was drawn to this image because the chicks form such a nice little celtic knot. It also tickles me that these guys are toco toucans, the same bird as that obnoxious Toucan Sam. In all the Froot Loops commercials. Thursday, May 6, 2010.

Claire's Crochet Quest
Sunday, December 18, 2011. Saturday, April 23, 2011. So I've just realised that I'd not posted this Zentangle as I've been internet free for some time (and missing reading all the blogs I follow! So here she is. Walk the Line. I had fun trying out some tangles that usually use curves using straight lines only :D. So onto the next one! This was a challenge I enjoyed. I was pleased with the string I drew with my eyes closed, even though some of it was a bit rough (towards the top left). Well I've started w...

Wednesday, 12 December 2012. Good evening one and all, this is my submission for the big bead give away, a wonderfully kind and talented bead artist Lesley set several budding jewellery/crafty people a challenge, we were given a lucky dip bead/beads and were asked to make something. Of interest, I have chosen to make a handbag charm, shown here:. I was lucky enough to be sent 3 beads all in all, so with the final two b. Eads I put together a pair of earrings, shown belo.
