| Keith eating snow |
It's still bitterly cold here but Keith the dog is loving it. Being a young dog, this is his first proper winter and watching him romp around and waiting for us to throw snowballs for him has been priceless. It also means he gets to eat crunchy snow - lots of it.

| Venison sausages |
Luckily, we have been having food with more sustenance than snow, keeping us warm inside. Spare a thought though for the homeless or the elderly who are not so lucky. I read a
lovely story about the Swansea City footballer Angel Rangel and his wife who drove around the city on Friday night, looking for homeless people to give food to that they had collected from a sandwich shop. The shop owner was going to throw the leftovers away at the end of the day but instead donated these to Angel and his wife to distribute to needy people. They found a shelter for the homeless where the food was very welcome. A heartwarming story not only about kindness but also about a better way of dealing with potential food waste.
As I said, we have been lucky to have food to keep us happy and warm and we are very grateful for it!
This yummy dish of venison sausages in red onion gravy is another easy recipe that can be prepared in advance and is ideal for a cold winter's day. Keep any leftover mash to top a fish pie or make into fish cakes, bubble & squeak cakes etc. Recipes for all of these will follow in the next few posts but for now, please click below to find the recipe for the sausage dish. I hope you will like it!
