So, I have left it far too long again...maybe I'll make it my New Year's Resolution to blog more often...or delegate the task to the lovely Vic!
Another Great Taste Award has found its way into our hall of fame, our biscotti won gold in the national contest, which attracts over 5 thousand entries each year. The Great Taste Awards are viewed in the industry as the foodie oscars...we're lucky enough to hold six...wooo hooo!
Back to the lovely Vic...Victoria Harley works part time for us, but in her secret other life she is a fabulous photographer...she took almost all the pics on our web site and the photos that adorn the walls in the cafe. Vic's photography can now be seen on the channel 4 food website, together with some TeaHee recipes from our busy kitchen...have a peek...enter Tea Hee into the recipe search and PING!!!! It's majic, this internet lark!
On Monday, we'll be launching a couple of new winter warmers in the drinks department...I'd love to tell you what they are, but all the names we keep coming up with.....sound.........well........dodgy..Suggestions on a postcard please....
Cherif has brought the first of the Vacherin Mont D'or...hurrah!!!Throughout the year we keep the cheese counter as British as possible, but come November we relax the borders, quite simply it has to be the world's greatest cheese...yes... really.

Phew! What an Easter! No signs of a credit crunch in Easingwold- thank goodness!! Today most of the kids went back to school...and the yummy mummies were back at TeaHee, sans ankle biters!
It has been wonderful, after a long winter to have the garden open, although Rachel may not agree (16 extra covers) judging from the steam coming out of her ears!!
Tomorrow we have the York Press coming to photograph our lovely cakes for an article entitled 'Tea and Sympathy', some may say 'Tea and a fair level of abuse' might be more fitting!!
Just before Easter we scooped Minster FM's award for the best bacon buttie in Yorkshire. Ali B broadcast live to the masses, explaining what made our butties better than anyone elses..Great meat from S&J Butchers, proper butter, lovely local bread and Rachie in the kitchen giving each one her undivided attention....and a little kiss befor it leaves her department!
On a personal basis, I popped down to London to catch a preview showing of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert...WOW! The only problem is I have been singing MacArthur Park to the customers for nearly three weeks now...oh, the pain!!!!

I am getting a serious amount of grief for not updating my blog! Sorry...sorry....sorry!! Those of you who know my well will laugh heartily when I say I find it difficult to talk about myself....
I have just arrived home from gay Pareeee, which is, as they say, really beautiful in the springtime. Of course, I have eaten far too many cakes, pastries and Macrons, but the trek up the one hundred and eight steps to our apartment (and the 280 up the Sac re Co er) has hopefully prevented the pounds from piling on!
A place that is definitely worth a mention, although I wasn't bright enough to remember the name, opposite the Rose Bakery on Rue Des Martyrs, which unfortunately was closed on one occasion we visited...and nearly closed the second time we called (nothing left!) a simply wonderful patisserie with macrons in flavours traditional (Pistachio, Violet, Rose) and the not so traditional (Basil, Chilli)...yum!
Our apartment, in the 17th Arrondissement was typically Parisian, surrounded by boulevards full of fabulous shops. La Fromagerie, THE greatest cheesemonger was on our doorstep (Rue de Courcelles) along with busy boulangeries and chacuteries that could turn the most ardent vegetarian into a carnivore.
So, tomorrow it will be back to the grindstone. Rachel, hopefully will not have burned too many teacakes (or should that be Emma!). Dan will be driven to distraction by lunchtime as I place my requests for French patisserie....
