To ease us back into hosting, we held a private supper for one lovely lady and some friends to gather and celebrate her special birthday.
We set the table with pretty pink flowers and candles and selected delicious ingredients that showcased the best that Spring has to offer including delicate tulips, baby gem lettuce, locally foraged wild garlic, new season lamb and rhubarb.
Here's how it looked:
