It’s Blackberry season. Earlier than last year but then all fruit seems to have been. I love a bit of free food (who doesn’t) so myself and the kids have been off foraging. This typically leads to some very purple fingers, a few prickles and lots of eating but a few blackberries have made it

Flapjacks. There is no getting around the fact that I LOVE them. I’m not talking the treacle, syrup, butter version – that’s a bit too much for my tummy and my palate. The type I like is the not too sweet, fruity, oaty, chewy type. So I am constantly on the look out for new
