I really would have liked a place of my own but lacked finance. My husband was never keen on the career path I was following, working in pubs! So I decided to start a home-based catering operation. I supplied food for parties, lunches and dinners at home, and often to various pubs in and around the area.
The kitchen in our home was large and well fitted. We had a big utility room and storage areas in the garage (no car ever saw the inside of those walls)! All well equipped and ready to go, Country Cooking was born.
There wasn’t any problem with getting work. Three local pubs ordered meat pies on a weekly basis; a restaurant asked for a selection of deserts; there were bookings to cater for parties and buffet lunches. A family friend generously donated headed stationary and aprons decofetd with a lovely logo – sorted!
More on this venture soon. Bye for now.
