At home with . . . Doris

Doris has a favourite tea pot and this is itIn the early days of Mouse to Minx, Doris was unaccustomed to having much of a profile, preferring instead the genteel pursuits of cake baking, gardening and web management.

Due to the demands of the latter of her skills, and the impact of recession she has been a little careless in the publishing of her domestic diaries.

However, she is committed to keeping this - her very own column - up to date with news from the new garden project and also the small but perfectly formed kitchen at the temporary Minx HQ.

If you would like to send us your own recipes to try out and critique, Doris would be delighted to publish them for you, with all due praise and acknowledgement. Feel free to converse with Doris through our info@ mail address.
