Speciality Fine Food Fair 2010

Olive Wood

We've just taken delivery of some seriously beautiful North African olive wood boards. I was going to call them chopping boards but I'm not sure thats the best way to describe them. Display boards sounds a bit daft too! Although they wood look superb with a couple of ramekins of olives on or a few lumps of cheese.

We're going to pull out a few for shows but expect to see the rest in the shop after the weekend.

The Silver&Green Cantucci Dunk off!

We're super excited about theses traditional Italian biscuits (or 'biscotti') that we received just in time to take to the Speciality Food Show in Harrogate last weekend. They have been made especially for us in Abruzzo, Italy. They are excellent with a cup of coffee or after dinner with a glass of sweet wine (try dipping them in). We have 2 varieties rite now Almond Cantucci and Chocolate Cantucci both available in 500g bags. They will be on sale in our online shop at £7.95 just a soon as we get a decent photo of them. Get crunching!

Taste of Edinburgh

It was great to get out in the open this weekend at the Taste of Edinburgh even if the weather wasn't exactly what we wanted (I made some poor wardrobe choices on friday leaving me cold and exposed to the wind all afternoon!) I was better prepared on saturday morning though and had back up too in the shape of the smiling faces you see above. Thanks Claire and Sam, without you I wouldn't have been able to drink nearly as much hot chocolate as I did. And thanks to all who visited us, your comments and your custom were very much appreciated.

Show Time

An electric srewdriver can mean only one thing... its time to put up the show stand, then take it down then put it back up again and again and again... We're about to head off for a summer long Silver & Green road trip starting this weekend in Edinburgh at the Taste of Edinburgh festival.

Oliver's Olive Tree

Here is a picture Oliver took of the tree at the bottom of his garden outside Nice. I thought it was very "nice" so I put it up here for you all to see.

If anyone is getting bored of my jokes already please tell me to lay off...

Mallorca Majorca Meeejjjorcaaa!

Isle of Mallorca. I love Mallorca, you need to say both out loud to get my foolish pun. Anyway joking aside this island has a bad rep unjustifiably. It has a colossal amount to offer both in terms of breath taking views, eclectic culture and gastronomy. Forget Australian, Mallorquines know how to barbeque!

Proper Packaging!

We've got a new gadget here at Silver&Green which allows us to take otherwise "done for" cardboard and give it a new lease of life as void fill packaging. It takes cardboard like the shot to the side and mashes it so it can be molded easily in to void fill. Normally I wouldn't take the time to tell you about something that really doesn't taste so great... but stuffing more and more plastic air filled cushions into boxes had been getting us all down. No more! And its rather therapeutic shredding it up.

Proper Packaging!
