I grew up in that fabulous part of the world, and I'm so pleased to read this post about your olive oil harvest. <br />My husband and I often drizzle local BH oil over our salads and treat it like gold it's just so lovely. How wonderful to have 28 beautiful litres of your own!<br />I can't believe that we read so many of the same blogs, Fox's Lane, Kate Berry, Gourmet Girlfried, Hillbarn (have you read Hilary's book, I'd highly recommend it, just beautiful). <br />Anyway, just thought I would say hi. I will now go and explore your blog as I'm sure it will bring back great memories of the BH region and probably make me think about how we really should go back and see family as it's been almost a year already.Calhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11707389131080919357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7306762801453084181.post-80866868084580637322013-04-18T07:44:05.985+10:002013-04-18T07:44:05.985+10:00Thank you Rachel, we are very fortunate to have th...Thank you Rachel, we are very fortunate to have the space to be able to take on such a venture!
