It was the ancient Greek philosopher Plato who sagely advised \u201cNecessity is the mother of invention\u201d. And it\u2019s sure been necessary to be inventive of late!<\/h3>\n

To be honest, I\u2019ve been bowled over by the inventiveness and creativity of so many people, in so many ways in these past weeks. I\u2019m sure you have been too.
\nFor example, with the hospitality industry (as with many, many other spheres of industry) being effectively closed for business, enterprising foodies have, in many instances, been able to reinvent their production of food, drawing on and using their skills, retaining at least some staff by offering online or drive-through delivery of prepared meals, boxed fresh fruit and veggies and baked goods. To be more specific, I particularly liked the creativity of one restaurateur who was feeling dreadful about his sole supplier of organic, free range chickens which featured on his menus. The chef\u2019s concern was not only for his own business looking down the barrel, but that of the supplier, especially when he heard the supplier was going to have to kill and bury all the chickens. Said chef arranged to maintain his order, purchase the lot, cooked them according to his \u2018special\u2019 flavours, and sold them together with accompanying vegetables \u2013 for those who simply needed great meals, already prepared. Certainly can describe as a win-win scenario.
\nMuch has been said and written about these extraordinary times we\u2019re all enduring. I\u2019m keen to put a positive spin on it by highlighting how impressive the roll out of creativity has been in the worlds of music, writers, comedians, and indeed cooks and chefs \u2013 who\u2019ve re-imagined the ways they can reach out \u2013 mostly using the plethora of digital wonders we have at hand \u2013 to help keep our days as joyful and fulfilling as possible whilst we\u2019re all hibernating. The podcasts, the chefs making home videos of cooking classes, the musicians streaming live mini concerts from their lounge rooms \u2013 it\u2019s just fantastic!
\nAnd you know the one thing we can all grab hold of \u2013 that enigmatic To Do List can now be tackled with gusto \u2013 as we\u2019re no longer so time poor. Yes, we now have the time to actually do so many things we\u2019ve not been able to achieve.
\nFor example, tackling that pantry, the freezer \u2013 decluttering and sorting all the contents \u2013 some of which I\u2019ll wager are truly out of date! Having the time to explore new recipes, new cuisines. Another imaginative idea that appealed to me was the hosting of \u2018virtual\u2019 dinner parties via Facetime, Zoom<\/a> or other digital platforms. Dare I suggest you take this to another level by really \u2018dressing up\u2019 for dinner!
\nI\u2019m certainly encouraging everyone to dole out very, very generous serves of laughter, kindness, fun, gentleness and whimsy each day. It almost goes without saying that to share the chores, the washing up, and the dreaming up of menus – with everyone in the household \u2013 so that they\u2019re all involved and responsible for feeding us and keeping us healthy \u2013 is a worthwhile way to tackle the daily tasks. I\u2019m reflecting on how we feel when on a long journey, how the anticipation of the next meal helps to while away the time. Never more so has home cooking become such a valuable skill.
\nThis week I\u2019m sharing the most ridiculously easy, yet ever so scrummy dessert recipe \u2013 just cos we all need a little treat to look forward to. You need no culinary skills to create this comforting dessert. When I first came across this dessert I thought this will never work \u2013 but it does! The basic pie can be varied in so many ways \u2013 with the addition of some baked quince or apples, stone fruits, all delicious right now in these autumnal days. Glace ginger, or some rosewater perhaps?<\/p>\n
