Ragdale Hall's Christmas Gift Guide

Sirana Gligora Paški Sir Cheese is an exceptionally fine tasting hard cheese from Croatia
It is a sheep's milk cheese and it is a very hard cheese with an absolutely genuinely mouthwatering flavour that could make a Christmas Angel weep for joy!
It is like the cheeses one recalls from a halcyon childhood of long ago, when cheeses had real, distinct flavours and you knew that the milk came from herds that were contented and well-looked after, and you also knew that the cheese was made by people who were proud of their heritage as artisan cheese makers and very careful about their craft produced specialist cheeses, who wanted their cheese to be enjoyed by true lovers of good cheeses.
For those of us who believed, as I have to admit that I did, that such things as cheeses with real tastes could only be found in memories of how we used to live long ago, Paški Sir Cheese has made me realise such real cheeses are still being made today.
It has been famous for many, many years in Croatia and to a handful of real cheese connoisseurs throughout the rest of Europe. Sirana Gligora Paški Sir Cheese is beginning to receive the International recognition that it truly and richly deserves!
As spokesman Simon Kerr said: "Indeed there was an awful lot of excitement during the final as we more than exceeded our expectations with our success!"

It is a must for any discerning cheeseboard.

Poppy Treffry New Christmas Collection
Poppy Treffry Christmas Collection 2011
Poppy Treffry has launched a new Christmas collection. Her tea and egg cosies have figures from the Nativity, including an angel, shepherd and kings. Poppy reveals that "the inspiration for this new range came from my own childhood memories of setting out the nativity scene at home each Christmas".
The tea cosy is red and the egg cosies are available in assorted colours. To complete the set there is also a Nativity stocking. Egg cosies are £14.50. Tea cosy and stocking both £48. Poppy’s distinctive cosy designs are all hand made in her workshops in Cornwall.
A great idea for children is the Christmas Card Nativity postcard set. The images on each card can pop out to be made in to individual stand up figures that can then be used as part of the festive decorations around the house or in a child’s bedroom. Each set is £4.50. Poppy has put other designs on to paper with a range of new Christmas cards too. Like the cosies these little figures can become part of the family decorations year after year.
This summer Poppy started her craft courses to teach the basics of freehand machine embroidery and come away from the day with a completed project. Each course runs from 10am to 5pm and includes lunch, £95 per person. With Christmas in mind the two courses in December will involve making a stocking. It’s a good idea to book early, dates to be confirmed.
