We are a new Day Care service for adults with learning disabilities making the steps towards independence accessible, by teaching freshly made, healthy cooking.
The end of October at Skills Kitchen was all about Halloween 👻 🎃
We enjoyed Mojojack's Spooky disco, pumpkin carving with High Park School families, and our learners made warming meat pies with mushy peas and of course parkin to follow 😋

So, this afternoon I got home to find a lovely letter from @northernassist telling me about how they wanted to prosecute me for using the below ticket to travel on the specified route at a peak time.
I paid £1.90 less than the fare they say I should have paid.

We've had a fantastic week recreating The Emily Campbell 'Clean & Jerk' chicken burger with our learners! Thanks again to Jamie May and the #ButchersTapandGrillMarlow for sharing the recipe with us!
Here we are measuring, chopping and mixing our marinade and preparing salsa 😋

James and Simon are heading to Marlow in Buckinghamshire tomorrow on an exciting mission!

This week our amazing learners made a Persian rice dish called Tahdig with green beans, celery and cauliflower. Tahdig translates as 'sticky bottom of pan' and there were some excellent examples of crispy rice!
The weather has been beautiful so we've eaten outside this week 🌞
This week's Spaghetti in a vegetable ragu sauce, with super cheesy garlic bread, and yummy Apple Charlotte was made using ingredients we found in the Skills Kitchen fridge freezer, or provided by our @FareShareYorks partners - thanks to @Asda (Shipley)🙏🤩

Last week, with the help of 'celebrity chef' Jez, our talented learners rustled up Quiche Lorraine with a fresh and crispy salad followed by chocolate-drizzled flapjack 😋
It was enjoyed by everyone and tasted even better as we got to eat outside in the sunshine 😎
