Jean Lewis, TAG cookery editor

Many of you may know Jean from her various activities, including running a Fifi sewing group. Many of you may also know that she is an exceptional cook with a cookery background for most of her life
Jean's story
Rob and I sold our farm in Wales and bought a property in the southern
highlands in Perthshire,The farm overlooked Loch Doin and Loch Voile in the
Braes of Balquhidder which is a no through road and leads to Ben Mhor
attracting a lot of visitors who are brave enough for the narrow road along
the loch,slight turn of the wheel and your in the loch,only one car in the
thirty  years we have been there had had that pleasure.
I have been in catering most of my life and it was the natural furthermost
of a large house in a fantastic situation.
Over the years we have been at Monachyle have done television work and
demonstrations.
 My story of how it all began and to the day we left and our children
took over, a long story and hope to finish the book this year. Very difficult
talking about oneself but finding it easier with the hope of  being published
at the end.  Enjoy my recipes, a lot used in my day at Monachyle, if you
google Mhor you will learn more..    http://mhor.net/
