"Are you still open?" could have been the title of this book - I would be a millionaire if I were paid each time I was asked this. Acorn Wholefood Caf ̌started in the hey-day of Cranks, and Sarah Brown - my heroine - was a lifeline. I learnt from her varied and interested recipes, then adapted them to create my own. The reasons for choosing wholefood as the key focus of the Acorn are clear: introducing the concepts and goodness of wholefoods was a passion I could not ignore. Acorn is in the building that my grandmother had a caf ̌in forty years previously, so I became the third generation of Blands to run a business in the idyllic setting of Church Stretton, nestled in the lovely Shropshire hills. A multitude people have passed through - some singing my praises, others hating my uncompromising attitude to 'wholefood beliefs'. Numerous friendships have been forged, and so many loyal customers. Plenty of the funny and incredible incidents that have happened at the Acorn over the years are here. Recipes were requested, even begged for, but I had no time then, and so much was in my head and hands. Unique and interesting meals could have disappeared with my retirement, and that would have been a great shame. It has been great fun writing and reminiscing, so please read on. There are a few rants - you should expect that from me - but I hope you find the life and times of the Acorn interesting - and please try out my lovely recipes.
