In honor of Black History Month, I thought I would highlight five Black female chefs who are totally crushing the food industry right now. Some you may have read about, or seen on TV. Hopefully, you’ve been lucky enough to taste their amazing food. If not, a road trip or two might be in order. These five chefs are doing some of the most dynamic cooking I’ve tasted in a long time.

🤔Did you give up #chocolate in January and have you noticed the #easter Eggs in the supermarkets available now? Did you know that yesterday was known as Quitters Day as the most likely day you give up on resolutions? If yours was chocolate- are you still hanging on in there ? 🤔 Are you like me flummoxed on why to buy Easter eggs in January given Easter is March 31st? 🤔 Could you not eat them if you bought them now? The market is not small so you can understand it from the retailer perspective Total Easter sales including boxed confectionery reached an impressive £640 million CSV[Nielsen ] in 2023, which not only underscores the economic significance of Easter but also highlights the consumer enthusiasm for Easter. ✅ 80 million Easter eggs are given every year My cousin used to have a challenge to see how many Cadbury eggs he could eat - not at one go ( although I suspect that’s a lot) Data shows January is not too early . In 2023, 42% of Easter sales took place in January and February, driven primarily by unplanned impulse purchases. (Nielsen) 🤔 So my question is do they eat them and then re- buy? or show solid willpower ? 🤔 Do you have favourite Easter eggs to buy? I look for Rolo ones for my husband and toffee eggs for my Mum. 🤔 What do you buy? 🤔 Do you buy Easter Eggs now? #foodanddrink #marketingandadvertising #marketingresearch #retailers 🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣 Liked this post?

A 'Scottish Oak Programme'. Great news. More Scotch Whisky Casks, for the future. As an aside, how many Scotch Whisky Casks, in total, are already resting, in Scotland? What do you reckon? Even the 'Scottish Business Leaders' I ask are always MILES out! The 'official' Scotch Whisky Association figure is 'about 20,000,000'. Twenty Million. I've been told, by very senior Scotch Whisky Figures, who know about this sort of thing, it's 'about 45,000,000'. Others, high up in the 'Whisky Industry' suggest even more than this, 65,000,000. That's Sixty Five Million. Whatever the true amount, the 'American Standard Barrel' makes up the lion's share of this. Each one holds 271-314 bottles (that pesky Angel's Share 'alcohol evaporation' and age causes the alarming discrepancy!). But, if it's a 'Butt', you can expect 670-700 bottles, from just one Cask. A few Distilleries use 'Port Pipes', which are even bigger! Hmm... Port Pipe Scotch Whisky, yum! There's lots of different Casks, Puncheons, Barriques, Quarter Casks, Port Pipes, och, loads. Suffice to say, the average Scot just doesn't have a clue about the true amount. Only one rule, it has to be Oak. Old, new, French, Scottish, American, second/third hand, it doesn't matter. This further complicates things. Convenient, or inconvenient, depends if you're buying, or selling! As they're not told anything NEAR the truth, you can't really blame the average Scot for being totally clueless here! Anyway, who cares? It surely can't be that important? Well, in Scotland, we've 'got form' in undervaluing our natural resources so, now we have one, that's GETTING MORE PLENTIFUL and ISN'T running out, it IS important. Also, as you've probably read, a 25/30/40 year old Cask of Scotch is worth 'rather a lot'. Scotland has quite a few of these. We mentioned that pesky 'Angel's Share' so science tells us, older Casks contain less Scotch Whisky and 'certain Distilleries' can flog them, at an enormous premium. Add this to the algorithm. Soon, a 21st-Century Cask will be 25 years old. Do you know how much a 25 year old bottle of Scotch Whisky is? A bottle of Glenfarclas is about... £200. A bottle of The Macallan is about...£2000! It's complicated but probably explains why a nice Cask of The Macallan is a million quid now and they have the best booze 'Visitor Centre' on the Planet. Anyone good at 'sums'? #ScotchWhiskyTruths

Thanks to Quia Bethea for thoughtfully capturing what was quite a reflective conversation for Cuisine Noir. While this article speaks about the rich legacy of the Golden Krust brand, it also sheds light on the hills and valleys of my journey and the connection to a family story that celebrates resilience, diligence, culture, community, and the power of staying true to your roots.

PE Teachers and Sport Coaches: Athletes can learn three valuable lessons from the patron saint of Wales, St. David: 1. Discipline and Dedication: St. David was known for his disciplined lifestyle and commitment to his beliefs. Athletes can learn the importance of dedication and discipline in their training regimes, staying focused on their goals even when faced with challenges. 2.Humility and Service: St. David emphasized humility and service to others. Athletes can learn to use their talents and successes to serve their communities and inspire others, rather than seeking personal glory alone. 3.Mindfulness and Mental Strength: St. David promoted a mindful approach to life, focusing on inner peace and spiritual well-being. Athletes can benefit from cultivating mental strength and resilience, enabling them to overcome setbacks and perform at their best under pressure. Yes I agree with Seren Kids all kids can shine bright like shooting stars #Sports #StDavid
