What's Growing on at Craigie's?
        
Love is in the air!
  
Are you ready for Valentine's Day? 
 
Fiona recommends some lovely Scottish nibbles from our deli counter.  To start with,  Great Glen Game salamis, Scottish cheese and biscuits and our homemade pates.  So easy to put together on a platter and so tasty!
 
For mains how about cooking your loved one a mouth-watering Aberdeen Angus fillet steak which has been matured for a minimum of 21 days giving extra tenderness and flavour? 
 If steak is not your thing, Rab recommends his mini lamb roast - just a small joint of lamb cut from the leg that makes a delicious and tender roast.
 
Simon has put together a great selection of seasonal veggies for our February veg box, making it nice and easy to complete an ideal main course.  Over 3kg of vegetables costing just �3 makes this really good value.
 
Paula is always busy baking special treats.  She recommends her fudge cheese cake for Valentine's, enough for two with extra for later!  Paula is also baking special cupcakes to order - all parcelled up and ready to be collected.  It's an easy sweet present for your Valentine. 
 
Sharon recommends a bottle of English Bubbly from Bolney Estate in Sussex, personally I like the Bolney Rose but don't tell my pals at the rugby club!  If that is not to your taste we have a great range of local wines, beers and spirits to complement your meal.
 
Sharon and the shop team have also been making up special Valentine hampers an ideal gift for the 14th.
 
The only decision you have to make is whether you really want to share all these goodies with anyone!

Our regulars will have noticed that Rab has been off during January. He hurt his back (ask him how he did it the next time you are in).  We are pleased to say that he is recovering well and is back at work.
  
Rab loves it when he gets a great offer to sell so I think he will love this one! 
During February (starts Tues 3rd) our Scottish Barn Reared Chicken have up to 50% off.
 
Drumsticks are 60p each, fillet �9.84/kg, whole chicken only �3.50/kg and mouth watering chicken parcels just �10.31/kg. 
 
Chicken is a great source of protein and is low in fat - perfect if you are sticking to your New Year's resolutions!

Is it Spring or not?!

Probably a bit early as it is only February, plenty of time for snow and frost yet!!

 However, that doesn't stop the farm guys trying to wake the plants and get them growing now the days are getting longer.

Our Mummy pigs should also be having piglets at some point through February as well.  Sign up to our Facebook and watch out for our 'piglet watch'.  We are planning to film the farrowing this time!

 The shop team have also organised lots of tasting and sampling sessions with our wonderful suppliers (not great for me as I am on a diet....), check out our Facebook site for details.
