The2017Home Happy New Year! 2016 is now well and truly behind us (phew!) and we can all now look forward to a bright and shiny 2017! And bright is exactly how this year shall be in all our homes, maybe in response to how bleak the World is around us or just because we are bored of bland, whatever the reason 2017 is going to be the year of colour. I have never been one to shy away from using colour in the home, daring to break away from the interior designer’s neutral palette whenever the opportunity arose. Colour has been proven to have a great effect on a person’s wellbeing for the better or worse so when choosing colours for your home first and foremost make sure you are personally comfortable with them and if you still aren’t confident get in touch with a professional... ahem! If you do not want to go too bold with your colour choices you will be pleased to know that pastels are going to be big this year. Soft shades of purples, pinks and yellows are going to be particularly popular. I apologise if you like so many have just painted your whole house grey but you are going to be getting the brushes and rollers out again. These dark tones will be replaced by dirty teals, blues, greens and burgundy. If you really have to stick to the neutral tones choose a brown, anything from dark chocolate to camel is going to go this year. The last colour trend prediction I am making for 2017 is the return of the Mediterranean palette. Warming shade of terracotta and chili reds are going to be everywhere this year. These colours used in a geometric design would be considered the pinnacle of style this year.
With the exception of colour what else can you expect for your home in 2017? Cork is going to replace the blackboard wall trend and will also appear as an accent on home accessories. Greenery is going to be big, not just the colour but real life greenery will be making a return from the garden to inside the home, motifs will also be printed on textiles, wallpaper etc. The most important trend for the home that will come from 2017 is individualism. This is the year we take back our homes from magnolia and make them our own creations.
Have fun!

RECIPE • 19
Apple, Parsnip & Cheddar Soup It’s genuinely miserable weather out there – a proper January. Today is snuggling up by the fire weather… today is pyjamas on all day weather… today is soup weather… roast bramley apple, parsnip and cheddar soup! It’s not every day that you think of using apples in a huge array of savoury dishes but here we’ve been asked to really think about how they will work in both savoury and sweet dishes and not just as an addition but as a main ingredient, starring in the dish in their own right. I have of course made many a parsnip soup and I had a suspicion that the sweetness of the parsnip would work really well with the bitter-sweetness of the bramley. Roasting all the vegetables together has given everything a wonderful nutty flavour and of course makes the whole cooking process really simple. The cheddar, which needs to be vintage or very strong, simply rounds the whole dish out adding it’s own nuttiness which compliments the apples beautifully… And if you’re still wondering if this combo of flavours works, then think of the classic orange and carrot soup… this soup has that wonderful fruity and earthy tang to it… totally divine!
1 large bramley apple – peeled, cored and cut into large wedges 2 large parsnips – peeled and roughly chopped 3 new potatoes – chopped 1 medium onion – peeled and chopped a handful of fresh lemon thyme or regular thyme olive oil a splash of white wine – optional 1 litre good quality vegetable stock 150g strong cheddar – finely grated
Pre-heat the oven to 160C. Place all the veg and apples, along with the herbs and a good sprinkling of olive oil into a large oven-proof dish, season well with salt and pepper and mix it all together – using your hands is probably best here. Roast in the oven for roughly 20 mins – you want a good dark golden colour on the veg and the apples will turn to mush. When your veg is gloriously golden, heat a little olive oil and butter in a soup pan and tip the veg into the pan, then drizzle a dash of white wine into the roasting tin and using a wooden spoon, stir around any caramelised bits that have been left behind and then pour this into the soup pan with the veg. Let the veg and wine bubble strongly for about 5 mins but make sure that you stir it regularly so the bottom doesn’t burn but that it all caramelises beautifully, then pour in the stock, place a lid on, turn down the heat and let it simmer gently for 20 mins then set it aside to cool till lukewarm. Add a large handful of cheddar and then blitz it all together with a stick blender and serve with some finely grated strong cheddar. Eat and of course, enjoy!
