November 2011 - February 2012
Welcome I hope you all had a lovely summer and early autumn. As I am writing this, the sun is shining but the temperature is dropping. Only a short time ago we were basking in a late heat wave. I am hoping that whilst this magazine is being distributed, we will not need the “company sledges”; as we did last year. In this magazine, as well as the normal useful contacts (about 2,000 of them), you will find loads of seasonal events including where to visit Santa, Christmas shows and Pantomimes and holiday clubs. There are many more on our website calendar too www. tfgeastsurrey.co.uk There are two competitions, Champneys and Chessington. Good luck to all who enter those. If you are interested in making a bit of ex tra money by distributing this magazine three times a year and live in the East Surrey area, I would love to hear from you. See the advert on page 27. If you are star ting a new business, group or club for families and children in the area, please let me know. As well as a free listing I may also be able to offer you some free editorial in a new “New Business” section of the magazine.

I just wanted to drop you a line to thank you again for the Chessington tickets. My husband and I recently took our daughter for her birthday and we had a brilliant day! She enjoyed all the rides we took her on and found the animals fascinating - she seemed to especially enjoy the spider monkeys. It was such a lovely surprise to win the tickets (I never win anything!) and wonderful to have a family day without breaking the bank! Thanks, Stephanie”

Douggie’s Diary... Since I last wrote in my diary, we have been on holiday, I have had a sore earole and we may starve. I like holidays. They are where you sit in the car for ages and arrive at a new house, go for lots of lovely walks and sleep in new rooms. I discovered the sea. That is the large thing that has watery bumps that chase you up the sand and try to catch you and then they run away again. They didn’t catch me because I ran too fast. Holidays are fun.
ie
g Doug
A few days after we got home, I woke up with a sore earole. My mum looked into it very carefully and decided to take me to see Mr Vet. He started off being very nice and gentle. Then he got this large metal thing and wanted to put it into my earole. I told him what I thought; very loudly. We went home again. My mum said that I was a “moneypit” and that she couldn’t afford to buy dog food any more. Mr Vet gave me some big pills to take. I refused to take them. For a few days after that I got a special treat of a small bit of meat. I wonder if there was a link. I am trying really hard to do what I am told. I am very good at sit and wait. I am not so good at “calmdownyoumaddog”. I am also very good at coming back when called; except when I decide not to. They seem to be very pleased with me. I love to be told “goodboy” and to be stroked and patted; so it is worth listening and doing what I am asked to do … most of the time. My earole is better now and we still have food to eat. If it runs out, I will take Jess and Holly (my sisters) to town and we will beg. I particularly enjoy liver cake. Please give generously. I have overheard that there are plans to bring a big tree into the house soon. I think my humans may have gone mad. Who has a big tree in their house? Woof!

Kiddies mad turkey pies “My children had great fun helping me make these especially when I encouraged them to use their play dough cutters to personalise their own pies!! They also helped by cutting the cooked leftover veggies and chicken into small bite size pieces with a blunt knife. Sometimes I substituted half the veggies with their favourite vegetable, which was frozen sweet corn. This added colour to the dish and encouraged them to eat their results.” Ingredients • Block of readymade or homemade pastry • 1 or 2 handfuls of cold leftover vegetables • 1 or 2 handfuls of cold turkey meat • Basic white sauce {25g of plain flour/ 25g of butter/300ml of milk} • Ramekins per child • Tbsp of stuffing, optional • Salt and pepper • Optional 1/2 tbsp of any leftover cream
22
Method 1. Make the white sauce; put the butter in a pan and add the flour. Gradually add the milk whilst stirring until the sauce has thickened and smooth. Add some cream and season with salt and pepper. 2. Chop up the veggies, turkey and stuffing into bite size portions. Add to the white sauce and taste. Add more seasoning if required. 3. Place one or two tbsp into the individual ramekins and top with rolled out pastry. 4. Ask the children to design their own pie with the pastry trimming and brush with milk. 5. Place into a hot oven approx Gas mark 7 / 425 F/ 220C for 15 to 20 minutes until golden.
Full and sessional day care from 8am to 6pm for children aged 2 – 5 years Home cooked meals, freshly prepared on the premises Described by Ofsted as a setting where “children make exceptional progress in their learning - develop high self esteem - and are valued individuals” For details call Andrea Thornton or Tamsyn Hendry on

WIN a modern Magical
BLETCHINGLEY
Christmas for the whole family
IAPS, Girls and Boys, Day, 2 – 13 years
The Christmas Bunny is the heartwarming family story that follows Julia, a protected child of the state, as she is introduced to her new foster parents Patti and Scott and their son Billy, who will be caring for her over the Christmas holidays. Emotionally withdrawn, Julia lives in silence refusing to respond to her new family, or to others, and spends her time watching the movie ‘The Velveteen Rabbit’ for hours on end. When she discovers an injured rabbit in the woods on Christmas Eve Julia decides she wants to care for the wounded animal and nurse it back to health, with the help of the bunny lady, Betsy Ross. Julia’s special relationship with the rabbit and Ms Ross opens her up to the world, and she finally gets the one thing in life she had always wished for. To enter, for your chance of winning a copy of the DVD, send an email with the subject “The Christmas Bunny” including your name, address, telephone number and where you picked up your copy of The Family Grapevine to nikki@tfgeastsurrey.co.uk Full terms available at www.tfgeastsurrey.co.uk Closing date for entries is 1st December when 5 lucky winners will be selected at random to each receive a copy of the prize DVD. Winners will be notified by email/telephone and names of the lucky prize winners may be published on our website. The Christmas Bunny (cert. PG) is available to buy on DVD on 14th November, courtesy of Showbox Home Entertainment (amazon.co.uk).

Environmental Advice
1 in 5 bags of food shopping gets thrown away That’s not good for your pocket or the planet Perfect Portions Weighing and measuring food is the best way to cook perfect portions. Helpful tools include: Mug (300ml) - Handy for measuring uncooked rice. 1 adult portion = ¼ mug; 1 child portion = 2½ tbsp (as sizes of mugs vary, use these measures as a guide to see what works for you).
As food prices continue to rise around the world, it’s a sobering thought to know that many families waste up to £50 a month throwing away uneaten food. However we also know that cutting down on food waste can be a challenge, especially when you’re pushed for time and your kids don’t always want to eat what you’ve cooked for them. So to help you waste less, Surrey County Council’s Love Food Surrey campaign, provides helpful tips on how to plan your meals, perfect the right portions, store correctly and use up leftovers. Taking just one small step to reduce food waste can have a big positive effect on the environment and save you money too. We hope our tips will inspire you to take that step.
tablespoon - Good for measuring out portions of rice and beans. 1 adult portion = 4 spoonfuls 1 child portion = 2½ spoonfuls spaghetti measurer - Just fill up the measuring hole for the serving size of spaghetti you want; pasta can be measured with weighing scales. Weighing scales - A vital piece of kitchen equipment in helping to manage meal portion sizes. If you don’t have any scales to hand, weights are often given on food packaging to help aid perfect portions. store food ProPerly Correct storage means your food will live extra days, weeks and even months. Place a fridge thermometer in the coldest part of the fridge and check the temperature regularly. Keep the fridge at a cool 1 - 5°C and chilled food will stay fresh for longer.
the difference betWeen ‘use by’ and ‘best before’ dates use by - These dates are for safety and must be followed correctly; don’t use any food after the end of the ‘use by’ date, even if it looks and smells fine. This is because using it after this date could put your health at risk. best before - These dates refer to quality not to food safety; foods with a ‘best before’ date should be safe to eat after this date (except for eggs), but they may no longer be at their best. lovely leftovers If you’ve cooked too much, try to use the leftovers for another meal. To help, it might be worth keeping your fridge, freezer and cupboard stocked with basic food staples so you can rustle something up when you need to and use items up e.g. pasta, stock cubes, and bread. What a Waste Research indicates that Surrey residents produce about 83,000 tonnes of food waste every year with treatment and disposal costs in the region of £7.6 million. Just think about all the energy, water and packaging used in food production, transportation and storage, that goes to waste when we throw away good food.

Winter Clad Gingerbread Family Biscuits This recipe will make about 12 family members Ingredients • 350g plain flour • 1tsp bicarbonate of soda • 115g butter, diced and cooled • 1tsp ground ginger • 175g light brown sugar • 1 egg • 2 tbsp treacle
To decorate • 100g ready roll block icing – you can use all white or a selection of colours • Icing sugar to dust the worktop • Writing icing tubes • Tub of sprinkles – eg Barbie sprinkles, using the bigger shapes • A little warmed apricot jam for sticking – about 1 tbl spoon should do the trick
Method Firstly light the oven to gas mark 4, 350F 180C so it warms up. Put the flour, bicarbonate of soda, ginger and butter into a bowl and rub gently with cool fingertips to make a light breadcrumb like mixture. Next add the sugar, egg and treacle and mix with a wooden spoon until it sticks together as a ball of dough. Lightly flour the surface and gently knead the dough on the surface until it is nice and smooth and has no cracks. Lightly sprinkle the worktop with flour again and divide the dough in two. Take one to roll out and then use the cutter shapes to make your gingerbread family. Transfer them carefully to a baking sheet and bake for about 10-15 minutes. Check them at 8 minutes or so to make sure they are not burning. Once cooked, leave them on the baking sheet until they have cooled for about 5 minutes. Then move them with a spatula to a cooling rack. Once they are completely cool, you can decorate them. Knead your coloured icing and roll out on some lightly dusted icing sugar. To make hats, use the cutters again – place the upper half of the head on the rolled out icing and press down, so you cut out a semi circle. Fix onto the top of the bears head, using the apricot jam. Roll a small ball of icing to make a bobble and stick to the top of the biscuit. To make a peaked baseball cap cut a small semicircle shape using the very top of the cutter’s head and affix by shaping it around the straight edge of the hat, fixing on with the jam. To make 4 scarves, measure out about 70g of the icing, roll it out to about 28cm long and 4.5cm wide. Cut into 4 strips lengthways about 1 cm deep, smartening up the edges. You might want to shorten the children’s scarves too so they don’t trip up! Carefully use a blunt knife to make a fringe at the end of each scarf and wrap around the gingerbread’s necks fixing with jam. You can decorate the scarves with the writing icing. Use the writing icing to give your gingerbread a face and buttons - or belly buttons! Use a tiny amount of jam to fix the big sprinkles onto the scarves and hats too, for added design. Now, which bit will you bite off first? ©CookiesKitchenLimited2007

Swing Along With Monkey Music! Monkey Music, the award-winning pre-school music group for children aged 3 months – 4 years across the UK and Ireland, will be opening in Leatherhead and Dorking from January 2012. Founded in Dulwich, South East London in 1993, Monkey Music nurtures a child’s natural love of music so that it will last a lifetime. Based on an exciting and progressive curriculum, Monkey Music provides weekly music classes that are entertaining and educational, and is imaginatively taught by specialist teachers who gently encourage social and musical skills within a fun, stimulating and friendly environment. Classes are small and tailor-made, and the teachers make full use of the lively 30 minute classes to captivate the children using a winning combination of catchy music, percussion instruments, visual props and boundless energy, with lots of opportunities for the children to experiment with the instruments and make music of their own. Over 300 traditional and original songs, musical games and exciting movement ideas are used throughout the curriculum, with the children grouped in small classes according to their age.
