My Grandmother Rose Colgan Recipe Notebook 1907

I found my Grandmother's (my mother's mother) recipe notebook from 1907, written before she got married. I'm going through the recipes and trying them out. Started with Raspberry buns! Fiddly to make but worth it.
Original Notebook pages 2 and 3
The finished buns I made last night. Delicious!
I cooked them at 200C for 10 minutes.
Recipe transcribed as written

Yak Yak dialogues

Yak Yak is a curatorial project that features newly commissioned and existing works by artists whose practices address rural contexts as particular sites for art making and cultural production. It places a particular emphasis on exchange and dialogue. 

This blog is a space for the art/farming/architecture individual, assemblages and collectives to develop a dialogue with one another.
