Welcome to Spade Fork Spoon. I’m Simon and I’m a husband and stay at home dad. After 15 years of teaching it was time for a change. Spade Fork Spoon is the place where I document the journey from the classroom, into the kitchen, onto my Brighton allotment, and now into the bakery. Along the way I hope to share the stories, surprises and successes that I have in this change of lifestyle for me, my wife and my two kids.

Cheers, thanks ever so much. Often check out yours too. Great stuff.
I love your blog. Such gorgeous photos and lovely recipes. I look forward to reading more. Your allotment looks much tidier and less weedy than mine.
I’m sure your allotment is brilliant. They’re such great places to enjoy. Thanks for your kind comments.

Thanks so much for the nomination. I’ll check out the post.
I read about you in the ‘kitchen Garden’ mag today and instantly felt a connection …still recovering from 20 years teaching by taking to the spade fork and spoon….big time. All the best.
Hey, thanks so much. It’s been a real solace to have a space to go to, somewhere to be creative with no pressures, and have the friendship of fellow allotmenteers. The allotment has been, and continues to be, a great help in my recovery from depression. Thanks for the message I really appreciate it.
