Introduction

I can hardly believe it’s been six years since we created our Adventure in Unst stop motion animation. Where has the time gone? We created the animation using a Hue Animation Studio kit we had been sent for review.

Our short film was played, and fairly well-received, in the local Shetland Screenplay that year too. Afterwards, I went on to help two local schools create award-winning environmental videos.

Welcome to Elizabeth’s Kitchen Diary, Scotland’s most northerly award-winning food blog.

I’m based in the wild and remote Shetland Islands, where I’ve been sharing my adventure-fuelling recipes since 2011.

As seen on Shetland: Scotland’s Wondrous Isles on Channel 5.

“Never underestimate the power of your own story. Life may have taken unexpected turns, but it’s never too late to weave new threads of adventure into your tapestry. Keep spinning those yarns, my friend.
