Welsh projects for dollhouses, roomboxes and dioramas

This page describes Welsh projects.

Traditional Welsh food
Laverbread, not actually bread at all but seaweed, is often fried into crisp patties with eggs, bacon and fresh cockles for a traditional Welsh breakfast.
Welsh afternoon tea with Bara Brith (which translates as speckled bread), a wonderful sticky fruitcake smothered in butter. Or Welsh Cakes, a type of scone cooked on a stove-top griddle, or flat currant cakes made on a bake stone
Cawl is like a Lamb stew made with all the cheap cuts like neck and scrag end with root veg. A real winter warmer.
Leek soup - leeks are a national symbol
Corgies and Fairies - Pinterest search. Did you know corgies have a little imprint like a saddle and there is a Welsh legend that fairies used them as steeds.
