I´m really happy today as I got loads of stuff free from the local market. I usually buy there on a Tuesday as it works out much cheaper. Well, today I was looking for herbs but I didn´t buy any as they all looked a bit wilted so didn´t think they´d keep. However, I bought carrots with tops and turnips with tops as they were really cheap and there are loads and my friend asked the girl on the stall if she had any greens that they´d chopped off stuff they´d sold. She gave me a really big bag, far too many for me to use and said that next week if I brought a box in the morning, she´ll fill it for me sas they throw most of that stuff..I am so glad, I´ll probably have to buy a few things but they sell all sorts of fruit and veg so I don´t mind. So, they´ve got enough to last them for the next week easily.
I´m dying for the strawberries to come into season again as I love them and I want the boys to try them, they were too small last year. They do have them now but they´re not in season and not ripe around the stalk so you´d end up thowing a third away, only a few weeks and they´ll be ready.
Got soaked this morning as went out in the sunshine and suddenly we had a rain shower. Didn´t even have my hood on my jacket as I took it off this morning as it was such lovely weather....isn´t that just typical.
Think I´ll make another carrot load this afternoon. Same recipe as carrot cake but I put it in a loaf tin and don´t put any topping on. It´s really good with a nice cup of tea. Well, I have to get rid of all these spare carrots somehow
