Well hi there in foodie-land i have a free day today mmmmmmmmmm a little tired as i have been working lots in the last few days cocktail parties,dinners you know all the things people love to go to and be entertained.
Sooooooooo how shall I start the day ? breakfast ? a cup of herbal tea is in order I think................garden looks 'great' as i look out of the windows, rained quite heavily last night gave the plants a big drink the herbs and vegies look great too. Cool i shall fill up the empty spots with the tomato seedlings (that have been sitting for a couple of weeks in the pot) and i will go out and purchase some basil to join the tomatos now there is a heavenly match( oh yes don't forget the boconcini and virgin olive oil mmmmmm that wont grow in the garden !! no but nice lunch idea with fresh custy bread).
Finished the tea in the car out i go of to the 'Fish Markets'. Now there is a busy metropolis on a sunday.What a great place love to wonder around in here lots of people buying fresh fish etc.........you know it is 'fish sunday'
