Dropped into see Shirley today… she had called the other day and said she went to the supermarket and decided not to buy much because she was liking my home grown too much!! 😀
So we did a deal and I brought around some produce which I am sure is going to taste a lot better than the supermarket stuff!!
Funny – I usually take Shirley some extra produce around when she puts in an egg order. We have plenty to spare and I just think its nice to share it around. Shirley told me that her daughter gave her a bit of a telling off for not giving me $$ for it!! So this had to be a business transaction (mind you it was a very good deal!)
I really didn’t give it a second thought – mostly in the past its been parsley because I know she loves it and I usually have enough to mow so why let it go to waste?
Who knows… maybe when I’m in my 80’s some keen young gardener will drop by with produce?? 😛
I spent the day giving the place a bit of a spruce up and then started to organise dinner as Kirrily came over to eat with us. Its been a while since we have been able to catch up with her properly and it was really lovely to spend some time with her. We rather miss her around the place – but she has her own lovely little spot close to her work so thats great for her!
Of course, she also got sent home with oodles of fresh food and some pickled beetroot as she became quite a fan of it while living with us!
So… nice and social, clean house, leftovers for tomorrow! Yay!
Hope to get back out to the tree tomorrow and start stacking all the wood that Jeff split today!
Have a wonderful Monday! Cheers!
