Finally I found my camera cord (after searching in every
other imaginable place!) which had fallen down behind a chest of drawers where
the lump likes to sit and groom himself.
So it was great to be able to upload all the photos I have been
collecting in the last few weeks...all one hundred and twelve of them. Today
was wet and windy here at the cliff but I decided to take myself for a good
long stroll down the beach anyway. The sea was a foamy and the wind whipped
through my hair while I walked along popping colourful pebbles into my pockets,
this black sand beach deserted but for a few brave souls...the best time to go!
The latest job in the kitchen was making another lot of
spiced vinegar for some pickled vegetables. I am only making smaller quantities
at the moment so I can see what I like and what I don’t and changing recipes to
suit my tastes. I only use a new recipe as a guide line if I am honest and
usually it always ends up completely different but the one piece of advice I would
give is to taste as you go...taste everything!
And here is my latest addition to the kitchen...In total
about thirty large Agee jars which I traded for some fresh eggs. They had been
stored in a shed so needed a good clean but after a scrub they came up looking
like new and I am now thinking about what I am going to fill them with.
