Truly, there is nothing nicer than a house full of food, the shelves stocked, the refrigerator full. I've just done the weekly shop and I always feel this way after..very grateful. I never used to enjoy grocery shopping, it was just a necessary chore. But now, perhaps because I am not pulled in many different directions, or because I cook more, or enjoy healthy eating, whatever the reason, I now look forward to it. A fabulous saffron flavoured risotto is planned for tonight. I suppose you could say I have nothing better to think about!! But what is better than good food? Even when the budget is tight, food takes priority over anything else and being a vegetarian, it is easy to eat well on less.
The scent of freshly brewed coffee floats out of the kitchen, while Camille Saint-Saens plays in the living room, as I write. Its another gloriously sunny day, but COLD.. that poor daffodil.. snow is expected tonight, but maybe not in this area, we haven't had any yet!! I am now trying to psyche myself up for the (COLD) school walk that I have to embark on soon...
We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started, And know the place for the first time. ~T.S. Eliot Four Quartets
