Then a trip to a Portuguese Food Shop
Sometimes nothing beats Homemade Portuguese Cuisine
Followed by a nice Portuguese Lunch

On the way home some seafood for lunch tomorrow

And just before reaching home a trip to Garden Centre to close the day’s shopping with a gold star

And I think the garden, has enough this year
All we need now is lots of sunshine
I now, need to rest … from today!! Driving in London on a busy day when there’s a few sports finals on, it’s not easy
Love London, but love it more when I’m at home, in peace and quiet
Lots of sewing on the agenda
Have a great Saturday xx

I only wanted mint, normal mint….

Well I am not a gardener, would love to know so much more, but unfortunately don’t
So when a person like me, goes to the Garden Centre, always learns something, which is great, by the way.
I went there with one intention, to buy mint.
As simple as that, thinking of summer drinks, with lots of ice and mint
Well, I didn’t know there’s so many kinds of mint!
Wow, was so confused, but one that I didn’t even think it existed, had to come home with me
You would never guessed why??

I can just imagine a chocolate drink with a bit of this mint
Did you know this existed?
How come you never told me? Sad smile
Well, well sweet ignorance!!!
But it’s never too late!
Can’t wait to try it Winking smile

And also brought home what I really went there for
Just normal mint, this one for cooler options
