Suprise

Suddenly the globe artichokes burst into flower just when I thought they would look really good dried. (See 1^st pic on Nov 26^th).

I am reading a Rosie Thomas book ‘Iris & Ruby’. Another excellent one. Quote: “Memory is not a recipe or a shopping list. Memory is the scent of clear water at an oasis, the brush of lips on naked skin, a plangent chord”.
