Last night we heard rumbles and saw flashes in the sky and it rained hard. This morning all was calm misty and eventually hot. Mercy dash to Super U Beaumes for milk and mustard ( and, well, a few other treats) then a visit to our dear friends in Gigondas. Lots of chat, slices of M and S Christmas cake (don’t ask) and a walk round the village.
As I was drying my hair this afternoon Nicole across the road brought round a vast slice of pumpkin from one she’d grown (the pumpkin)What to do with it? So I have roasted half and will concoct a soup with that and wait for inspiration for the remaining portion. Mme Moulin let me off 20 cents for my cake purchase and then added a free slice of apple tarte because one corner was a tiny bit burned. Such generosity in the village.
