Warm with slight showers: 24C. Went for the weekly food
shop and then into Birmingham – Ali was looking for trousers for work, but didn’t
find any. I was looking for pig’s feet and I found lots! I have plans for these
as a starter pieds de cochon farcie
(if my French is right). [This counts as my daily exercise, too – we walked
about 1½ miles.]
We did some gardening – sharing the lawn-mowing. I still
can’t carry the bags full of clippings.
We ate:
Prawn & cucumber
on sticks with chilli sauce
Cold sliced duck breast,
pickled plums, cucumber, broad beans vinaigrette
Roast (rare) leg of
lamb, crushed new potatoes with shallots and garlic, peas, red wine sauce.
