Going, going, gone

We leave the house in Normandy, France on Saturday to start our travels proper and we’ll update the blog as often as we are able to.  If you want to follow us you can go to the blog and then select “follow” on the right hand side and then add your email address to get an email whenever we make an update 🙂

Mirebell plums

Although we only have a few more days left in the house in France, Bernard very kindly gave us over 3Kg of Mirebelle plums. They are small plums, though not really a looker. However, they are naturally sweet and with limited time we decided to just stone and then stew then. Keith tried some raw and a bowl of them stewed and both were very good; the below bowl was even a bit much for Keith to manage after dinner 🙂
