Fondue, beaches and a spring fayre
I'm not dead! I just haven't been home much recently. I will try to catch up with you all now I'm around more! The upside is I've fit an awful lot of reading in :)
1. It is sad I have reached this point, but I am overjoyed at the fact that the weather has crept into the late-teens (celcius) and I can shed my outer coat!
2. I travelled to Geneva for work, and what I was expecting to be a very scary meeting went well.
3. But even better than that, I got to catch up with my Swiss friend who took me out for fondue on the lake. It was a very basic place that only served fondue and wine, but it the best fondue I’ve ever had!
4. We went to Jersey over Easter, and it was lovely. Great cliff walks, pretty beaches and best of all, yummy seafood in nice cafes overlooking those beaches.
5. And we went to Gerald Durrell’s conservation zoo, which I had been wanting to do since I read his books about setting it up years ago.
6. We celebrated the warmer weather by getting out the bicycles and riding to a local spring fair (or fayre as they like to call it), where we bought small geranium plants and hand made cheeses.
7. The newest addition to our vegetable boxes is wild garlic - green leaves that taste like garlic! A yummy addition to stir fries.
