back to basics




I decided to check out the Good Living Growers' Market on Saturday because of the dismal state of fruit and veggies in the supermarket and because it's just my idea of fun on a Saturday morning. What could be better than braving the cold and rain, sipping coffee and perusing the stalls selling everything from flowers to cheese? Nothing. Nothing could be better. So off we went, returning with a bag of salad leaves, apples (which are soooo delicious), a loaf of bread (so yummy) and peaches (which turned out to be not-so-sweet, probably beacause it's the first of the season). Then, we went to the organic market at the Entertainment Quarter and bought some garlic (a colleague mentioned that if there's only one thing you buy organic, let it be garlic) and beautiful flowers which are currently sitting next to me. The plan is to someday stop shopping at supermarkets, except for essential stuff like laundry powder. Today, i am going to have a Greek salad for lunch and angel hair pasta with parsely, red chilli, garlic, olive oil, pine nuts and parmesan for dinner. I do enjoy good, healthy, home cooked food.
