Weekend musing

Great weekend - really relaxing. We had some good food, roast dinner on Sunday with carrota and of course, swede chips. I had another idea for a publishable diary idea. When speaking with a friend he mentioned that there is something very emotionally nourishing (no pun intended) about feeding children that eat well. As I watched my parents, N and the kids tucking in to the dinner on Sunday, I realised he was absolutely right. In fact, it is extremely satisfying for me to feed all members of my family. That is something that is lacking from various strategies for encouragin chidlren and adults to cook for themselves. I think it would make a great topic for discussion.

Allotment was great again. Went up on Saturday, showed Mum and Dad, and then dug another bed over. We have 17 (!!!) beds to use, and we have dug over 12 now.
