Went over the bypass to the garden centre this morning. The idea was to look for some plants for our three hanging baskets, two at the back that we look at through the kitchen window, and one at the front "for show".. Very mixed weather, sunny, cloudy, sunny and quite cool actually. Way too much choice in the garden centre, plants everywhere you look with their unpronouncable names in Latin or whatever. hard to make a choice. We eventually found some trays of mixed hanging basket plants so chose two of those, and one already planted up with a beautiful little flower called "Campanula..Blue Star" which is almost purple..Hooray! So we got those.
Had our free coffees for the month in their excellent cafe, inside, it was a bit dodgy to sit outside. Lots of older couples stuffing themselves it always amazes me where they put it all!
Went from there to Waitrose..car park with spaces..What's going on? wish it was like that all the time. Got my tomatoesand VT took the chance to get his favourite pasties and rice puddings!!. Bought some nice Madagascan vanilla ice cream too for a treat..I do love Vanilla.
Caught some Jackie Evancho this morning on TV. Blown away by the voice. And what a gorgeous little girl. Only ten when she came second in the America's Got Talent show, she is just eleven now and has the most amazing voice you have ever heard.

Such a sweet girl too, very ordinary and not at all precocious like a lot of American child stars are. Wonderful.

Gruyere quiche
Greek salad with feta and black olives
Potato salad for moi
Spinach and pesto salad for VT.
