Tiny Pleasures #318: Unintentional Beans
One crop of broad beans means broad beans in perpetuity. This year's crop I put zero effort into, except for harvesting a big box this morning. Thank you for feeding me, mother nature.
Tiny Pleasures #317: Vine Tomatoes
Another Spring culinary joy is when the vine tomatoes arrive in the fruit and vegie shop, looking red and plump, like they've enjoyed some sunshine. The total lack of flavour in those terrible pale tomatoes that sit miserably on the shelf all throughout winter just make me sad. But the red of properly ripened ones makes salad
Tiny pleasures #316: Tuned Piano
I had my piano tuned today. It is an annual event ,yet every year I forget just how beautiful it is to have a piano that is perfectly in tune. Now my biggest challenge is to drag myself away from it.
Tiny Pleasures #315: Big Banana
Is it a sand bag? No, it's a big black banana. The kind that sits forgotten in the bottom of a giant's fruit basket and eventually will be made into an enormous banana cake.
Tiny Pleasures #314: Sunday Clouds
Spring sunshine, a glass of rosé and painterly clouds sounds like a cliché but is oh so nice. I particularly like the style of whoever is on cloud art duty today.
Tiny Pleasures #313: Saturday Night Bread
I don't know what all the cool people do on a Saturday night, but I've been home baking. All by hand - it doesn't take long and I enjoy the feel of the dough in my fingers. Now my whole house smells delicious and comforting.
