I put myself down to do foraging walks at work on Saturday.
A wander through the woods gathering spring greens,
then collect some fresh eggs from the duck shed to make an omelette.
(£2 per head to cover materials)
Sounds good huh?
Bookings for the morning session - 0
a duck (if you're a cricketer)
Bookings for the afternoon - all cancelled.
0 & 0 - a golden duck.
So what do you do with a pile of duck eggs and a bad attitude?
frittata party
in other news
my bottle babies are growing fast…
The auto exposure on the camera has gone for the detail in the black lamb
and given me some kind of 'look 15 years younger' bleach out.
But hey - I'll take it!
..and Mr A-P and I decided to whisk ourselves away after work on Sunday,
for a night in the Gower to celebrate our second wedding anniversary.
The weather was glorious and the beaches remind me of childhood holidays.
Happy Anniversary Mr Asparagus Pea xxx

You can't go wrong witha pile of eggs and some good chorizo x
DeleteHello:
ReplyDeleteBad luck about the 'no shows' although we are uncertain as to who, or what, had booked what. That said, at least you could escape to the Gower which we love, as we did your shell 2.
Happy Anniversary, if a little belated.
Yes - sorry for being slightly opaque. I have to provise garden/hort based activities for our events programme at the museum. Some you win, some you lose!
DeleteHappy anniversary xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Jo - hope your asparagus is bursting forth. i'm growing some from seed so it's very tiddly.
DeleteNow I would love to come to that frittata party! Looks absolutely delicious!!! And your little babies are just adorable!! A very happy anniversary to you both!! The scenery on that beach is gorgeous...the perfect way to celebrate!!! Happy day you! Nicole xoxo
ReplyDeleteThose lambies are getting quite boisterous now - they nearly knock me over when I go in to feed them.
Deleteoh no! no one came? what idiots! i'm coming to the next one!
ReplyDeletei love the picture of you and your babies...
You can be my special vegan guest consultant...
DeleteA pity about the ducks, but the duck eggs look great. Who doesn't love a frittata party!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the anniversary, what a lovely way to celebrate!
The frittata was extra tasty made with duck eggs rather than chooky eggs
DeleteHappy Anniversary! Looks like a better time than the last beach pictures you shared (I think there was lots of cold wind and seaweed involved). Those slightly green duck eggs are what ours used to look like. I forgot how big and solid they are compared to a chicken egg!
ReplyDeleteThe blue green of the duck eggs is soo beautiful - a little bit of poop notwithstanding. And yes - the weather was a whole load better than the last beach adventure!
DeleteWhat's wrong with people, why didn't they go on your foraging/egg hunt? Oh well - the frittata looks delicious, the lambs are adorable, and the beaches of the Gower are glorious (which one is that? Three Cliffs is my favourite of those I have visited so far.) Happy Anniversary! xxx
ReplyDeleteIt's Llangennith (just round from Rhossilli).I had deep fried cockles for lunch in the beach cafe and theyvwere heavenly.
