walking 30:00 [1] 1.5 km (20:00 / km)
went to new local farmers market - small but happenin', got nice cherries, raspberries & 3 apricots. R-berries got a bit warm & squishy so I picked them apart into still-OK & coulis-worthy, did that, stuck 'em both in fridge. This is in aid of simulating a thing from a summer breakfast on a plaza in Avignon - they did not have yaourt, but they apparently DID have quelque chose d'autre...which was this Perfect Food in a parfait glass, basically a runny strawberry preserve mingled with some sort of dairy product, which I have imagined he called fromage frais. So, recently (5 years later, & for another reason), I bought some. It is NOT cream cheese, does NOT go w bagels (gah). So, I thought back to Avignon, got out a lil yogurt, a lil milk, some sugar & vanilla (which makes all things better), & doctored up this FF I'd bought - with the raspberry combo on it, we ate it til we could not eat more, yum!
Also today I tried to simulate spicey green beans w D's new dark soy sauce, onion, & copious toban jian - getting a bit closer there, but I fear I need some mysterious asian preserved meaty/fishy thing - there is a savoriness I have not yet duplicated - maybe I'll try some nam pla & garlic next time.
walked over to the park today, saw two dogs, blackberries along the back of Cortina are gonna be awesome....
