Christmas shopping (or not)

Pilates this morning, followed by a bit of supermarket shopping for cheap gin and sugar. I'm going to try making blackcurrant gin in the same way I make sloe gin and it may end up like cassis, we'll see when December comes. I think I'll be able to use the sozzled blackcurrants as well :)

Froze blackcurrants and redcurrants, made redcurrant jelly then went to allot and picked the last of the broad beans, fennel and beetroot. The broad beans are really a bit old but I'm going to try the River Cottage recipe for hummus using broad beans instead of chickpeas.

Christmas must have been on my mind from making the gin so I looked at coach trips then and there is one to York. I looked everything up and I've booked it, not that I'm interested in shopping at all but the quilt museum is not far away from the hotel and should be open on the Monday morning. I've wanted to go there for a while but just couldn't get everything organised and I hate driving in cities so this is perfect. This is my happy pic.

Same food as for the last few days, green smoothie for breakfast, salad for tea, this would be boring except that the salads and the smoothies both vary in their ingredients.
