      Today we went down to Madge's daughter's flat to put up some curtains (12' high windows) and have lunch. I pointed out to my wife that it was the first time she had entertained her mother in her own house in the 20+ years since she left the family home to go off on her world travels.

            I went out with T'other Half today to Armacao de Pera and then to a guy's place ten minutes from us. He has a beautiful manicured garden, flowers (a gorgeous row of roses going down his drive) various fruit trees and vegetable garden. He sent us home with carrots and a white cabbage.

            Regarding the carrots, he said he sprinkled some seeds in four pots, and this is what he got. :heehee:

            I am going to make lots of Coleslaw! :biggrin:

                Ah, doesn't travel well so you'll have to come here to get it. I do add a little horseradish to it. :biggrin:
