Madame Shawshank knows all the right places . I think I was a little blinded by the enormous display of tagines at the Essential Ingredient . Somehow I always manage to close my eyes when I see a camera aimed in my direction. I wished I'd had room in my luggage to take one of these little beauties home.
A book is much easier to pack, won't break ...and you will have something to read on the plane. I could have packed an entire suitcase with any number of excellent books from the huge collection but I carefully chose just one....The Cheese Room by Patricia Michelson.
Madame had prepared the most wonderful picnic lunch. We'd eaten all the seafood and half the cheese before I thought to take a photo. So here's the last of the washed rind cheese we enjoyed.
Now if I can just get Madame to come to New Zealand we can repeat our wonderful day this side of the Tasman.
