spring clean

Fresh peppermint from the garden, straight to the pot for tea.

Apples, about 5 or 6, thinly sliced and munched through the day.

A few pots of ginger, cinnamon and lemon tea.


This is not the most exciting tale to tell on a food blog but this is all I consumed yesterday. The previous weeks have been littered with celebrations – bottles of sparkling and cool sauv blancs on sunny days, seafood and salads, the morning hit of espresso to fuel the writing.

All this is gone for a short hiatus. So too is reading other peoples accounts of food or watching gastroporn on TV.

I documented my spring clean detox last September, so scroll back to the beginning of the month to catch up on the highlights. So as not to repeat myself, I’m taking this week off – til normal eating resumes!

My parting thoughts are – remember it is just food, nothing more, nothing less. It is always good to take a break from our obsessions.

Exciting it may not be, but your parting thoughts are spot on.

Enjoy it - perfect time of the year.

I am thinking you'll feel very healthy and virtuous when the week is over.

It seems many people are taking temporary a break from their food obsession, myself included. It's not a deliberate break, I just find myself outside enjoying the novelty of sunshine rather than in the kitchen. Soon enough I'll be drawn back like a magnet just to cook something.
