Farms, herbs and chinese food

We had a slow, slightly uncertain start to the day today. What with the extreme weather both hot and windy we weren’t sure whether we wanted to head out. In the end we ditched our plans to go to the Sheffield “On The Waterfront” festival and instead went to, I think, Healy City Farm and bought some nice herbs and had lunch.

I’m finding herbs more and more interesting and they remind me just how marvellous this planet is and how much we take nature for granted.

Never forget!!

On the way home we stopped off at a fair thrown by the local emergency services. We arrived just as it was ending but it looked quite well received and busy.

When we got home I made another chow mein which was a little nicer than Friday’s. I used the rest of our homemade herb infused olive oil marinade to fry the vegetables in. I’ve still got some left. Top notch!!

I fed Branston our guinea pig a carrot by hand, it’s cute watching him nibble away. I want to build up a better layer of trust with him, as he’s still a nervous little thing. Bobbie the rabbit seemed quite sedate, I don’t think she likes this weather and is napping a lot. She seems ok though.

My girlfriend is now on the phone to a family friend and I am trying to cool down after doing the dishes.

All in all, today has been most enjoyable.
