Pink pantouffles and produce

I have guests coming into the gite this evening. However unlike me I have forgotten to record their phone number. I am so used to people booking through Airbnb or texting me, I forget if they ring that I will need to make a note of their number. So I know that there are two people arriving this evening, that they have two horses and that they are stabling them over night in what was the old municipal campsite. I know that they want breakfast and packed lunches, but I don’t know what they are called or what time they are arriving. I have written horse man in my diary, not very helpful!

Last night I went to the market at Quinoulrc’h. Strangely a number of stalls were missing and the market organisers didn’t know where they were. However there was a good atmosphere. In fact it was one of the stall holder’s birthday. She had had a very jolly lunch with champagne and rose wine. So it was quite amusing. I didn’t sell much but I sold something and took an order for a pair of pink pantouffles. I find it surprising that during the summer that there is such an interest in slippers. Maybe I need to make more of them and find a way of creating non-slip soles.

I went to the supermarket today. It’s something that I tend to put off whenever I can. However I needed to purchase some items for breakfasts and picnics. Amongst the fruit and vegetables were a number of boxes that were wrapped in clingfilm with items that are no doubt past their best. However at 2.50e they were an absolute bargain. So I have come home armed with them and shortly I am going to consider what I will be making. I will make a soup because there are root vegetables in there. I will though be making some other things too.

What would you do with my box of goodies? Are there items that you like to make with odds and ends?
