Warm days, fish, punctuality and Misfits

Yesterday was so warm that my library discussion group met outdoors under the trees. It's mainly old people, retired, because it meets mid-afternoon on  a weekday. 

Once again it reminded me of a quotation from a Miss Marple episode.  Two lawyers are talking abut her appointment with them, and one comments she's elderly, so she'll be prompt.  And again, by start time, every seat is occupied.  It's a lively and interesting, very  opinionated,  group, hospitable to new members like me.

Lunch yesterday was that lovely ginger scallion sauce over cod poached in milk, with steamed chard and carrots

That really powers you up for action 

And once home in the afternoon, the first day warm enough to sit out and read and smell the spice bush.

I'm currently doing a load of laundry using ivy leaf soap, and I'll report back on the results.

And the Misfits box arrived

The pita bread, blueberries and spinach are a favorite breakfast. And the ground turkey will join the pasta to become spag and mb. The shrimp will be cooked very simply, with rice and maybe that ginger scallion sauce.  It's all there. Apples for midmorning snacks.Many plans. 

Happy day everyone, enjoy your day, what are you reading? I've tried and rejected a couple of books recently, no need to review when I don't think they need more oxygen. 

That's why you only see comments on books I think are worth my limited remaining lifespan.
