North Bovey

'Food parcels' is something usually talked about in terms of privations and need. We look forward to the food parcels that have been arriving for us over the last couple of weeks. They have ALL the ingredients and a recipe to make three meals and very good they've been too. 

The trouble with recipes generally is that unless you're very organised, you don't tend to have all the little bits that are so important in getting it right. Sometimes those ingredients may not easily available. With these boxes you have everything and it's easy to put them all together. It gives you chance to make changes in those routines we get into, in our house anyway!

This afternoon I decided to go up to North Bovey, it's a pretty little village but a bit away from everywhere up narrow lanes and I thought it would be good to go now before the summer traffic clogs it all up.
