From this to that...

Last weekend , walking back up the track to our house, Cathleen and I noticed that there was a good crop of young nettles just ready for foraging.

This morning I gathered a bag full and this evening we enjoyed the fresh, green taste of nettle soup.

Easily done too - the recipe is here :

PS ; Today is the anniversary of both the 2011 & the 2016 election counts that returned me as the MSP for Argyll & Bute. Thanks to all those who supported the SNP & me - we and I continue to try to do the very best for you and for the entire population of this great part of Scotland.
