Une Gourmandise

We arrived back at 1 am after three hour drive from Barcelona. The journey was uneventful except for the night driving at the end. I find the glare of headlights quite uncomfortable and headache inducing these days. I went to the market this morning to stock up with food and to find Mrs. TT a birthday card. I tried to get one at WH Smiths at the airport but they seem now only to sell sandwiches, drinks and chocolates. I got her some new walking poles and a Finland fridge magnet! I also took her out for a French version of a Knickerbocker glory in the afternoon. It was quite big so we shared it. She chose La Gourmandise which consisted of a ball of Paris Brest ice cream, one of salted caramel, one of vanilla, chocolate sauce and chantilly cream. I forgot to take my camera or my phone as I intended to blip her with her ice cream so all you have is the parasol umbrella that decorated it.!
