Another scrumptious meal

My lovely young visitors from Switzerland have continued northward on their journey, taking the midday ferry from Mallaig to South Uist. I would imagine that they will soon be exploring South and North Uist before they make their way towards Skye and Harris. Here's wishing them pleasant travels under blue skies.Yesterday evening, Reto prepared another lovely meal. This time we had freshly caught mackerel from Loch Awe -- a true delicacy -- on a bed of summer salads with tomatoes and avocado, sprinkled with fresh herbs, and an eye-catching nasturtium blossom that sent a crispy flash of heat across the taste-buds. Absolutely delicious. What's especially wonderful is that, except for the avocados and the lovely rosé, all the food was locally sourced and most of it organic. We like it.

Fruits of Nature

Hiya
It's been a very productive summer – warm days, plenty of rain, sun -- and my table has been complemented by lots of produce with absolutely no mileage.
Too beautiful to eat – almost. The lettuce, herbs and mushrooms were delicious with some potatoes dug up the day before.
