Are you one of those people who loves eating walnuts at Christmas but then seldom buys them throughout the year? I currently have a packet of them in my cupboard “just in case” I feel like making a date and walnut or coffee and walnut cake and just occasionally I fancy a smattering on my cornflakes if I haven’t got any of the honey nut variety to hand.

I really wish, just for once, Adam and I managed to fit into a "neutral" zone! It seems we're constantly living in a series of heady heights or down in the doldrums and this last week has been no exception.

Having been searching for “eco-friendly” news on the web I came across quite an interesting article. I suspect that people living in Concord are already aware of this… If you’re not, and you sell bottled water in your store, please take careful note. If you’re not aware you could end up with a fine of at least $25!
