LUNCH WITH LINDA COOPER

Linda arrived for lunch sporting a new bobbed haircut  looking fantastic .It is always good to catch up with friends .
We started off with a cup of tea , while I placed two single serve salmon frittatas in the oven to bake.
Chilled Mateus Rose was offered with lunch in the dining room.
The salmon frittatas were served on wooden boards over a red quinoa wrap , with baked fennel and fruit chutney.
A simple spinach and pomegranate salad bowl was offered at the table .
We finished our lunch with coffee and over the kitchen bench we shared freshly made banana ice-cream .
Then off for a leisurely stroll through the gardens , Linda really enjoyed seeing the flowers of my very old and large Hoya plant.
I was surprised to hear that Linda had not eaten figs since she was a child , and it a real treat for me to pick fresh figs from the tree and send her home with sweet , succulent figs .
In the blink of an eye , it was time for Linda to head home , we had shared so much in 3 short hours .
Already looking forward to our next `catch up `.
Take Care . Bye .
