Little gifts are sometimes the best.

I won't lie to you, I've been struggling with doing the stall recently. Things have been very slow at the market since winter and what with all the family stuff I have going on at the moment sometimes it's an effort to drag myself out of bed and load up the car and set up the stall. And then a friend pops by for a quick natter and a knit or one of our regulars pops by for a chat and I remember how lucky I am to be able to do this. On Saturday I was visited by my friend B and a couple of my lovely customers, Chiharu (whose knitting can be found Chiharu's hats) and Claudia who brought me a small gift - four plump, juicy, sweet plums just picked from her tree. Ahhhh...perfection. Thank you Claudia.
