Hair loss leads to cancer
Feb. 17th, 2019 06:01 pmThis week: A nice story about a woman who ran a marathon carrying a stray puppy she found on the way.
Also this week: I was given a lot — quite a lot — of passionfruit. I have had fruit salad topped with passionfruit and honey yoghurt. I have made passionfruit shortbread with passionfruit icing. There is still some passionfruit left. Maybe passionfruit curd?
This morning: On my weekly walk on the beach, I could smell burning eucalyptus. Coming round the lake, I found out why: the farmers' market was on, and there was clearly something special happening. Far more stall than usual, and at one end of the market was an outdoor kitchen surrounded by cameras. Not far from that, TV people, lots of them, filming one of the local Aboriginal elders doing a Welcome to Country, with clapping sticks and a smoke ceremony (hence the burning eucalyptus). And nearby, watching on, was British TV chef Ainsley Harriott.
According to the girl at the bakery stall, he is going around Australia making a show about markets and using fresh produce, and the City by the Sea's market was chosen as Victoria's representative. So you can look out for that on a TV near you at some point, and you might see me buying strawberries in the background.
