Markets and Gardens

[Saturday 14th April]
Left the flat mid morning and went out for a bit of a wander. The main aim was to go and visit the Pimlico Road market - a sort of farmer's market which was quite interesting. From there we continued our wander and came upon another market on King's Road, wherein I sampled a very satisfactory (and quite reasonably priced) pie from a company who I believe were called Pieminster. I also bought some blewitts from a stand there specialising in interesting mushrooms.

After returning back home we decided to take advantage of the pleasant weather and sit outside in the communal gardens for a bit. Had a very nice time on the lawns with a couple of gin and tonics.

For dinner I knocked together a sort of hotpot, with the blewitts just lightly sauteed on the side. Not sure I was exactly blown away by the mushrooms, but it was at least a bit different.

Absolutely amazed you got blewits in Springtime. Where were they grown/found?
