Food Glorious Food !!
Feb. 13th, 2013 04:17 pmAt the weekend I was up in Yorkshire on one of my scheduled visits to spend time with my mother. She was in good form though a little tired on the Saturday, as she'd had a poor night of sleep on Friday, but we still got out-and-about. ..And I only "snapped" once during the whole time there LOL.
When I arrived on Friday the car-hire company had decided to "up-grade" me, and so I ended up driving this car. My sister christened me "boy-racer" for the duration, and it was very easy to locate in a car-park !! On returning it on Monday I made everyone in the office laugh by saying that I was sure people would probably expect the car to be first off at traffic-lights etc so would be shocked to see me and my mother taking it all at a stately pace ! Franco (
london1967) would say it's a "mid-life crisis car" !!
  
We surprised my sister by calling in at the cafe she runs in Leeds city centre, the church it's "attached" to I will post about in due course, on our way to what has turned into obligatory visit for a "Pensioner's Special" at Murgatroyd's.
Large Haddock, chips and mushy peas is my new favourite main course, I never have any room left for the included dessert LOL

On Saturday we drove to the outskirts of Harrogate to visit a fairly new venture called Fodder. My sister took my mother a couple of weeks ago to see what it was like.... she's been raving about it ever since..... It's rather like an indoors Farmer's Market..... reminded me of San Francisco's Ferry Building market slightly... They also have a cafe/restaurant .... the food was very good, service excellent too...
My "Farmer's Lunch".............

The interior........



The weather forecast was for snow on Sunday/Monday, which we got, but luckily not enough to cause any problems coming home to the lovely Franco !

.....and "who ate all the pies?" LOL, our newest garden visitor......
