This Mushroom Asparagus Pasta formula is the ideal formula for those occasions when you simply need something basic (however soooo great). It is made with regular fixings, vegan and fast otherwise known as prepared in just 20 mins!
So as of late I have a fairly unforeseen and welcome date. Freddy took a vacation day work and since the children were at school, I had no real due dates and the sun and was out, we chose to have a liberal 'us' day.
So we took a somewhat long walk like we used to pre-kids. The walk that took us through fields brimming with oilseed assault and grain, through glades loaded with sheep with their not all that infant sheep that I was persuaded seen me somewhat entertaining, by means of woods totally covered by bluebells (they are purple not blue).
We proceeded with woods totally canvassed in wild garlic, thought the kissing door (the one Freddy dependably opens for me with a kiss), along fences fixed with shocking stag head oaks and right back home.
