The Big Nibble

Saturday: Big food shop day and The Big Nibble.

Pumpkin was interested i going to The Big Nibble in town but didn't quite make it. We walked half way there, he was quiet and held my hand. i thought that it might be because Bean hadn't come too but he just didn't feel well. We called daddy to pick him up and Bean came into town with me and Plum instead.
Town was full full full of foodie stalls. We didn't find any demonstrations (which is what Pumpkin had wanted to see) nor did we find any free tasting plates but we did find generosity. The fish stall were giving away the last of their paella. It turns out that Bean likes calamari and mussels, one lady gave Plum an apple (and offered Bean one of every fruit on her stall but he politely refused).Bean and Plum both spent some of their money on toys for Pumpkin: a beanie snake on a key ring and a bow and arrow set.  


Sunday: Returning to The Big Nibble.

We all rode our bikes into town this afternoon. Today we bought candy floss ("one bucket to share please mummy because a whole stick to me is too much, i'll feel sick" Pumpkin) We tried noodles at the Wagamama stall and Bean and Plum choose what they wanted on them: moomi (white radish) and pickled sweet red peppers were a new hit but they also tried pickled moomi, seawed, and a few other things that i don't remember.
We met the gemtleman who makes the honey that Bean likes and he showed us a photo of him all dressed in his bee keeping outfit and we tasted a new honey that he has (he also gave us his card so we can buy direct from him and return empty jars for reusing, he only lives down the road from us). And we drank slush puppies on the walk back. Pumpkin wants to make some at home.
We all rode our bikes home again carrying model balloon creations!
