The Fruit and Salad Season

So the summer is rolling in and we’re back on light meals and salads. I love the taste of salad, but only in the spring/summer. For some reason I just don’t want it during the winter and opt for heavier warmer foods. However now it’s great. We make up large bowls of salad, nothing’s getting thrown away, and having BBQs and light additions such as Quiche or fish.

Plus the british strawberry season is finally upon us. Prices are still a little high in some places as they’re few and far between however I can see them dropping slowly as the summer comes along. Also most other fruit is beginning to have the prices dropped, half price peaches in the supermarket, Jazz apples are just a month away (see Sainsburys and Marks & Spencer for these), fruit from your own country is just fresher and tastes sweeter than anywhere else.
