Food Forgetfulness and French Fashion

I forgot the potatoes and bacon for the chowder which was a bit much, but cooked the different fish in the milk with an onion, garlic, scrap of cinnamon, some dill and a few bayleaves. Tastes OK and may add some frozen peas. Bought some frozen soya beans a while ago for use in a Nigella dish and now can't remember which dish. Strangely, shops seem to have stopped stocking sage. Must see if I can grow some. Made some more bread today.

Saw a funny thing yesterday: two teenage girls obviously trying out a 'French' look - one had a red beret at a jaunty angle, and wore a mariniere navy and white striped top with a navy miniskirt. The other wore a red mini pinafore dress with a white polo necked top and navy long beaded necklace with a navy and white shoulder bag. Perhaps it is a fashion which has returned. Again.
