1st July 20127- Is it really July already?

A grey morning awaited us with rain overnight but actually they need it here as the grass was beginning to look rather brown and dry.
We had breakfast and then went down town to Carrefour to get some stuff for the weekend and then came back and had lunch of ham and sourdough bread. The plan for the evening was to have grill some echine de pork if the weather stayed nice but Noel was struggling a bit as it looks like the sourdough bread is not suitable  for him but we continued with the grilling of the chops and opened a bottle of medicinal Chardonnay, actually a Saint Veran. The chops we excellent and we have found the meat from the private butcher installed in the local Carrefour to be extremely good although we will not try the steak as past experience has not been good with supermarket steak. However we still have some rib eye’s and sirloin from Costco in the freezer and so we plan a steak for tomorrow night all being well.
Unfortunately the effect of the sourdough bread was having a bad impact on Noel and so off to bed he went as it was closer to the Loo. It’s a real bastard finding out the hard way whether your body will accept certain food as the effects can be quite upsetting and it can take days to get over it.
Let’s hope he is better tomorrow,
