Foraging 2

The chef came back yesterday afternoon and stocked up on chestnuts. He'll turn them into purees and ice cream and whatever. I told him he was welcome to come and forage any time he likes.

He's a TV chef back home in South Africa- something he was surprised I knew- but you can't hide that sort of thing in a village. He says that being a TV chef is all fine and good but it's not like the real thing. One of these days he'll be ready on rest on his celebrity- but right now he just wants to cook.

And only the other day I was feeling sorry that our fields were producing all this good stuff that was going to waste...
