Trentham and Daylesford

















PB and I went for a drive up to Trentham and Daylesford today.  It was so beautiful.  Highlights of the day were:

Buying chai spices and fresh sourdough bread at the Trentham Farmer's Market and being given pumpkins for free at the end of the day to make soup!  Also the other amazing produce that was available there: olives and olive oil, preserves, wine, cheeses...  All so yummy and appealing to someone with Jupiter in Taurus!!!

Red Beard Bakery and Cafe in Trentham where we had coffee and a lovely lunch (great homemade baked beans), read, wrote, chatted and took in the awesome decor and general 'vibe'.  

Going to the galleries in Daylesford, especially the shop / gallery Can't Think Straight which has as its tagline 'Gay, green and everything in between...'  The art there is amazing and the person attending the shop told us about an exhibition opening that's happening at the shop in July - I'm working on PB about going up for it.

The lovely woman in another shop in Daylesford who told PB she was the spitting image of her sister, and went so far as to find a photo of said sister on her PC so we could appreciate the likeness.  She was very friendly and it was a simple moment of connection.

Going for a walk around Trentham Falls, and over the course of the day, just taking in the beautiful natural environment.  I need trees!!!!
