Buckwheat pancakes and bacon for breakfast, lunch in one of my favourite
little places with Agent Weasel, who has just turned ELEVEN (really good
fries for me, a ham and cheese panini for her), then dinner at the MIL's
place.

LOL. Had to be sneaky about the whole thing. I make some jewellery as a
paid hobby, so of course have materials around. Showed it (a bracelet,
not a necklace) to her this morning as a possible new design and what
did she think? When she said it was beautiful, handed it to her with my
best wishes.

LOL Agent Weasel indeed. Thanks for reminding me about buckwheat
pancakes. Haven't had those in years.

Haven't looked. Sunflower should have it or Whole Foods or Vitamin
Cottage.

Try the usual suspects: Sunflower, Whole Foods and Vitamin Cottage. The
Co-Op might have it as well.
