Optimistic Cro!
The difference between an optimist and a pessimist, is that the optimist enjoys himself whilst waiting for the inevitable! I AM that optimist!

About Me
- Cro Magnon
- I was born just south of London, but for the past 50 years I've lived in S W France. I am a painter by profession, and writer by desire. Lady Magnon and I live between an ancient cottage in a tiny village in perfectly tranquil French countryside, and a bijou townhouse in Brighton UK. In France we have plenty of fruit trees, all situated amongst a view that takes the breath away, in the UK we have a handkerchief sized patio. We also have a Border Collie called Billy. I try to treat our planet with respect, and encourage others to do likewise (without preaching). Contentment is a glass of red, a plate of charcuterie, and a slice of good country bread. Perfect!
I'm guessing they are both anchovy paste, or something like that?
ReplyDeleteThey are indeed Amy, but the price difference is staggering! Here I buy at least one tube per week, in the UK I'd just wait till Christmas (as most men do).
ReplyDeleteGuessing they're a tad upscale from peanut butter?
ReplyDeleteP.P is staggeringly salty too - I've just finished my latest pot - cheaper than Frances import, but not much.
ReplyDeleteWillow, I'm almost ashamed to say that Lady Magnon continues to eat 'Peanut Butter and Jelly' sandwiches. A reminder of her days in Washington.
