It was all going so well ticking off items on Ms L's healthy list this morning, except when it came to the Mediterranean olive oil butter she was asking for. Even a quick diversion to the nearby Waitrose surprisingly failed to produce this particular block of gold...I had no good ideas as to what this product shortage could be blamed on.

She also requested I pay a special visit to her local fruit n veg man to buy bananas as apparently these are much better than the ones currently found on the supermarket shelves.

As always Ms L didn't show even the tiniest sign of disappointment that I'd not quite managed her whole list this time round - I think the bananas from the friendly fruit stall man more than made up for the enforced butter diet this week.
