An errand took us out early on Friday morning and we decided to have breakfast in Fendalton Village. It’s no wonder Fendalton is often referred to as a leafy suburb. The mature trees there are magnificent, especially at this time of year.
We went to Crisp Café which opens at 7am on weekdays. This is somewhere I often lunched after writing classes at Fendalton Library. They also sell gifts and specialist groceries with a focus on catering for keto diets. My poached eggs on toast with mushrooms was fine, but the fact the plates weren’t heated meant the food cooled quickly.
As our weekly shopping list was short we thought we’d just go to the adjacent Super Value Supermarket. We were disappointed that they had neither a cauliflower nor paleo bread. so we ended up going to New World on our way home to procure these. Super Value did have the Kapiti Boysenberry mini-ice-creams which are our treat of choice and which are not stocked at New World Durham Street (although I haven’t requested them there, and could). I also sought Twinings Earl Grey tea leaves which are now a deleted line at New World, but Super Value didn’t have them either. I may have to request a special shipment from a U.K. daughter, or maybe I’ll consider switching to green tea.
Some things we sought were just not there
and so we had to go elsewhere

We usually go to New World Durham St (although occasionally to Stanmore) and this is the first time I’ve noticed a deletion.

Yes, I’ve been enjoying the Home St Good Seed Sprouted for over a year. Super Value is related to Countdown, and we found we couldn’t get Home St bread from Countdown online when we were in lockdown a couple of months ago.
