Which food, when you eat it, instantly transports you to childhood?
I don’t have many happy memories from my childhood. Today of all days I went grocery shopping after physiotherapy. As I walked through the store I came across English peas in the pods. I brought some and decided to have some for lunch. As I opened the pods the peas were stuck in the pods. I pulled them out and ate them and immediately was transported back to when I was a little girl. The memories of sitting in the garden with my sister Lynn and eating the peas. Our dad used to grow them in his garden. He grew all sorts of things.
I love how you pull the peas out of the pods and they are sweet and perfect. We would run home from school and go and eat all sorts of veggies out of the garden. Our dad always wondered what happened to his peas. My sister and I would just laugh. What are the odds that I would experience this memory today as it’s the topic for today’s blog? That’s not a coincidence. ❤️
