Stopped early morning at Pt.Fairy & bought a simple BreadRoll with, “these giant beads of rock-salt on it…Exquisite!” Long before ‘salt flakes’ of ANY colour existed commercially…(I must certainly source a ‘MilkMurrayCod'; thanks for the tip!)

It is hard to think we want for much in the way of material things or little treats these days. I guess it begs the question what our children will reminisce over in 50 years time.
