One of the very nicest things about this office is the amazing eating around here. For instance, in the back today we had some rosemary bread, a bottle of olive oil for dipping, and brownies. And then a patient brought us Swiss (?) chocolate and a big jar of gooseberry jam.
The good doctor is a great fan of gooseberry jam. He grows and jams them himself, though local gooseberries are not at all the same as Russian gooseberries or English gooseberries. Moreover, the good doctor is the admirable sort who, when he loves a food item, tries to spread his love widely so that we can all benefit from it. :-)
Gooseberry jam is yummy. All we had to eat it on was the rosemary bread, and it worked--it added an herbal note to the fruit, sort of like adding lavendar to chocolate.
Life is good. :-)
