What does food say about your characters?

December 1, 2017

Do you have food breaks, treats or desk snacks to keep you going when you’re writing? I’ve become a stickler for regularity.

When my husband comes in from the garden. He’s just planted out my basil, parsley and tarragon too. 💚 #smallfarm #slowliving #inmykitchen #kitchenshelf #vegiegarden #langdalefarmtasmania #airbnbtasmania #tassielife #tasmaniagram #tasmania #instatasmania #tamarvalley #foodiesofinstagram #foodies #vegetablegarden #gardening #hobbyfarm
