I Should Have Stopped - Marne Canal - August 19th

Cheryl once told me how her father advised to never turn down an opportunity - a funny thing to advise your daughter. But then life's made up of the experiences they offer. I am getting better but missed one today. The sign said 'Vende Truffe' and the guy was just setting up his stall on the far side of the canal bridge so he could catch passing road traffic.If only I had waited to see what he had to offer. I could have bought one to share with Sally in two weeks time. Now I don't know how long a truffle will keep in a hot and humid panier bag but it seems to me to be the ideal environment for it to double in size. But then I will never know. I did not follow Cheryl's dad's advice and by the time I wish I had I was far down the road.
