14May09 Duck Egg and Garlic by Colin

My mothers generation would have been shocked by the very suggestion that garlic tastes good.
As far as my Mum was concerned garlic was extremely sinful, made you reek, frightened horses, and lost an empire.
So,with great pleasure, and a childish delight in naughtiness, I share my love of the stinking rose with you.
Here is yesterdays painting showing our faithful chopping board, a duck egg, and a gorgeous head of garlic.
