Corner view: small things


This weekend I visited the farmer market. A little pleasure to go shopping first vergies, handmade bread and some fresh flowers.
Astebukaeran  merkatura hurbildu naiz. Gustoko dut merkatuko giroa, zeozer freskoa eta garaikoa erosi, eskuz eginiko ogiaren usaia eta lore batzuk.
El fin de semana me acerqué al mercado. Me encanta pasearme por los puestos, comprar de temporada, el olor de pan recien hecho y traerme para casa unas flores frescas.


Cooking something slowly.
Lasai bazkaria prestatzen.
Cocinar lentamente.
 

 
And I took a time to return to the childhood, when my grandmother used to have peas to peel. We used to sat in a small chair, and as we were hearing her speaking we were working. I took me quite long to peel all, but after, I was something like relax. Could be peeling peas the new yoga?
Aurtzarora itzuli nintzen iderrak desgranatzen nituela. Amamaren etxean, denak hortuko idarrak garbitzen, berak zeozer kontatzen zigun bitartean.
Compré guisantes. Enteros. Hacía tiempo que no me sentaba a desgranarlos. Esos recuerdos de infancia en casa de mi abuela, cuando de la huerta subían kilos de guisantes que había de desgranar para guardar. Sentados cerca de ella, mientras hablaba y nosotros jugabamos con los mayores. Me llevó un rato, pero no sé, terminé relajada. Será desgranar guisantes el nuevo yoga?
