Recipe For Curried Cauliflower Soup

A new farmers market has opened close to where we live. To show support we went the first week they were trading. I bought lots of fresh vegetables and made curried cauliflower soup for our lunch.

Head straight on to the Recipe For Curried Cauliflower Soup ♥

On our first barge trip Dave and I arrived in La Redorte without any idea of where the shop was. The handbook showed a shopping trolley but that was all the information we had. We used our intuition to find the supermarket, walking in the rain in the direction of the main road. We have also looked for people carrying shopping bags and walked in the direction they are coming from. This worked really well in The Netherlands. After our first overseas holiday I have made sure to look for all the shops we will need on Google Maps before we leave South Africa. For our most recent vacation I included the addresses and directions with our itinerary. The directions were not much use as Google Maps is not brilliant if you are walking somewhere. However, on this holiday I discovered Google offline maps which worked brilliantly.

Today’s inspiration ♥ Recipe For Curried Cauliflower Soup ♥ can be found on Lavender and Lime Share on X

You can download maps to the area you are visiting ahead of time. These are then available for you to use without having to be connected to data. The map is live in that a little blue dot signifies where you are. And you can search for places within the area. The only thing you cannot do is get directions. This means watching the little blue dot as you walk, to ensure you are heading in the right direction. We used this in Strasbourg to find a supermarket. What I did not realize is that the shaded area meant the shop was in a complex and not on the street. We learnt a lot about using this facility on the app and without a doubt I will download maps ahead of time. Much like making soup ahead of time as you never know when you will need it.Curried Cauliflower Soup

  1. Where would we be without google maps? We use it all the time, even to areas we know because we want the fastest route because traffic can be a real issue in Sydney. Love the sound of this amazing soup! 😀

    I also thoroughly check out maps before I travel and work out walking distances ahead of time. The beauty of technology! Soup looks yum Tandy!

  3. I love the little titbits that you include about your holiday. The travel tips are very useful. I don’t really like cauliflower but this soup does look lovely.
