Soops place of refuge and friends

Hello kitchen people,

OH is at his Shooting club and I’m watching the film Brooklyn. Actually I’m having a break. I know the book well and I think the film is done beautifully,

I saw friends this afternoon. The strawberry and rhubarb cake went down a treat. I’d made jam as well and that was tasty too,

My eye is still sore so I’m putting drops in them regularly.

Have a good evening and sleep 💤 tight.

We have had an almost cloudless day but still a chilly wind. I’m snuggled under a blanket!
We have had to start watering in the garden already. We have a lunch party here in 10 days and we are trying to get everything tidy, the patio washed and the furniture scrubbed before then. I am doing as much as I can and the hip seems to be working well.
I hope everyone is having a good evening.

Just back from WI and a fascinating talk by our local garden guru about the challenges posed by climate change and the need to garden more organically. Apparently lawns are a wasted opportunity and, if nurtured, a waste of space which could be put to better use, Must tell the moles and rabbits which rather like mine.
