  • Thanks Runny.  I'm being good and drinking water, not tea or coffee.  Blah.

    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

    Supper here tonight, oven chips, french beans, really lovely ham and fried eggs ... I've had a hankering for ham egg and chips for ages ... just had to give in and today, when the kitchen was being used for other things, seems a good day for that sort of supper image

    I love Ma's health tips. 

    My father used to insist I added salt to food.

    " put salt on that"

    " I don't like salt"

    "it's good for you , put it on"

    I've not added salt to anything since he died in 1975.

    Hubby home , so proper food tonight after another day of sieving slate chippings.

    Devon.

     Did you have those with mash or rice Hosta? image

    Mash, and onions and carrots cooked with the brisket....it's almost ready image

    I've been tidying an area by the shed to plant out the little rown seedling that's been languishing in a pot. 

    I'm beyond excited. Went out the back door, and in one of the pots that's by the steps, there's a couple of inches of water...and a frog  image image image

    Put him, and the pot on it's side, by the pond, and he's now gone to hide somewhere.  

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

  • Good morning, lovely and sunny again here although a little cooler - no bad thing. image

    Not quite sure how I managed it but have a jam packed day again today - book club this morning, followed by lunch, teaching at school this afternoon until 16:30 and then working at chateau at 17:00 until 22:00. I do get a lie in tomorrow though thankfully. image

    Have a good day all, hope the weather is kind to you all. image
