bits and pieces

Some more hits of spring

 Some colour

and a hint of the hosta

 This is what some people think of the green space beyond our wall. A place to dump rubbish. Last night some of the children set it all light and the fire-brigade were called.  Now there are bits of charred wood and soggie carpet spread over a large area.

My rhubarb dessert complete with low fat yoghurt and honey.

For those of you that love bunnies and hares head across to Soggibottom where there is a brilliant give away

Planting and harvesting

I repotted the tomatoes

 Transplanted some pea plants

 Harvested some lettuce and radish

and roasted some rhubarb. It took longer to cook than it should have done because they were rather thick stalks. I usually put it in a saucepan and boil it but done this way it keeps its shape. I added a couple of tablespoons of water, the zest and juice of one orange and the covered it in foil. The flavour is lovely. We had it with low fat yoghurt. Ice cream would be even better!

New cardigan

Grace is happy. She has a new cardi

Luckily the weather is warming up so she can wear it.

A hint of Spring

The garden is looking brighter.
