Well, it has been a bit of a fraught week, with airports closed, then open, then closed again, open again ........ so fingers are still firmly crossed that our holiday goes ahead ok next week - especially as we have bought the sunscreen and got lots of euros!
It was forecast that we would have some spectacular sunsets because of the volcanic ash. Although this sunset from the other evening looks dramatic, it isn't any more so than our usual ones
When I turned to go back into the house (before any of the neighbours saw me in my jammies!) I saw that the moon was already out
Last weekend, we had a trip to the garden centre to replace some of the plants that we lost because of the terrible winter. There was a good choice of hellebores, and I finally chose this one
We also got a new cordyline - but it will be a few years before it grows to the size of the one we lost - it was obliterated when the snow came off the roof. This time we choose a dark one, rather than the green of the previous one
Of course, we have to end with a photo of the Friday afternoon cake - another of Annette's light as air sponges - this time with apricot jam ...... delicious!
As it's Friday evening, I'm enjoying a very nice glass of wine - the weekend starts here!! I hope you all have a good one, love, Anne
